Senior Data Management Professional - Data Engineer - Physical Assets

Location:London

Business Area:Data

Ref #:10042065

Description & Requirements

Bloomberg runs on data. Our products are fueled by powerful information. We combine data and context to paint the whole picture for our clients, around the clock – from around the world. In Data, we are responsible for delivering this data, news and analytics through innovative technology - quickly and accurately. We apply problem-solving skills to identify innovative workflow efficiencies, and we implement technology solutions to enhance our systems, products and processes.

The team:
The Physical Assets Data Team maintains databases for physical assets such as renewable and conventional power plants, facilities, and storage projects globally. The team is currently working on a new future-proof data model and workflow that can facilitate and accelerate coverage expansion for integrated use in downstream analysis across our customer groups (including governments, portfolio managers, corporations, equity analysts, etc.). The team also manages the databases powering our iconic DINE terminal function which allows users to discover restaurants worldwide. We track and store data such as restaurant locations, the type of cuisine, ownership relationships, etc. Bloomberg users can also review and rate their dining experiences and see recommendations from colleagues and the larger DINE community.

The Role:
As a Data Engineer on the Physical Assets team, you’re required to understand the data requirements, specify the modeling needs of datasets and use existing techstack solutions for efficient data ingestion workflows and data pipelining. You will implement technical solutions using programming, machine learning, AI, and human-in-the-loop approaches to ensure our data is fit-for-purpose for our clients. You will work closely with our Engineering partners, our Data Product Manager, as well as Product teams, so you need to be able to coordinate with multi-disciplinary and regional teams and have experience in project management and stakeholder engagement. You will need to be comfortable working with large, varied, sophisticated, and often unstructured data sets and demonstrate strong experience in data engineering.

We trust you to:

  1. Build database schema and configure ETL software to onboard new data sets.
  2. Analyze internal processes to find opportunities for improvement, as well as devise and implement innovative solutions.
  3. Build quality data workflows to verify and validate third-party data.
  4. Maintain workflow configurations for critical functions such as acquisition, worklist management, and quality control.
  5. Contribute to the creation of best practices and guidelines for governance.
  6. Partner with Engineering and Product to propose, develop, and implement market-leading solutions for our clients.
  7. Contribute to the technical implementation of a new Physical Assets Data Model.
  8. Understand customer needs and markets to ensure our data sets are fit-for-purpose and seamlessly integrate with other data products when developing data product strategies.
  9. Stay updated on market, industry, and dataset developments related to your area of support.
  10. Make well-informed decisions in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment.
  11. Report on results of ongoing operations and projects, as required.

You’ll need to have:

  1. Understanding and experience of large-scale, distributed systems as well as ETL logics.
  2. Strong passion for data and the overall energy transition movement.
  3. Demonstrated experience with semantic data modeling.
  4. The ability to think creatively and provide out-of-the-box solutions with an eagerness to learn and collaborate.
  5. Familiarity with data processing paradigms and associated tools and technologies.
  6. Exceptional problem-solving skills, numerical proficiency, and high attention to detail.
  7. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, especially when explaining technical processes and solutions to business partners and management.
  8. Ability to work independently as well as in a distributed team environment.

We’d love to see:

  1. Track record of collaborating with Engineering to promote code to production (BREs or DTPs).
  2. Knowledge of Machine Learning frameworks.
  3. Experience in conducting technical training and mentoring others.
  4. Proficiency and previous experience working with Bloomberg tech stack such as BBDS, BCOS, DFR, BRE, DTPs.
  5. Prior experience working with QlikSense (both visualizations and load scripting).

Does this sound like you? Apply if you think we're a good match. We'll get in touch to let you know what the next steps are!

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.

Neurodiversity in Machine Learning Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Machine learning is about more than just models & metrics. It’s about spotting patterns others miss, asking better questions, challenging assumptions & building systems that work reliably in the real world. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a technical career. In reality, many of the traits that can make school or traditional offices hard are exactly the traits that make for excellent ML engineers, applied scientists & MLOps specialists. This guide is written for neurodivergent ML job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a machine learning context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to ML roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in ML – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.
