The Cloud Stability team is essential, managing Bloomberg’s private cloud, a massive, critical infrastructure hosting over 100k virtual machines that underpin Bloomberg's most vital applications, including the flagship Terminal and News systems. The team's core mission is to efficiently guarantee the high-availability infrastructure that all clients depend on. Key responsibilities include ensuring reliability of cloud services, establishing comprehensive observability across the fleet, managing infrastructure maintenance and failure response, and executing predictive capacity planning. The team drives this through extensive automation built on tools like Ansible, Airflow, and Flask.

+ Organize and prioritize the backlog of work with the team and stakeholders so that the most important and impactful work is addressed first

+ Work with the engineers in the team to deliver high quality solutions that adhere to best practices.

+ Develop a vision of an optimally run cloud and a roadmap for getting there.


You'll need to have:


+ At least 4+ years experience as a Team Lead of a software development team

+ BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technology field

+ Deep knowledge of software development best practices combined with hands-on skills to coach developers.

+ Ability to foster a collaborative team environment; through driving a strong culture of teamwork and taking advantage of team diversity

+ Ability to effectively listen, communicate, challenge, and influence team members, peers, and senior managers

+ Experience building trust based relationships with stakeholders to pave the way for cross team collaboration and alignment

+ A solid foundation in software development, including best practices, code quality, modular design, testing strategies, CI/CD pipelines, and maintainability.

+ Ability to reason about system behavior, failure domains, and scaling characteristics, enabling effective guidance on stability, reliability, and performance.

+ Architectural fluency across compute, storage, networking, & orchestration technologies.


We'd love to see experience in:


+ Openstack

+ Cloud infrastructure or SRE team

+ Virtual networking, Software Defined Networking

+ Workflow orchestrators such as Airflow and AWX/Ansible
