Senior Software Engineer - Data License Plus

Bloomberg's Enterprise Data offerings helps our clients get the right data at the right time to drive their operational and research workflows. We build the technological supply chains that source vast amounts of data, model it, link it and deliver it to our clients’ financial services systems while providing accessibility and control along the way. Data Science is driving the demand for more and more data and we’re building the platforms to onboard new datasets quicker, smarter and more transparently than before.

Our flagship product is Data License Plus (DL+), which is a fully managed service that hosts, aggregates, organizes and links all of your Data License data into a unified model designed for immediate use. DL+ can also publish your refreshed licensed content, in a ready-to-use format, directly into your cloud data platform (such as Snowflake, Databricks, AWS RedShift, Google GCP) as it becomes available while maintaining transparency, consistency, quality and control.
