To hire software testing (QA) engineers in Dublin, Ireland, Pitch N Hire supplies vetted manual and automation testers — primarily from India — through staff augmentation, or recruits QA talent for your local Dublin 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:
Dublin is the anchor of Ireland's technology economy and the chosen EMEA headquarters for a striking concentration of global software, social, cloud and payments companies, clustered heavily around the Silicon Docks district by the Grand Canal. That density of large employers absorbs much of the local engineering supply, so demand for backend, cloud, data and platform talent consistently exceeds availability and compensation runs high across the city.
Dublin talent is highly international and product-mature, shaped by years inside large multinational engineering orgs, with deep pools in cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), backend Java and Python, data engineering, and site reliability. Because the biggest names compete for the same senior people, hiring is expensive and slow-moving locally, which is a common reason Dublin teams blend in offshore engineers for added capacity.
Dublin commands Ireland's highest developer pay, with senior software engineers frequently in the region of EUR 70k-100k plus employer costs, driven upward by multinational competition and high living costs. Offshore augmentation from India typically delivers comparable seniority at a materially lower blended rate, which is why cost-conscious Dublin scale-ups run hybrid on-site plus offshore teams.
For Dublin founders and engineering leaders, the fastest route to added capacity is often an offshore pod: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlaps several working hours with Irish time for daily collaboration, and handles employment and compliance through its Employer of Record, so there is no Irish entity to set up and no competition with the multinationals for scarce local hires.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Dublin 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.
