Senior Software Engineer - Public Cloud Managed Compute

Our Team:
The Public Cloud Engineering organization provides a suite of services to facilitate Bloomberg's usage of public cloud. From security, to observability, to networking, to access management, to compute, our organization provides the foundational building blocks on which Bloomberg's solutions on public cloud are built. Within this organization, our team provides the public cloud compute platform on which solutions are built.

Compute is the foundational building block of modern day technology, and Bloomberg's Public Cloud Managed Compute team builds solutions that abstract commonalities, default configurations, required functionality and integrations so that we can seamlessly build solutions in the public cloud. We provide tools for SRE and application teams to deploy, operationalize, and secure their compute environment across the various public cloud service providers that we interact with. Our team prides itself on being the center of excellence for compute in public cloud. From virtual machines to kubernetes, our team builds on top of the public cloud offerings and tailors it to Bloomberg's needs, in order to seamlessly and efficiently utilize compute on the public cloud.

Key products and areas that our team works on are:

• Provide secure by default golden images, for building and deploying immutable virtual machine workloads
• Provide secure by default kubernetes clusters, for deploying containerized workloads
• Utilities to deploy and manage virtual machines and kubernetes clusters on public cloud
• Integrations with other aspects of public cloud lifecycle, such as observability, security, and access management

What's in it for you:
You will be part of a team that is building the foundation to support a multi-cloud environment for public cloud technologies and solutions! Be a part of building our cloud compute platform which is following industry leading standards in both security and functionality. You will have the opportunity to both provide technical solutions, as well as leading projects in all aspects from engaging with partners, building the solution, to spearheading adoption and creating an impact from end to end. You will have the opportunity to work and learn in an environment with peers that are experts in their domain, with the opportunity to contribute and evolve a continuously growing platform both in terms of functionality and adoption within Bloomberg.

We'll trust you to:

• Build and provide development teams with self-serve tools to provision compute infrastructure, deploy/manage applications, and run their operational environments
• Design scalable solutions across multiple cloud providers using various cloud specific constructs as well as industry leading practices and technologies in the compute space
• Engage and partner with our various security, SRE and application developer counterparts by understanding their business areas to help spearhead the adoption of our tooling and platform
• Implement industry-wide standard processes around public cloud infrastructure
• Use Infrastructure as code (IaC) tools and technologies such as Terraform to provision and manage infrastructure in a repeatable and automated manner

You need to have:

• 4 years or the equivalent of experience in programming in an object oriented language (Go, Python) and scripting using python and shell scripting (such as bash)
• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering or similar field of study or equivalent work experience
• A solid understanding of object-oriented design, data structures, and algorithms
• Strong Linux/Unix fundamentals.
• Experience working with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure Cloud, and/or Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform)
• Proficiency and experience in provisioning and building infrastructure as code using Terraform
• Excellent communication skills to interact well both within and outside the team
• The ability to find opportunities for automation as well as developing and testing the solution
• Self driven, with a strong sense of ownership and drive to rise to challenges

We'd love to see:

• Experience in building and managing CI/CD pipelines (Jenkis, Git) for provisioning infrastructure, building and deploying artifacts
• Experience with Hashicorp Packer, Docker, and other utilities for building and deploying immutable machine images
• Experience with modern technology ecosystem for kubernetes, such as Bottlerocket, Karpenter, and Kyverno
• SRE experience (machine ownership, metrics and monitoring, performance testing, etc.)
• AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform certifications
• A background/previous experience in system administration (configuration, security, networking, etc.)
