Senior Software Engineer - MySQL Data Infrastructure

Bloomberg

About the Role

Bloomberg is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the DataHub Engineering team, which provides a distributed platform for hosting datasets, complete with managed data stores, search, discovery, lakehouse, and real-time stream processing capabilities. This platform serves as a single place within the company to discover, access, publish, and subscribe to data.

The DataHub team introduced the concept of a “dataset” and invented a schema language to formally define all data at Bloomberg, including schema evolution, versioning, and true point-in-time semantics. The team was the first to introduce technologies such as Kafka, Avro, company-wide Dataset Schema Registry, Mesos, Clustered MySQL, Vitess, and Spark for ETL at Bloomberg.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain large clusters of Distributed Datastores composed of engines like MySQL/MyRocks scaled using Vitess to Petabytes of data with millisecond response on billions of reads and writes across hundreds of independent financial applications.
  • Ensure platform reliability, observability, and efficiency.
  • Customize Kubernetes clusters to meet specific needs.

Who You Are

  • You have a strong curiosity, kindness, and an appetite to continually learn and share knowledge.
  • You possess 4+ years of software engineering experience.
  • You have experience with an object-oriented programming language, ideally Python or Golang.
  • You have prior experience diagnosing failures in MySQL or related database engines and replication protocols.
  • You have experience building reliable data infrastructure.
  • A Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a similar field of study, or equivalent work experience is required.

We’d Love to See

  • Contributions to open source projects related to Vitess, MySQL, RocksDB, or MyRocks.
  • Vitess production experience.
  • Experience building custom resource controllers and Kubernetes operators.
