Trevo · Smart job discovery for the Israeli tech market

Qualitest was founded in 1997 by Ayal Zylberman and Eli Margolin. The company operates as a global software testing and quality assurance provider, with main headquarters in London and Petah Tikva, alongside delivery centers in the US, India, and Eastern Europe. Qualitest is a private company; in 2019, the private equity firm Bridgepoint acquired a majority stake from Marlin Equity Partners at an estimated valuation of $400 million. The company employs thousands of software testers and automation engineers globally.

Unlike software-as-a-service (SaaS) product companies, Qualitest operates as an IT services and consulting firm focused strictly on quality engineering. The core offering includes managed testing services, test automation framework development, performance testing, and cybersecurity testing. The company deploys teams of engineers to integrate directly with enterprise clients' R&D and DevOps pipelines, solving the problem of scaling QA operations without maintaining large in-house testing departments. Clients span domains such as telecommunications, healthcare, finance, and defense.

Qualitest positions itself as the world's largest independent, pure-play software testing company. It competes against global systems integrators with testing divisions, such as EPAM and Cognizant, as well as specialized crowd-testing platforms like Applause. The company has consistently expanded its footprint through acquisitions, purchasing smaller testing and consulting firms across the US, UK, and Israel to broaden its regional reach and domain expertise.

In Israel, Qualitest is a major employer in the QA sector, maintaining a large centralized presence in Petah Tikva. The company plays a specific role in the local tech ecosystem as an entry point for junior software testers and technical bootcamp graduates, alongside hiring senior automation developers and quality engineering architects. The Israeli branch handles contracts for local enterprise, financial, and government clients while functioning as a knowledge center for the global organization.
