Bloomberg runs on data. It's our business and our product. From the biggest banks to the most elite hedge funds, financial institutions need timely, accurate data to capture opportunities and evaluate risk in fast-moving markets. Enabling clients to access Bloomberg’s data and perform custom analytics, the Bloomberg Query Language (BQL) and Analytics platform is at the forefront of innovation for our business.

The BQL Expressions team within the platform is building out a High level Domain Specific Language, its parsing layer and a scalable validation engine leveraging Metadata and config based rules. We are responsible for defining the language grammar, parsing requests to semantic graphs, applying complex validation and routing algorithms on large graphs(tens of millions of nodes) to prepare an optimized execution plan.
   
These are the exciting components you’ll work on and build:

• Define and Enrich the Bloomberg Query Language, its grammar and creation of semantic graphs for a multitude of cases
• Enhance and manage dynamic loading and caching of Metadata and config in the Graph Engine
• Provide a generic Access Control framework for BQL Metadata entities via its own DSL and rule based framework embedded within the main engine
• Provide Smart Query classification routines and leverage these classifications for creating an optimal data retrieval and analytic execution plan
• Integrate with Bloomberg Infrastructure components such as Entity resolution and symbology Offerings for Asset Class identification and automagic navigation
• Build a Graph Optimization and Interchange layer for optimal transmission of memory optimized graphs to execution engines
