Our Organization

Real time market data and news is at the core of Bloomberg's business. Our feed handlers directly consume real time market data from over 300 exchanges and financial institutions around the world and translate it into normalized streams to the tune of nearly 700 billion ticks per day. The data Feeds provide is consumed by applications across the Bloomberg platform and ultimately used by clients making the decisions that drive financial markets.

Our mission is to deliver the most comprehensive, resilient, and timely market data and news solution to our financial customers. Our core values of building strong partnerships, product ownership, and quality engineering are what empowers us to exceed expectations.

We mainly work on backend, and specialize in C++ (and a bit of python). We run mainly on Linux, and we have a lot of interesting initiatives that we need to execute on.

Our Teams

Feeds AMER & News services consume real time market data and news from over 80 exchanges and hundreds of other sources including news agencies, central banks, and social media platforms, each publishing data using different protocols and specifications. The Market Data product is complex. The teams in Feeds AMER act as gateways for the critical market data and news that flows into Bloomberg. This includes market data from some of the most high profile and resource intensive exchanges (CME, Nasdaq, NYSE, OPRA) as well as a variety of feeds from Canada, Latin America and South America.

Our teams develop software which connects to various exchanges and news sources, normalizing hundreds of billions of messages, all in a stable, resilient and timely manner. We work closely with our external sources, business partners and downstream teams to deliver comprehensive solutions.
