“At the start of my Ubisoft journey, I was surprised to see how video games are tested and how they become ready to be played and enjoyed by so many players.

For me, the most challenging part was learning to test Ubisoft games on all the available gaming platforms. One project that will always remain in my memory is South Park on Switch, which was a new console released by Nintendo at that time.
My goal is to identify and submit all issues – issues like what I encounter as a normal user, issues that alter my gameplay. In my personal experience as a gamer, I’ve always encountered various blockers due to my style of (“often chaotic”) play.
