We need the most inspired engineers in Bloomberg to help us transform this platform into the next best OMS in the financial services industry.

AIM is one of the best places to solve some of the most complex problems in the trading world with exciting, new technologies.

  • Update existing projects to comply with best practices
  • Work productively on a healthy Scrum team
  • Proactively collaborate when questions or problems block progress
  • Provide ideas on how to better solve categories of problems across many projects

You need to have:

  • 5+ years of experience programming in C, C++, or another compiled language
  • Excellent problem solving skills
  • Knowledge of programming on Linux or Unix

We'd love to see:

  • Experience in large-scale project migrations
  • Experience working on open source projects
