Do you love working on a ground floor opportunity to build BQL’s DevX product?

BQL DevX provides fully managed Platform As a Service solutions for:

  • End to end support of BQL’s SDLC processes
  • Building operational intelligence to deliver valuable insights for continuous refinement of the BQL product.

Bloomberg runs on data. It’s our business and our product. BQL is Bloomberg’s gateway to data and feature-rich custom analytics. 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. BQL provides a highly customizable domain specific query language to allow users to express complex analytics and quantitative models for execution on Bloomberg’s data platform.

The DevX team builds and maintains a CI & CD platform based on Jenkins to enable:

  • Developers to build, test and deliver features seamlessly
  • Product and Data providers to augment BQL’s content universe

We provide PYoneer, a fully automated regression test framework certifying the features going out every release. The framework understands BQL’s rich metamodel and generates automated tests to identify functional defects and raises relevant notifications for resolution.

We are also building BQL Insights, a data science platform to extract operational metrics from BQL’s production traffic to deliver visibility and insights. This feedback will significantly guide and enhance feature development as well as motivate prioritization of planned features.
