About the position
The Trading & Portfolio Management team provides common solutions to applications in Bloomberg which need to manage transaction and position data. Today, this means supporting Bloomberg's buy- and sell-side trading systems as well as various analytics solutions. Our offerings include core transaction data platforms, end-of-day event orchestration, live position and P&L calculations, and portfolio management and analytics. We are now on a mission to provide a single scalable cross-asset trading platform, delivering greater transparency into trading events and enhanced analytical capability to positions, P&L, and transactions. This requires a variety of new buildouts, as we are seeking to build new consolidated solutions for the businesses we support, as well as for our clients more directly. Our tech stack varies, but we have heavy concentrations on C++, Java, and Python, and we leverage a mixture of open-source and in-house frameworks and technologies to build our domain platform. As a team, we are a group of collaborative and driven engineers with a wide range of experiences. We prioritize building for the future of our product and working collaboratively on exciting projects, while also making sure to celebrate wins and personal successes. We aim to create balanced teams with an emphasis on mentorship and learning, ultimately seeking to empower each other to grow and build great things with the right balance of independence and mutual support.
