Senior Software Engineer - Derivatives Team

Bloomberg is the global leader in financial data and analytics. Financial derivatives instruments across several asset classes (foreign exchange, fixed income, equity, index, commodity, credit, etc) trade millions of times a day both as listed products on exchanges and as bespoke over-the-counter products in a multi-trillion dollar market throughout the world. The Derivatives Engineering team brings transparency to the complex world of derivatives. We enable our clients to generate trade ideas, structure deals, connect to electronic trading platforms, capture market movements, and assess and hedge portfolio risk for derivatives instruments.

This team is right at the intersection of finance and technology. We work directly with product managers, financial engineers, and quantitative analysts to understand the client and market needs. We use cutting edge big data technologies, distributed computing, functional programming and machine learning to build software solutions that help us implement complex financial and quantitative models to facilitate derivatives pricing and analytics in real-time.

As a member of the Derivatives Engineering team, you will have the opportunity to work with a variety of open source technologies including Blockchain, Apache Spark, Apache Kafka, Apache Cassandra, Redis, and more, to design and implement full-stack software solutions that serve billions of calculations a day. You'll gain hands-on experience in writing data analytics, distributed algorithms, and performance optimized code, all while gaining an advanced knowledge of the derivatives domain. If the idea of building sophisticated software solutions for financial data and analytics excites you, we would love to hear from you!
