You have to ask yourself: Are you sure you want to do QA? Some people go into QA without really knowing what QA is. QA is really a support role and won't get you very far in your career. Most people in QA do have a heavy engineering background and have an extensive programming knowledge. However, most people who go into QA do it without realizing it's not a frontline role. Try to look for a role that are customer-facing while offering opportunities to test and find bugs. Customer-facing roles are frontline roles in any company. If you would really like QA without the customer-facing aspect, the only industry where QA is a frontline role is really in healthcare. Medical devices have to go through extensive governmental regulations and this is where QA would actually be considered a frontline role.
