Senior Software Engineer - DataHub Stream Functions

The DataHub Engineering team is building a distributed platform to host, catalog, discover, and deliver financial datasets across Bloomberg. This platform powers batch analytics, real-time stream processing, and low-latency, high-availability data distribution—ensuring that high-quality data, the lifeblood of financial markets, is always accessible.

As part of this mission, the DataHub Stream Functions team provides the managed, serverless infrastructure for scalable stream processing, enabling engineers across the company to focus on logic, not infrastructure.
