Why a pentester and not a QA team more broadly? QA won’t necessarily review the code (haven’t met a team that did), but they will typically hammer a system with test cases and scenarios that expose unusual behavior and uncover bugs.
I’ve had pentesters review code looking for things like insecure hashing or encryption, or low hanging fruit like cress in the code, but I wouldn’t be inclined to leave what is essentially a QA process to a pentester.
