Lead Engineer, Quality Assurance
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The posting includes some EEO statements, visa sponsorship, etc. Those should be removed.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Let's extract content:
Job Description paragraph: "Building trusted markets — powered by our people. BIDS Trading is an institutional network and broker/dealer that provides software to help asset managers trade large blocks of liquidity. BIDS Trading operates one of the world's largest equity block trading systems, with venues across the U.S., Europe, and Canada, and its flagship workstation, BIDS Trader, delivers block trading opportunities to hundreds of the world's largest asset managers. As Lead Engineer, Quality Assurance, you will own quality across the full BIDS platform: the BIDS Trader workstation, the core matching engine and the back-end services behind it, and the FIX connectivity that links us to clients and venues. You will work alongside developers, product managers and business stakeholders in New York and Calgary to raise test coverage, sharpen our automation and give the team confidence to release quickly. This is a hands-on individual contributor role on a team that is measured on the reliability of systems our clients trade through every day."
That's the "About the role" content.
Responsibilities list: bullet points after "Responsibilities". Let's list them:
- Validate FIX connectivity and client onboarding flows, testing order entry, execution reports and drop-copy behavior against client and venue specifications.
- Define the test approach for new features, working with development and product from requirements through to release.
- Execute and evolve functional, regression and end-to-end integration testing, including performance and resilience scenarios against the trading engine.
- Build test harnesses, test data and environment tooling that widen coverage and shorten feedback loops for the whole team.
- Integrate automated suites into CI pipelines and keep them fast and stable.
- Investigate defects through to root cause, with clear reproduction steps, and partner with developers on the fix and its verification.
- Contribute to release readiness reviews and verify behavior in production following deployments.
- Challenge yourself and the team on quality practices, and champion continuous improvement in how we test.
Minimum Qualifications list:
- Five to 10 years of experience in software quality assurance or test engineering, with a track record on complex, transactional or real-time systems.
- Demonstrated ability to design and maintain manual and automated test suites, not only to execute them.
- Experience owning test strategy and test plans across functional, regression and integration testing in an Agile delivery environment.
- Experience with source control and continuous integration tooling such as Git, TeamCity and Jira.
- Excellent analytical skills, close attention to detail, and the ability to communicate effectively and work collaboratively within a cross-functional team.
- Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science, software systems or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
Preferred Qualifications list:
- Hands-on experience with automation tooling — for example Selenium or Playwright for UI, JUnit or TestNG as a test framework, Cucumber for behavior-driven scenarios, and REST Assured or Postman for API testing.
- Exposure to Java, sufficient to read application code, write test code and debug failures alongside developers.
- Working knowledge of SQL for building test data and validating outcomes directly against the database.
- Comfort on the Linux command line, with some shell or Bash scripting to automate test setup, log analysis and routine tasks.
- Background in financial markets, particularly equities trading, execution or order management systems, or familiarity with the FIX protocol.
- Exposure to testing trading systems, matching engines or other latency-sensitive platforms.
- Familiarity with Docker containers and applications running in AWS.
Why Cboe? section includes benefits list:

Also "About Cboe Global Markets" paragraph: "At Cboe Global Markets, we inspire our people to solve complex challenges together, because what we do matters. We provide the financial infrastructure that powers the global economy, delivering trading, clearing and investment solutions to market participants around the world. We are champions of internal mobility and access to opportunity: we encourage our people to go for it, and we equip our managers to coach their teams to the next level."
We could include that as part of "About the role" or separate "About Cboe". But instructions: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples but we can choose appropriate headings. We have content for About the role (job description), Responsibilities, Minimum Qualifications (maybe Requirements), Preferred Qualifications (maybe Qualifications or Skills), Benefits, Pay (salary range). No schedule.
We should not create Skills heading unless we have skills list; we have qualifications. Could combine Minimum and Preferred under Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Qualifications (preferred). Or we could have Requirements and Qualifications separate. Let's do:
About the role
with paragraphs from job description and maybe About Cboe? Actually About Cboe is separate but could be part of About the role? Might be better to have About the role (job description) and then a separate About Cboe
but not in list of examples. However we can include it as part of About the role or maybe as a separate section "About Cboe". The instruction says use those headings as examples, not strict list. So we can add About Cboe if we want. But to keep to a few substantive sections, we could merge About Cboe into About the role or maybe have a separate section "About Cboe". I'd include it as part of About the role because it's descriptive of the company.
But we also have "Why Cboe?" which is benefits. So we will have Benefits section.
Pay: Salary range.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, visa sponsorship, etc. Remove those lines.
Now construct HTML.
We'll output:
