Bloomberg Terminal
IT Infrastructure
Job Details
The Bloomberg Terminal provides access to over 10,000 unique applications that help to drive the global financial markets, and hundreds of thousands of professionals around the world depend on it for their mission critical workflows. From a technology point of view, the Terminal can be viewed as a powerful desktop ecosystem that enables discoverability and integrated workflows for our vast portfolio of financial applications, and Application Frameworks is the group responsible for the Terminal's application infrastructure.
Our group develops the application runtime environments on both the client side and the server side, including the core Bloomberg desktop software and the application containers running in our data centers. We provide the Terminal SDK and libraries for our engineers to create high-value financial applications, along with the tools for developing, debugging, profiling and troubleshooting Terminal applications. We also build and run real-time deployment, distribution, and monitoring infrastructure for the Terminal ecosystem. Our current ownership and focus areas include the following:
While maintaining a vast array of technologies that are critical to Bloomberg's core products, we are also extending our engagement and influence beyond - as evidenced by our active participation and notable contributions to multiple industry standards, projects and communities. We have successfully championed multiple accepted and proposed standards advancements, such as CSS Grid Layout, JavaScript BigInt, Private Class Fields, and Temporal, to name a few!
Across our group, we are looking for motivated team members who will:
