Bloomberg, New York, New York, us, 10261
The Network Automation Platform team, part of Technology Infrastructure, is responsible for providing applications, frameworks and tooling that enable network engineering and operational teams to effectively manage one of the largest private networks through modern automation. We work with innovative network automation and configuration management technologies to treat infrastructure as code for connecting and supporting Bloomberg Professional and related services.
What's in it for you:
This is a unique opportunity to help build robust, highly scalable solutions that will power the future of how Bloomberg automates network infrastructure. You'll be trusted to define standards and design frameworks, libraries and tooling that build on automation best practices and principles. You'll work closely with outstanding infrastructure engineers to meet the field's most meaningful problems. We'll trust you to:
Actively contribute in defining both tools and architectural designs used by the team
Encourage, mentor and train junior team members.
Practice and promote the use of a modern software development lifecycle
Engage with customers to capture and refine requirements
Autonomously develop technical solutions to achieve objectives and required service levels, performance, and economics
Proactively research and follow industry trends and open source projects in network automation
You'll need to have:
4+ years working with an object-oriented programming language (go, Python, Ruby or equivalent)
A Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience
Extensive knowledge in software testing and delivery
The ability to take ownership and responsibility of issues and handle them effectively to resolution
We'd love to see:
Contributions to Open Source projects especially related to network automation, inventory and configuration management.
Knowledge in major Python frameworks like Django, FastAPI and Celery
Knowledge of layer 2, 3 and 4 networking concepts
Knowledge with messaging queues such as kafka, rabbitmq, etc
Experience with OpenConfig
Experience using Ansible or equivalent in large scale networking environments
A keen interest in keeping abreast of technological advances and proven success at incorporating new technology into existing systems
Knowledge of Linux programming, networking and system administration
We believe interviewing is a two way street. It's a way for us to get to know you and your skills, and also a way for you to learn more about the team, our technical challenges, and what you'd be working on. The content of each interview round will be tailored to the role and your background, but the general framework can be found here: https://www.bloomberg.com/careers/technology/engineering/software-engineering-experienced-hire
