FIVE-STAGE EVALUATION

Every Candidate Is Vetted Before You Meet Them

Most staffing firms screen résumés. We test how QA engineers actually work, and every candidate goes through the same five stages, wherever they come from.

Resume Screening

Experience, stack fit, seniority, English level, and availability

General Test

English with a CEFR level, attention to detail, values and conduct, and work style

Home Assignment

A practical task built around the role's real work

Technical Interview

A live video interview with a specialist in your stack

HR Partner Interview

Work style, integrity, reliability, and readiness for remote work

Specialists, Not Generalists

Led by senior developers and QAs. We only staff the stacks we know deeply, so we know what "senior" means in each.

Pick part-time or full-time. We handle the contract, payments, vacation, sick days, and holidays — your developer is productive from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this QA outsourcing or staff augmentation?

Staff augmentation. Our QA engineers join your team, your sprints, and your tools. They aren't a separate vendor you hand builds to. If you want a fully managed testing service instead, tell us and we'll say honestly whether we're the right fit.

Do you staff manual testers or automation engineers?

Both, and plenty of people who do both. Most teams start with one automation engineer to build the suite, then add manual QA for exploratory work.

Which automation tools do your QA engineers use?

Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, and Postman most often, plus JMeter and k6 for performance testing. Name your stack and we match against it.

Can a QA engineer work alongside developers we hire through you?

Yes, and it's the most common setup. Many clients staff a developer and a QA engineer together so testing keeps pace with the work.

How fast can we get candidates?

Usually within 1–3 weeks of understanding your requirements. In 97% of our searches, we present pre-vetted candidates within that window.
