Does it make sense to expose the business to large losses, when you can eliminate most mistakes in advance? This is exactly what QA engineers do in digital product development. 

Quality Assurance engineers are professionals who focus on improving software development processes and preventing defects.

Their job scope embraces a number of duties: analyzing and reviewing documentation, creating their own documentation, making addressability metrics to show the test coverage to the product owner, performing manual and automated testing, designing, developing, and maintaining automation scripts (like API and UI), checking the platform to find weaknesses and so on.
