Through our platform, we serve both internal clients who need to orchestrate complex financial workflows and large institutional clients who rely on us to manage their financial pipelines and synchronize their inbound and outbound processes. The Workflow Frameworks team builds a generic, high-performance, DAG-based orchestration engine that serves as foundational infrastructure for distributed and asynchronous enterprise workflows. Through our Python API, clients can define workflows that operate seamlessly across a wide range of execution environments. The Workflow Management team owns the enterprise Batch Processing Platform, which is a highly scalable and distributed workflow management solution. The team's vision is to offer external clients a powerful workflow orchestration tool that enables them to easily define, execute, monitor, and maintain their workflows. The Workflow Transparency team delivers systems that provide insight, transparency, and metrics for data flowing through enterprise platforms. The team ingests, processes, and exposes data from a broad set of internal systems, empowering users to understand their workflows and make informed decisions. We are seeking experienced software engineers to join one of these three teams. Successful candidates will develop internal and client-facing APIs for managing workflows end-to-end, tackle the complexities of large-scale distributed systems and asynchronous applications, and contribute to the design and evolution of a product that currently serves specific needs and is progressing toward a Bloomberg-wide platform offering. We will trust you to: * Work on a variety of cross-functional integration projects with teams from multiple engineering organizations * Develop internal and client-facing APIs for managing workflows end-to-end * Tackle the complexities of large-scale distributed systems, data pipelines, and asynchronous applications. * Contribute to the design and evolution of a product with specific use cases that is moving toward a unified Bloomberg-wide platform. * Lead a technical improvement area aligned with your interests, such as observability, APIs, testing frameworks, or tooling. ## Related Videos - [Building a Multi-Agent Orchestration Engine That Actually Follows the Rules](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100159-building-a-multi-agent-orchestration-engine-that-actually-follows-the-rules) - [Beyond Kafka & RabbitMQ: Why NATS is the Future of Microservices Messaging](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1646-beyond-kafka-rabbitmq-why-nats-is-the-future-of-microservices-messaging) - [Reducing LLM Calls with Vector Search Patterns - Raphael De Lio (Redis)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1714-reducing-llm-calls-with-vector-search-patterns-raphael-de-lio-redis) - [Developing ASP.NET Core Microservices with Dapr: A practical guide](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1528-developing-asp-net-core-microservices-with-dapr-a-practical-guide) - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) - [Why Systems Break After Initial Success: The Architectural Failures That Take Months to Surface](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2048-why-systems-break-after-initial-success-the-architectural-failures-that-take-months-to-surface) ## Related Articles - [Best Companies to work for in London: Top 25 Companies in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/187-best-companies-to-work-for-in-london-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [Software Engineer Salary London](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/252-software-engineer-salary-london) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers)
