AHMEDABAD, JAN 7
California headquartered QMetry, a leading software quality products company offering AI enabled digital quality platform to enterprises, plans to double its employee strength in Ahmedabad as its growth strategy to leverage talent for fuelling its innovation and R&D. Ahmedabad is the only R&D center globally for QMetry, said a senior official of the company here on Thursday.
“Current decade will see many companies from India leading SaaS product categories. QMetry is confident to lead AI enabled software quality space and sees huge opportunity to tap key talent in Ahmedabad to enable that. Ahmedabad team will work on to evolving software quality SaaS products that are currently adopted by 26 F500 companies. The recruitments will be done within six to 12 months.” said Makarand Teje (Mak), CEO of QMetry.
Speaking with navjeevanexpress.com, Mak, who is based out of the US along with QMetry’s leadership team and is on his first visit to Ahmedabad since taking over as CEO in November 2020, said, “Digital transformation has been on the rise for many years with customer facing and backend business functions becoming digital. Pandemic has accelerated this manifold as more and more functions have gone online to enable business continuity and growth. QMetry is fortunate to be in the epicenter of helping large enterprises deliver better quality software.” Mak said.
Outlining QMetry’s recruitment strategy to scale up its present R&D team strength from the present 100 to 200, Mak said, “Artificial intelligence (AI) has moved from being a niche topic to a dominant technology. With rapid advancements, AI has been creating massive business opportunities and breakthroughs, prompting leaders to invest more in it. With an increased demand for AI capabilities, the demand for skilled individuals working in this field has also skyrocketed. If someone wants to dive into the field of AI and data science, this would be the best time to do so. A career in AI is rewarding and exciting, and the field is full of opportunities.”
To a query on the qualifications and salary structure, Mak said, “We do recruit science graduates too provided they meet with our technical needs like these three dimensions – mindset, skillset, and toolset. Salary is no constraint and we offer Rs 10 lakh and above per annum which is the best in the industry. We prefer people having minimum 2 to 5 years of experience in their respective domains,” Mak added.
When asked about the reason for setting up of its global R&D and Innovation Centre in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, Mak replied that “Our mission is to create cutting-edge technology jobs in Gujarat to build a global product platform to help enterprises build better quality software at speed. Over 90 percent of our staffers are from Gujarat and they offer 24×7 service to our global clients despite the onslaught of the pandemic. In keeping with the situation, most of our staffers continue to work from home.”
