Software Engineering Intern
Joining Bloomberg's Core Communications Distribution team in London, working on infrastructure for real-time event distribution used by Bloomberg's IB and MSG platforms.
- ▸Part of the Core Communications Distribution team building infrastructure for real-time event distribution
- ▸Working on scalable, low-latency systems in a high-performance production environment
- ▸Systems powering Bloomberg's IB (Instant Bloomberg) and MSG platforms
- ▸6-month software engineering placement starting March 2026
Context
Bloomberg builds the infrastructure that powers global financial markets. Their systems handle massive volumes of real-time data and support workflows that financial institutions around the world depend on every day.
I'll be joining the London engineering office for a six-month placement starting March 2026, on the Core Communications Distribution team.
What I'll Be Working On
The Core Communications Distribution team builds infrastructure for real-time event distribution — the systems that Bloomberg's IB (Instant Bloomberg) and MSG platforms rely on to move data between services quickly and reliably.
Day-to-day, this means contributing to the design and development of scalable, low-latency systems in a high-performance production environment. Think real-time messaging infrastructure, event routing, and the kind of backend work where milliseconds matter.
Note
This section will be updated with more details once the internship begins.
Why Bloomberg
Honestly, the engineering culture is what stood out. Bloomberg has been refining their core systems for decades, and they take reliability and performance seriously. The chance to work on infrastructure at that scale — systems that directly impact global markets — is hard to pass up.
