The Managed Systems Platform Engineering Automation Services team mission is to build, support, and provide the underlying infrastructure that delivers configuration management, orchestration, and last mile execution for the machines that compose the managed fleet at Bloomberg. We do this by building on top of best of breed open source projects (Apache Airflow, Saltstack, Chef, Ansible); working to provide not just reliability for the fleet but the power of these tools to the thousands of developers at Bloomberg.

The team focuses on providing Automation services and best practices across the Technology Infrastructure group through technical leadership, designing for scale and converging the roadmaps of our tools to offer a distinct trusted solution for delivering product goals. We view ourselves as a hybrid, splitting effort between both systems reliability engineering and traditional development; our primary focus is always ensuring the services we support are functioning smoothly.

What are we focused on today?

We are currently focused on multiple projects that redesign the infrastructure of the services we develop and maintain to better support the future of the managed fleet.
