QualiZeal Drives Hyderabad’s GCC and AI Expansion with 850+ Workforce
QualiZeal, a global leader in AI-powered Quality Engineering (QE), has established Hyderabad as the nerve centre of its global delivery operations, with three Global Capability Centres, a workforce of 850+ engineers, and a 71percent CAGR since 2021.
The company’s deepening commitment to the city comes at a defining moment. Hyderabad today hosts 400+ GCCs, employing more than 300,000 professionals, along with a technology workforce of nearly one million IT and ITeS professionals and an innovation ecosystem attracting the world’s largest enterprises across BFSI, healthcare, travel, and technology.
As that ecosystem scales, the demand for world-class Quality Engineering is scaling with it, and QualiZeal is at the center of that demand.
The context is backed by research. A whitepaper co-published by QualiZeal and Everest Group titled "Reimagining Enterprise Quality: Leveraging AI-Infused QE Platforms for Competitive Advantage" identifies a widening gap between rising quality complexity and enterprise readiness, particularly as generative and agentic AI systems introduce risks including model drift, non-deterministic outputs, and explainability failures.
With 58percent of GCCs already investing in Agentic AI, and India's GCC sector on track to generate $ 105 billion by 2030 against $ 64.6 billion in 2024, Hyderabad's enterprises need a QE partner that can match that pace.
Frost and Sullivan, which awarded QualiZeal the 2025 India Technology Innovation Leadership Recognition in the GenAI Quality Engineering Platform category, has noted that the company's platforms represent a next-generation approach to software testing that is data-driven, intelligent, and deeply aligned with customer success, a characterisation that speaks directly to the needs of the GCC ecosystem taking root in Hyderabad.

Pradeep Govindasamy, Co-Founder, President and CEO, QualiZeal says, "Hyderabad has always punched above its weight in technology, but what is happening here today is different. The convergence of world-class talent, a rapidly expanding GCC ecosystem, and an accelerating shift to AI-driven software delivery has created a demand for Quality Engineering that is unlike anything we have seen before. We’ve invested deeply in Hyderabad through our India Capability Centres, platforms, and talent pipeline because we believed the city would emerge as a defining hub for Quality Engineering. As GCCs deepen their AI mandates and enterprises raise the bar on reliability and trust, QualiZeal is fully invested in ensuring that Hyderabad has the QE infrastructure to compete and lead on the global stage."
