To hire software testing (QA) engineers in Galway, Ireland, Pitch N Hire supplies vetted manual and automation testers — primarily from India — through staff augmentation, or recruits QA talent for your local Galway 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:
Galway is the technology heart of the west of Ireland and a globally significant medical-technology hub, home to one of the densest clusters of medical-device companies in Europe, spanning cardiovascular, diagnostics and connected-health engineering. Alongside medtech, the city has a growing enterprise-software and analytics scene, sustaining demand for embedded, software, data and quality-systems engineers who can work within tightly regulated environments.
Galway talent is distinctive for its medtech and regulated-engineering depth, strong in embedded systems, connected-device software, C/C++, data and validation, fed by a research-active university with recognised med-device and biomedical programmes. The pool is high-calibre but comparatively small and specialised, so senior and niche roles can be competitive and slow to fill — a frequent driver of offshore augmentation for general software work.
Galway developer pay sits below Dublin but is competitive for the region, with senior engineers often in the region of EUR 58k-82k and premiums for regulated med-device and embedded skills. To protect scarce local specialists for core device work while scaling broader software delivery, Galway firms frequently add offshore India-based engineers sourced through PNH.
PNH complements Galway's medtech-heavy employers by taking on general and application-software delivery offshore: vetted India-based engineers employed via an Employer of Record on Irish-hours overlap, freeing scarce local embedded and connected-device specialists to concentrate on core, regulated engineering work.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Galway 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.
