Offshore QA/Testing Jobs

what to expect

A brilliant career option for experienced software QAs who are excited by the idea of career growth, better work-life balance, and the beach just steps away. Offshore jurisdictions are high-growth business environments, and with this growth comes the need for high-quality software to uphold the standard that offshore has become known for in the corporate space. Some of the organisations that tend to recruit for QA tend to be international leaders and offer incredible exposure, lining you up for enviable growth in a highly lucrative career.


Compared to elsewhere, teams tend to be a lot smaller; you may be the 1st QA specialist in a given team, as often developers would have been responsible for testing as well as development depending on the size of an organisation. In terms of the day-to-day, you may be responsible for rolling out automation within the team as well as figuring out which processes will be kept manual according to requirements. It is important to know that you likely won’t have as much autonomy and opportunity to make changes as you might experience in other jurisdictions.

Earning Potential

Higher, tax-free, or low-tax salaries in offshore jurisdictions make it an attractive prospect for those looking to improve their earning potential.

Career Potential

There is an incredible opportunity to gain strong fintech/legal industry experience working on impactful projects. You may also gain exposure to leadership capacity more quickly/more exposure to other areas when working offshore.

Work-Life Balance

Life offshore is often more balanced, with shorter commutes and more balanced work hours than onshore. This topped with an island lifestyle makes for paradise found.

What Experience is Needed?

Many of the roles in this space come up at a senior or lead/QA manager level, so having a robust background will be desirable. In many jurisdictions, often times companies will not have a test function or function that is working properly, which has left developers taking ownership of test also. As such, it is very useful to have experience setting up a test function within an organisation as you will sometimes be the 1st QA professional to join the team.


It is useful also to have both automation & manual experience as some organisations here are only very early in their automation journey. Strong soft skills are essential as you will be working alongside development teams and colleagues in various departments.
