The Application Framework Functions team is a full-stack team writing TypeScript (transitioning from JavaScript!) applications for deployment, monitoring and troubleshooting applications & services. Every engineer at Bloomberg who writes UI’s depends on our apps. Help us solve frequent challenges and speed up workflows, such as:

•  Automating controlled release process
•  Debugging & diagnosing issues during various stages of release
•  Detecting issues (before clients notice!)
•  Identifying performance bottlenecks

Our team members are empowered to research and design solutions, gather feedback through RFC’s and choose the appropriate implementation strategy. We use the newest features available in building rich UIs. We take pride in these rich UIs that are discoverable and usable, thanks to our customer focus and collaboration with Bloomberg’s UX team. We also own, develop, and maintain the backend crash event aggregation infrastructure – a distributed backend system consisting of multiple services working together that allows for quick processing of all incoming crash events from various layers of Terminal infrastructure across both client and server. These are critical components to the incident management workflow, clusterization of issues, their categorization, and analytics.

Our tools are also heavily used by the client-facing technical support teams to help diagnose client technical issues and gain insights into the overall landscape of our client environments, so the impact is huge - not just on engineering.  

The tech stack comprises React, TypeScript, as well as JavaScript and C++ backend services, Apache Solr, SQL, Redis, distributed message queues, and various other middleware technologies.
