Job Description
### Senior QA Engineer (TradeZella product)
We're looking for a **QA Engineer** who cares about product quality end-to-end, someone who gets trading through real experience, professional or personal. Trading doesn't need to be your career; a hobby or a past chapter counts, but long-term investing alone doesn't.
You'll join [TradeZella](https://www.tradezella.com/) , our trading journaling and educational platform, and focus on how the product works in real conditions: testing functionality, investigating edge cases, and resolving complex issues together with engineering, product, and support teams. This role requires a genuine interest in the trading domain, along with strong UX testing skills.
### **What are we looking for?**
**Testing & QA expertise:**
* Strong experience with manual testing and end-to-end validation
* Solid UX testing skills beyond formal requirements (user acceptance testing, business acceptance testing, usability validation)
* **Hands-on day trading experience** (any market: stocks, forex, futures, crypto), past or present, professional or personal, with the ability to walk us through at least one strategy you've traded
* Experience in investigating customer issues and performing root cause analysis
* Experience in building and improving QA processes
**Technical skills:**
* Strong debugging and problem-solving skills, including log analysis (CloudWatch, Logs Explorer)
* Good understanding of networks, HTTP, APIs, and web/client architectures
* Experience with version control systems (GitHub, GitLab, etc.)
* Experience using AI tools for workflow optimization
**Communication & mindset:**
* Ability to translate technical concepts for different audiences (engineering ↔ non-technical)
* Strong sense of ownership and accountability
* Structured, detail-oriented approach
* Fluent English (written and spoken)
**Would be a plus:**
* Experience with Playwright (TypeScript)
### **Your responsibilities**
* Analyze requirements, test functionality, and identify defects, confusions, and edge cases
* Own investigation of complex customer issues through L3 support, driving root cause resolution
* Partner with engineering and product to resolve issues and improve system reliability
* Improve QA practices and elevate debugging and investigation standards, including AI adoption practices
* Support releases and ensure stable rollouts with active post-release follow-up
* Support and extend existing AI agents and skills to make the QA process more efficient
