Our team 

Bloomberg is expanding its footprint in the global financial market space through the creation of electronic fixed income trading venues. Electronic trading venues are heavily regulated by local authority so Bloomberg is making every effort to conform to their mandates.
The newly formed Market Oversight team plays a vital role verifying that those obligations are met. We are located in Frankfurt and working closely with internal clients such as Operational Risk and Compliance.

What’s in it for you?

Our main goal is to acquire and reconcile large amounts of trading data and provide tools to visualise and alert potential problems. You will be involved in building and maintaining full stack applications developed in C++ and Python, supported by front-end user interfaces in Javascript/Typescript. Our tools are a vital part of our regulatory obligations, so we pay close attention to testing and automation using tools like Jenkins and Pytest. Efficiency is critical for our team so you will be encouraged to look into the adoption of new technologies, should they help simplify and improve our workflows.

• We’re incredibly proud of our culture and collaboration sits at the centre of how we operate, you’ll have the opportunity to collaborate across teams and locations on a global scale, both virtually and in person.
