To hire software testing (QA) engineers in Athens, Greece, Pitch N Hire supplies vetted manual and automation testers — primarily from India — through staff augmentation, or recruits QA talent for your local Athens 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:
Athens is Greece's economic capital and its largest technology market, home to most of the country's venture-funded startups, a fast-maturing fintech scene, and engineering offices opened by multinationals including Pfizer's digital hub, Cisco and TeamViewer. The city's ecosystem has expanded rapidly as investment returned and diaspora engineers came home, but competition for senior software, data and cloud talent remains intense across a still-recovering market.
Athens talent is strongest in web and backend engineering, Java, Python, JavaScript, mobile and increasingly cloud and data, fed by the National Technical University of Athens and other strong STEM faculties. Graduate output is high, but years of emigration to Western Europe thinned the senior tier, so experienced architects and specialists are competitive to secure and slower to hire locally.
Athens developer pay is well below Western-European levels while quality is high — senior software engineers often in the region of €35k–€60k gross, with premiums for cloud, data and fintech skills. To scale delivery affordably or add niche capacity fast, Athens teams frequently blend local hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced and employed through PNH.
For Athens founders and engineering leaders, an offshore pod is a fast route to added capacity: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlaps working hours with EET for daily collaboration, and handles employment and compliance through its Employer of Record, so an Athens team scales delivery without setting up new payroll or absorbing local senior-hire scarcity.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Athens 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.
