London, UK
Posted on Jan 9, 2026
Our core product, The Bloomberg Terminal, is used by financial professionals around the world. It's continuously being developed and improved by a large number of engineers that are experts in their field. Our team is part of a group of engineers who create the product infrastructure for application teams at Bloomberg.
The Bloomberg Terminal is a modern JavaScript based application. Implemented using a combination of open-source software such as Chromium, V8 and Node.js as well as our own software implemented primarily in TypeScript and C++.
As we evolve the technology behind the Bloomberg Terminal we face the challenge of how to automate the user interface to imitate human users. We are the engineering team responsible for choosing the right technologies, developing solutions and tooling for end-to-end testing of the Bloomberg Terminal. We do so to help our Engineering and QA partners assure the quality of our software, adequately test for errors and regressions as well as permit error reproduction.
We're looking for an engineer with a passion for creating the tools to make engineering life easier and improving the workflow of their peers and themselves.
If you're an experienced engineer who's comfortable creating complex multi-language software, then we'd love you to join the team!
We’ll trust you to:
- Develop the fundamental tools to automate the Terminal
- Work predominantly with TypeScript and sometimes C++, C#, Gherkin and more
- Work with Chromium/Webkit via the Chrome Devtools Protocol
- Implement a Chrome Devtools Protocol service
- Open the Terminal to be automated via existing OSS solutions
- Be on the cutting edge of shaping the developer experience
You’ll need to have:
- Demonstrated experience working with an object-oriented programming language (TypeScript, Python, Java, etc.)
- JavaScript/TypeScript development experience at scale (preferably Electron or Node.js)
- A Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience
- An understanding of Computer Science fundamentals such as data structures and algorithms
- Prior contributions to system design and architecture and scaling fault-tolerant systems
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
We’d love to see:
- Experience with Behavior Driven Design / Test Driven Development
- Experience in writing MCPs
