At Bloomberg, our mission has always been to provide real-time data, news, and analytics to our clients quickly and accurately. Our clients are some of the biggest players in finance, and they rely on our software to manage their portfolios, analyze the markets, and make swift trading decisions that keep them ahead of the competition. We have more than 320,000 clients across the world, so it’s critical for our systems to be available, stable, and above all reliable. That’s where the Incident Management team comes in.

The Incident Management team manages the coordination and communication for all service-impacting outages. Our mission is to ensure all outages are resolved as quickly as possible and have minimal on all downstream users and workflows. To accomplish this, we structure and lead investigations in partnership with technical teams across the company – from developers to client support. We are the central point for all team members. As such, we ensure that accurate and timely information is communicated to all stakeholders during significant outages.

Post incident, we assist with Problem Management activities, helping to analyze and help pursue root cause analysis as well as identifying remediation actions to make sure our incidents do not recur.
