To hire software testing (QA) engineers in Quebec City, Canada, Pitch N Hire supplies vetted manual and automation testers — primarily from India — through staff augmentation, or recruits QA talent for your local Quebec City 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:
Quebec City's technology economy rests on three pillars: a well-known game-development and interactive-media cluster seeded by a major Ubisoft studio and independent studios; a dense concentration of insurance and financial-services head offices that run large in-house IT; and a growing applied-AI and optics-photonics research base tied to Université Laval. This mix sustains steady demand for software, data and game engineers in a predominantly French-speaking market.
Quebec City talent is strong in game and real-time-graphics engineering, insurance and financial software, and applied AI, with C++, C#, .NET, Java and data skills common, supported by Université Laval. The workforce is largely bilingual-leaning-French with high retention and lower turnover than Montreal, but the specialised games and senior enterprise pools are finite — leading many teams to extend delivery capacity offshore.
Quebec City developer salaries generally run below Montreal and well under Toronto, with senior software engineers often around C$90k–C$125k, reflecting low living costs and a stable market. Employers scaling game, insurance or platform delivery beyond the local pool frequently pair local Quebec City hires with offshore India-based engineers through PNH to add capacity at a lower blended cost.
For Quebec City's game studios, insurers and product teams, PNH assembles an offshore pod of vetted India-based engineers employed through an Employer of Record, aligned to Eastern-time morning overlap for daily coordination. They handle general application, tooling and back-end delivery so scarce game-engine and senior enterprise specialists concentrate on the core, domain-heavy work.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Quebec City 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.
