The posting

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 are looking for an experienced Unit Lead to take on technical and organizational leadership across the unit. This is a true "leader of leaders" role focused on technical strategy, reliability, people development, and process maturity. While your direct reports will be Team Leads and Tech Leads, we expect you to remain technically grounded with a deep understanding of system design, distributed architectures, and codebase fundamentals.

Your mission will be to align the teams under a single strategic vision, drive cross-team synergies, balance product delivery with technical debt and reliability, and grow future engineering leaders in a high-ownership, high-scale environment.

Responsibilities

  • Own and execute the unit's technical strategy and roadmap, translating company business objectives into clear, measurable engineering goals and delivery milestones.
  • Unify multiple engineering teams around a shared runtime and platform architecture, maximizing synergies and eliminating inter-team dependencies.
  • Directly manage and mentor Team Leads; conduct regular 1:1s, support their managerial growth, and guide their progression through engineering grades.
  • Own resource management across the unit: run hiring, onboarding, capacity planning, and headcount budgeting; justify compensation adjustments and ensure teams are staffed to deliver on commitments.
  • Foster a culture of high ownership, accountability, transparency, and continuous learning across all teams within the unit.
  • Own platform reliability and technical health: define and enforce SLOs/SLAs, availability and latency targets, incident post-mortems, and a robust on-call culture.
  • Drive Disaster Recovery (DR) and Business Continuity Planning (BCP): define RTO/RPO targets, design dual-hub/failover scenarios, and oversee regular readiness checks.
  • Supervise capacity forecasting, scaling, and operations on Kubernetes and cloud platforms while optimizing the total cost of ownership (TCO).
  • Optimize engineering workflows, implementing modern delivery frameworks, release metrics, quality controls, and effective requirements management.
  • Represent the unit at the company and executive level; proactively work with stakeholders (product managers, adjacent engineering departments) to align on roadmaps, architectural trade-offs, and risks

What makes you the perfect fit

  • 5+ years of experience in engineering management (Unit Lead / Engineering Manager), ideally with experience managing Team Leads / Tech Leads and multiple teams simultaneously.
  • Strong background in backend development (Go or Java) and a proven track record of building and managing distributed systems at scale.
  • Deep experience with high-load, low-latency services in a production environment.
  • Solid understanding of SRE practices: SLO/SLA formulation, observability, incident management, and building an on-call culture.
  • Confident practical understanding of capacity planning, resource allocation, and operations within Kubernetes and cloud/container infrastructures.
  • Proven ability to define strategy, set OKRs, and build transparent processes for performance reviews and engineer growth (PDPs).
  • Excellent systems thinking, high comfort level in managing ambiguity, and strong prioritization skills.
  • Outstanding communication and stakeholder management skills to effectively bridge technical teams and business leadership.
  • Working-level Russian and English (for internal communication, meetings, and technical documentation).

Will be a plus

  • Experience in finance or trading domain
  • Familiarity with TradingView as a product
  • Hands-on experience with DR planning and capacity profiling.
  • Experience consolidating or reorganizing several teams into a single unit.
  • Familiarity with the technologies in the stack below.

What we offer you

  • Flexible working hours and a hybrid work format
  • Well-equipped offices for focused and collaborative work
  • A global, distributed team of 500+ professionals
  • Learning, mentorship, and long-term career growth
  • Relocation support and private health insurance
  • Performance-based bonuses
  • TradingView Premium access
  • Regular team events and company-wide meetups

Join the TradingView team and help us build a product used by millions of traders and investors worldwide. We look forward to hearing from you!

TradingView is an equal opportunity employer. We embrace diversity and are dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. Our success is driven by 600+ professionals from 40+ countries who speak nearly 20 languages.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
