Senior Software Engineer - Rapid JavaScript Infrastructure & Tools
Location
New York
Business Area
Engineering and CTO
Ref #
10044835
Description & Requirements
About the Department:
Bloomberg's Application Frameworks group is the primary infrastructure group behind the Bloomberg Terminal platform. We consider it our dual mandate to provide robust, open and productive technology stacks for our Terminal application developers, and to deliver a stable, responsive and modern end-user experience to our customers. The group is also responsible for our developer infrastructure and flagship products like the Shell and Launchpad and their widely known features such as workspace persistence, tabs, spatial navigation, cascading applications, hotspots and grouping.
Our Team:
The Rapid JIT team is focused on delivering a high quality, modern JavaScript development experience for Rapid, the primary framework for building applications for the Bloomberg terminal. We are responsible for the end-to-end development experience, from developer tools like a CLI and VS Code extension, to CI/CD and eventually publishing code for release to customers. These tools are used by over 3,000 developers daily, and we frequently work with these developers to influence our roadmap. For example, one recent project we're working on is to modernize the markup language used for designing UIs in Rapid, which in the future will see us aligning with industry standards for declarative UI.
We're responsible for ensuring that the over 40 million lines of published Rapid code continues to function as the framework and our tools evolve. This presents a unique challenge, as it requires us to be thorough in verifying changes using static analysis and testing.
We work closely with our sister teams to ensure the development experience is reflective of the runtime environment, and that we can provide a consistent experience for users familiar with Bloomberg's client-side application framework. In the long term, we will continue to collaborate with these teams to unify the developer experience to offer a new, unified application framework offering expanded capabilities on the client and server.
We primarily ship developer tools written in TypeScript, running on Node on a variety of development platforms.
The Role:
We want engineers that are collaborative, open to experimenting and are passionate about developer experience.
What will make you successful in this role? Being a strong communicator and problem solver with an attention to detail.
You'll need to have:
We'd love to see:
We'll trust you to:
