Description

TradingView is the world’s largest financial analysis platform with more than 100M users across 180+ countries. We build tools that help traders and investors make informed decisions — from advanced charting and market data to collaboration and publishing features. Our products are used daily by millions of individuals and trusted by companies like Revolut, Binance, and CME Group. We’re continuing to grow and scale our platform, and we’re looking for people who care about product quality, take ownership of their work, and want to build systems used by a global audience. About the team We’re looking for a Senior QA Engineer to join the UDF team and take ownership of quality across core backend services. The project consists of high-load, business-critical systems that act as the backbone for data transfers across the company. Failures here are expensive, visible, and unacceptable — quality is a first-class concern. Responsibilities Own end-to-end quality of backend services across the full lifecycle: design, implementation, release, and post-release. Design and evolve test strategies for complex, distributed backend systems. Plan, implement, and maintain load/stress testing to validate performance limits and degradation behavior. Independently investigate production-like issues: Reproduce failures. Analyze logs, metrics, and test results. Form and validate root-cause hypotheses. Define and continuously improve test coverage at API, protocol, and system levels. Actively influence system design by identifying testability, observability, and reliability gaps early. Work closely with developers as a technical peer, not a gatekeeper. What makes you the perfect fit 5+ years of hands-on experience testing backend and/or distributed systems. Strong practical understanding of testing methodologies, risk-based testing, and quality ownership. Deep understanding of computer systems fundamentals (process lifecycle, memory, networking, I/O). Solid knowledge of client-server architecture, HTTP protocol, WebSockets, and REST APIs. Extensive experience with API testing (manual and automated). Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash, or equivalent) for automation, tooling, and diagnostics. Confident daily use of Unix/Linux environments and CLI tools. Advanced analytical skills: Ability to decompose complex systems into testable layers. Ability to reason about failure modes, race conditions, and edge cases. Ability to turn ambiguous symptoms into concrete, verifiable findings. High learning velocity: Rapidly onboard to unfamiliar services, protocols, and architectures with minimal guidance. Independently study technical documentation and source code to derive meaningful test scenarios. Quickly reach productive depth when systems or requirements change. English — Intermediate+ (technical documentation, written communication). Will be a plus Strong experience with performance, load, and stress testing in production-like environments. Proven expertise in test automation architecture and long-term test maintainability. Experience in FinTech or other high-reliability domains. Familiarity with test management and reporting systems (Allure TestOps, TestRail). Solid understanding of distributed systems trade-offs (latency, consistency, fault tolerance). Experience in finance or trading domain. Familiarity with TradingView as a product.
