What you’ll do:
You’ll contribute to one of the most widely used Bloomberg Terminal products, focusing on performance and stability while helping evolve the experience across Microsoft Office and other productivity applications.

  • Experience building software for high-performance, multi-threaded environments
  • A strong focus on code quality, demonstrated through testing, automation, and peer review
  • Clear communication and strong collaboration with Product and cross-functional stakeholders
  • A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, a related field, or equivalent professional experience
Nice to have:
  • Windows development experience; familiarity with ATL, COM, and Office automation is a plus
  • Strong debugging skills (e.g., analyzing memory dumps with Visual Studio/WinDbg) and experience troubleshooting complex performance issues
  • Experience with Excel integrations, custom functions, or Office extensibility frameworks
  • Familiarity with BQL, financial workflows, or real-time data concepts
  • Exposure to distributed systems, API design, or cloud-based architectures
