Every listing links straight to the employer, so you apply on their own board rather than through an intermediary."},{"title":"What these roles pay","text":"Most employers in this selection do not publish a figure, so the range below is Alion's own estimate, derived from 205 comparable listings priced by role, level and country. Across them the middle half of the market sits between $15K and $21K a year, with a median of $19K. By level, the median runs middle at $15K, senior at $19K, staff at $36K, and lead at $28K. The step from middle to lead is worth about 1.9x on median pay. Figures are gross annual amounts converted to US dollars, so roles in different currencies stay comparable."},{"title":"Where the work is","text":"The largest concentrations of these roles are India (7), Czech Republic (1), and Ireland (1). 14% offer a hybrid arrangement, while the rest expect you on site."},{"title":"Who is hiring","text":"The employers with the most open QA Engineer jobs in Chennai right now are Photon (30), HCLTech (16), UPS (13), Accenture (10), Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (9), and Cognizant (8). Each company page on Alion carries its size, funding stage, tech stack and every other position it has open, so you can judge the employer before you spend an evening on the application."},{"title":"What employers ask for","text":"Reading across the current listings, the tools that come up most often are Agile (118), Selenium (115), CI/CD (115), Python (100), SQL (85), Scrum (67), Java (63), and Playwright (57). The counts are how many of these openings name each one, which is a better guide to what is actually being hired for than a generic skills list."},{"title":"Relocation, visas and equity","text":"Of the current QA Engineer jobs in Chennai, 1 offers a relocation package and 1 includes equity. These are filters on the list above, so you can narrow it to the ones that make a move possible for you."}],"faq":[{"question":"How many QA Engineer jobs in Chennai are open right now?","answer":"There are 254 open QA Engineer jobs in Chennai on Alion from 115 companies. The list was last refreshed on October 24, 2026."},{"question":"Are all of these QA Engineer jobs in Chennai still being filled?","answer":"Probably not all of them. 32 of the 254 show the marks Alion reads as a likely inactive posting: open far longer than employers usually take to fill such a role, reposted several times, or sitting on a board that rarely closes anything. They stay listed with a warning, and the list can hide them with one switch."},{"question":"What do QA Engineer jobs in Chennai pay?","answer":"The median is $19K a year, and the middle half of the market falls between $15K and $21K. Few of these employers publish a figure, so this is Alion's estimate based on 205 comparable listings."},{"question":"Are any of these roles remote?","answer":"11 of the 254 listings (4%) are fully remote, and you can filter the list down to them in one click."},{"question":"Which companies are hiring?","answer":"The most active employers right now are Photon, HCLTech, UPS, Accenture, Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, and Cognizant. Each has its own page on Alion with the rest of its open roles."},{"question":"Can I get visa sponsorship or relocation?","answer":"Yes - of the current listings, 1 offer a relocation package. Both are filters on the jobs page."},{"question":"How do I apply?","answer":"Open any listing and apply on the employer's own board through the link on the page. No account is required to browse or to apply."}]},"jobs":[{"id":3213999,"url":"https://alion.io/job/virtusa-corporation-playwrite-testing","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/virtusa-corporation-playwrite-testing.json","title":"Playwrite
