CIS TradeDesk Analyst

There's a Business Analyst that needs to build a real-time feed that sends online trade messages to his proprietary application. You guide him through the Bloomberg interface to set up an online trade feed and explain how she can use the different parameters to meet her requirements.

There's an Application Engineer that is looking to automate cash tickets from a third-party system to their Bloomberg Buy-side AIM solution. You show him how to leverage the cash upload tool and provide the specifications. You provide consultative help with a sample file, guide the client through the initial uploads and show how to see the end result.

There's a FIX engineer that is looking to build a FIX engine to send CMF messages to their Bloomberg TOMS Sell-Side solution. You provide the engineer with the FIX specifications and guide through sample fix messages. You explain how the connectivity is built on our side and work with our other Bloomberg connectivity teams to complete the FIX on-boarding process.
