New York, NY, USA

Description & Requirements

Data security and regulatory compliance are foundational to Bloomberg’s ability to serve clients in a complex, global financial ecosystem. Our group, Access Control & Compliance, sits at the intersection of data governance, platform infrastructure, and financial regulation—building the systems that ensure trusted and compliant access to Bloomberg data and services.

Our Team:

The Access Control team safeguards Bloomberg’s data and functionality by providing modern, highly available entitlement and access control infrastructure. We play a critical role in the company’s data security and risk management initiatives - protecting data integrity and confidentiality across every tier of Bloomberg’s technical stacks.

The Compliance team is responsible for the company's Regulatory Technology initiatives. RegTech is the latest trend in the financial industry and is quickly becoming an industry standard across various FinTech companies. Technology can significantly increase the efficiency and effectiveness of compliance teams, and we are using technology to streamline and automate workflows and processes to help Bloomberg comply with relevant regulations.

Our systems provide:

· Enterprise-wide entitlement enforcement for internal access

· Compliance automation aligned with evolving global regulations (GDPR, DORA, sanctions, etc.)

· Infrastructure for policy enforcement, data classification, and auditability

· Internal tooling via the Bloomberg Terminal

We work closely with Legal, Risk, Compliance and Engineering stakeholders to ensure our systems meet the highest standards for security, transparency, and resilience. In a rapidly shifting regulatory landscape, we are Bloomberg’s first line of defense—delivering scalable, policy-aware, and future-proof access systems.
