No matter how intelligent systems become, they can't do much if they can't communicate. Come help build the gateway they'll depend on - now, and whatever future they compute. The Connectivity Gateway team is building a high-performance, multi-protocol proxy platform that powers Bloomberg's digital edge - handling client connectivity, service-to-service traffic, orchestration workflows, and evolving infrastructure demands. At the center of the platform is Envoy: a modern, extensible open-source proxy core that we're evolving for Bloomberg-scale performance, observability, resiliency, and operational safety. As the platform grows, we're also working on new coordination and communication patterns to support increasingly intelligent, adaptive, and event-aware workloads - while maintaining the reliability, security, and low latency our clients expect. This is an opportunity to help define the future of connectivity at Bloomberg - not just what the platform does, but what it enables. What's in it for you: * Design advanced proxy capabilities including protocol negotiation, traffic shaping, service discovery, routing strategies, and observability enhancements * Scaling Archon, our unified Envoy-based proxy platform, across a broad range of business-critical systems and traffic flows * Help evolve the platform to support emerging integration and orchestration patterns, including adaptive and autonomous workload coordination * Work deeply on performance engineering, low-latency systems, telemetry, and operational resiliency * Collaborate closely with infrastructure and security engineering teams to improve reliability, safety, and visibility across the platform, * Build high-quality software and services for the proxy platform and supporting infrastructure, with a focus on scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency * Take strong ownership of projects from design through production rollout * Partner with engineering and business stakeholders to drive initiatives to successful outcomes * Investigate and solve complex infrastructure, networking, and systems-management challenges * Mentor and support less-experienced engineers on the team
