The group has about a thousand team members spread across all of Bloomberg's global offices focused on Application and Middleware Frameworks, Database Solutions, Connectivity, Security, Cloud Native Compute and Storage Services. Our mission is to provide Bloomberg developers with a standard, scalable, managed and compliant platform experience.\nAbout the Teams\nDataLayer Platform\nDataLayer is the high-performance library used to build reactive transformations of data in the Bloomberg Terminal. From simple sorting and filtering, to complex multi-level aggregations and the Excel-like expression evaluation engine, Datalayer is the engine that powers almost every grid or table of data in the Bloomberg Terminal.\nThe newly created DataLayer Platform team in Pune will take ownership of embedding the DataLayer into Bloomberg runtimes, providing seamless integration with the Bloomberg Terminal and backend services. This will require the team to work closely with other DataLayer teams as well as multiple infrastructure teams to ensure that DataLayer works as efficiently and performant as possible in those runtimes.\nWe’ll trust you to:\nHave an eye for detail and an interest in working on the complex challenges of large-scale distributed systems.\nBring a strong understanding of working with highly multi-threaded and asynchronous programming environments\nUnderstand how to make changes to a live production system safely and responsibly, without causing any impact to our users\nCommunicate clearly and effectively and share our values toward software development and professional collaboration.\nYou'll need to have:\n5+ years of total software developer experience in C++\nA Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience\nStrong understanding of object-oriented design, data structures, multi-threading, and algorithms\nExperience with designing, developing and managing large-scale service-oriented systems\nExcellent communication and collaboration skills\nA self-starter approach with a strong sense of ownership\nWe'd love to see:\nExperience working on complex infrastructure systems under continuous use\nExperience in performance optimizations, passion to write performance-critical code\nExperience in Python or JavaScript/TypeScript\nExperience in multithreading\nExposure to multiple phases of the software development life-cycle\nWhat’s in it for you:\nThe platform services teams are associated with many of Bloomberg's collaborative efforts, with a lot of us involved in both internal and external technical communities, conferences and organizations. We also have relationships with many other infrastructure teams across Bloomberg and numerous open-source projects used at all levels of our software development and deployment stack.\nIf this sounds like you:\nApply if you think we're a good match.
