Job description

infrastructure teams, contributing application-level insights that help guide platform improvements and influence infrastructure strategy. The breadth of domains we support gives you exposure to a broad and varied problem space.We care deeply about engineering craft. We build reusable components and shared libraries that solve cross-domain problems, abstracting away complexity so that common patterns are handled well in one place rather than duplicated across pipelines. We look for recurring challenges and invest in building tools that improve reliability, reduce risk, and make our teams more productive. This mindset means we are always looking for opportunities to raise the bar on performance, code quality, and maintainability.We are actively exploring how agentic and generative AI can augment our data workflows to improve data coverage and quality. We are also contributing to Bloomberg’s semantic data initiatives, helping define how data flows into Bloomberg’s enterprise knowledge
