Salary: (commensurate with experience, with flexibility for exceptional candidates)
We are supporting an award-winning FX trading technology provider building a high-performance, institutional-grade electronic trading platform used by global banks, brokers, and investment firms to process significant daily FX flow.
This is not a conventional QA role,you will be working on a real-time, front-office trading system where correctness, latency sensitivity, and system integrity directly impact live financial markets.
We are looking for top-tier QA engineers who understand that testing trading systems is about far more than validation it is about understanding market behaviour, system interactions, and risk at a technical level.
The Environment
- New features are released frequently into production
- System components interact across a complex front-to-back trading workflow
- Performance, precision, and reliability are non-negotiable
- QA is embedded in the engineering process not a downstream gate
What You’ll Be Doing
- Designing and executing test strategies for a low-latency FX trading platform
- Building deep functional understanding of end-to-end trading workflows
- Identifying edge cases across order lifecycle, execution, and market data behaviour
- Validating system behaviour across distributed, real-time components
- Working closely with engineers to diagnose and reproduce production issues
- Thinking like a trader, engineer, and risk analyst when designing test coverage
- Helping evolve QA practices in a rapidly scaling, engineering-led organisation
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years in Software Quality Assurance (ideally in complex systems)
- Strong experience designing and executing structured test strategies
- Deep attention to detail with strong analytical thinking
- Ability to understand complex distributed systems and workflows
- Strong communication skills with engineers and stakeholders
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, evolving engineering environments
- Degree in a technical discipline or equivalent experience
Highly Valued Experience
- Exposure to electronic trading systems or capital markets environments
- Experience with FX, equities, or derivatives trading systems
- Understanding of order lifecycle, execution venues, or market data flows
- Experience in high-performance, low-latency or real-time systems
- Prior involvement in scaling QA within a growing engineering organisation
- Experience working alongside quant, trading, or core platform engineering teams
What Makes This Role Stand Out
- Work on mission-critical FX infrastructure used globally at institutional scale
- True ownership of quality in a high-performance trading environment
- Engineering culture focused on precision, speed, and technical excellence
- Remote-first (US-based) with high autonomy
- Direct impact on live trading systems where your work matters in real time
- Opportunity to grow within a best-in-class fintech engineering team
