To hire software testing (QA) engineers in Florianopolis, Brazil, Pitch N Hire supplies vetted manual and automation testers — primarily from India — through staff augmentation, or recruits QA talent for your local Florianopolis roles. You get testers skilled in Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, API and performance testing, integrated into your team on overlapping hours, without a local entity.
Software testing (QA) engineers verify that software works correctly, safely and at scale — spanning manual exploratory testing, test automation, API and integration testing, performance and security testing, and release quality gates. Pitch N Hire helps you add QA capacity two honest ways: staff augmentation, where vetted India-based testers join your team under your direction (skills across Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Appium, REST-assured, JMeter/k6 and CI test pipelines), employed via PNH's Employer of Record; or recruitment services to source and screen QA candidates for roles based in your city. Adding dedicated testers is one of the highest-leverage ways to raise release quality and free developers to build, and offshore augmentation makes it cost-effective to staff QA at the ratio a fast-shipping team really needs.
We scope the testing you need — manual, automation, API, performance or security — plus the stack, tools and CI pipeline your team uses, and the seniority and ratio of testers to developers.
PNH returns vetted manual and automation testers from its India pool, screened for the exact frameworks (Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Appium, JMeter) and domain experience you need.
You interview and select the testers, using practical assessments so you can see real automation and test-design skill, not just résumés — you keep control of every hire.
Selected testers are employed through PNH's Employer of Record and onboarded into your repositories, test suites, CI and release process, so they add quality coverage quickly.
As the product grows you add or adjust QA capacity, building automation, raising coverage and protecting releases — while PNH handles employment and compliance.
Pitch N Hire can supply testers across the full quality-engineering spectrum:
Florianopolis, the island capital of Santa Catarina, has grown into one of Brazil's most notable technology hubs, driven by an exceptional quality of life that attracts and retains developers. It has a mature SaaS and startup ecosystem, a strong software-services sector and a reputation as a magnet for remote-first tech talent from across Brazil. Demand centres on product, web and cloud engineers, and the city's lifestyle pull helps employers attract candidates who might otherwise cluster in Sao Paulo.
Florianopolis talent is strong in SaaS product engineering, web and full-stack development, cloud and DevOps, with a notable concentration of software-services and remote-first professionals. Common stacks include JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, Python, .NET and cloud platforms. The pool is high-quality and sticky thanks to lifestyle draw, though smaller than the major metros, so niche senior roles can be competitive and reward a focused, well-run hiring process.
Florianopolis developer salaries are competitive for Brazil while generally below Sao Paulo, with senior software engineers often around R$140k–R$240k per year. The lifestyle premium helps retention, so employers compete more on culture and flexibility than on headline pay; structured recruitment reaches the best candidates quickly, and offshore India augmentation can add capacity when local supply is tight.
Floripa's strong, retention-friendly local pool makes Brazilian recruitment the natural first step, but PNH can add vetted India-based engineers via staff augmentation and its India-first Employer of Record for extra scale or specialist skills. The India-Floripa time gap of about 8.5 hours limits synchronous overlap, so offshore pods here fit specialist or asynchronous workstreams rather than fully live teams.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Florianopolis team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
