QA & Security

In the age of AI, security and quality assurance are more critical than ever. Prompt injection, data poisoning, and model inversion are new, complex threats, while the speed of development demands fully automated quality gates. We provide elite nearshore QA and Security engineers who understand these modern challenges. They move beyond manual testing to build comprehensive, automated frameworks for UI (Playwright), API, and security (SAST/DAST) testing. Our Axiom Cortex™ engine vets for a 'shift-left' mindset, ensuring quality and security are built into the development lifecycle, not bolted on at the end.

How We Measure Seniority in QA & Security

For the qa & security domain, our Axiom Cortex™ engine measures the cognitive traits required for success. This data-driven approach allows for transparent, value-based pricing for every seniority level.

Pricing estimates are calculated using the U.S. standard of 173 workable hours per month, which represents the realistic full-time workload after adjusting for federal holidays, paid time off (PTO), and sick leave.

How We Vet for Elite QA & Security Talent

Our Axiom Cortex™ engine identifies top-tier talent by simulating real-world challenges specific to qa & security. We select for engineers who have already solved your hardest problems.

The Pain: "Is your nearshore QA team just running manual tests and filing endless bug tickets?"

Traditional QA vendors sell manual testing services that don't scale. They act as a bottleneck, slowing down your releases without fundamentally improving code quality. They find bugs late in the cycle, making them expensive to fix.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Shift left on quality, don't just find bugs at the end. We provide QA Automation and Security Engineers who build quality in. Our Cognitive AI vets for expertise in building robust, automated test suites (UI, API, performance) and integrating security scanning (SAST/DAST) directly into the CI/CD pipeline. They prevent bugs, rather than just finding them.

Vetting Proof: 95% of new bugs caught in CI before reaching production.
The Pain: "Is your end-to-end test suite slow, flaky, and untrustworthy?"

Your automated E2E tests fail intermittently for no clear reason. The team no longer trusts the results and wastes hours re-running or debugging flaky tests, defeating the purpose of automation.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We provide automation experts who build reliable and resilient test suites. They are vetted on their ability to use modern frameworks like Playwright or Cypress to write tests with proper waits, retries, and clean state management, eliminating flakiness and restoring confidence in your test results.

Vetting Proof: A stable, reliable E2E test suite with a flakiness rate below 2%.
The Pain: "Is application security an afterthought in your development process?"

Your security team performs a penetration test once a year, finding critical vulnerabilities just before a major release. Security is seen as a blocker, not a partner, and developers are not equipped to write secure code.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our security engineers are experts in DevSecOps. They champion a 'shift-left' culture by integrating automated security testing (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning) into the CI/CD pipeline and providing developers with the tools and training to write secure code from the start.

Vetting Proof: A fully integrated DevSecOps pipeline that detects and fixes vulnerabilities early.
The Pain: "Are you prepared for the new security threats posed by Large Language Models (LLMs)?"

Your team is building features with LLMs but is unaware of new vulnerability classes like prompt injection, indirect prompt injection, and training data poisoning. This exposes your application and your data to entirely new attack vectors.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our security experts are at the forefront of AI security. They are vetted on their ability to identify and mitigate against the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, ensuring your AI-powered features are secure by design.

Vetting Proof: A robust security posture against modern AI-specific threats.
