Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Senior Software Developer Jobs at Bloomberg Jobs
Align your portfolio to Bloomberg's stack
Bloomberg builds heavily on C++, Python, and distributed systems. Before applying, make sure your resume and GitHub reflect concrete experience in those areas. Hiring managers for Senior Software Developer roles screen for depth in systems programming, not breadth across frameworks.
Target teams with active LCA filings
Bloomberg spans financial data, analytics, and infrastructure. Search the DOL's LCA disclosure data for job titles and work locations to identify which Bloomberg teams are actively filing. Roles tied to their core terminal and data products tend to have the most consistent sponsorship activity.
Clarify visa type early in the process
Bloomberg sponsors H-1B, H-1B1, E-3, and Green Card pathways. If you're Australian or a Singapore or Chile national, ask your recruiter about H-1B1 or E-3 eligibility early. These cap-exempt visas avoid the H-1B lottery entirely and can accelerate your start date.
Prepare for a multi-round technical interview
Bloomberg's Senior Software Developer interviews typically include low-level systems design, data structures, and a domain-specific round tied to financial products. Arriving with a clear narrative about why your technical background applies to their product surface area strengthens your offer position.
Understand the PERM timeline before negotiating a start date
If your offer leads to an EB-2 or EB-3 Green Card, PERM labor certification typically takes 12 to 18 months before USCIS adjudication begins. Factor that into your timeline conversation with the employer so your start date and status remain aligned throughout the process.
Use Migrate Mate to filter Bloomberg openings by visa type
Bloomberg posts Senior Software Developer roles across multiple teams simultaneously. Use Migrate Mate to filter active Bloomberg openings by the visa types they sponsor, so you're applying to positions where sponsorship is already confirmed rather than discovering eligibility late in the process.

Find Senior Software Developer at Bloomberg JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Bloomberg sponsor H-1B visas for Senior Software Developers?
Yes, Bloomberg sponsors H-1B visas for Senior Software Developer roles. They also sponsor H-1B1 visas for eligible nationals from Singapore and Chile, E-3 visas for Australian citizens, and employment-based Green Cards through the EB-2 and EB-3 categories. The specific pathway offered typically depends on your nationality and the team you're joining.
How do I apply for Senior Software Developer jobs at Bloomberg?
Applications go through Bloomberg's careers portal, where Senior Software Developer roles are posted by team and location. You can also find and filter Bloomberg's open positions on Migrate Mate, which lets you browse by visa sponsorship type before you apply. The interview process typically includes a recruiter screen, technical assessments covering systems design and data structures, and domain-specific rounds relevant to Bloomberg's financial products.
Which visa types does Bloomberg commonly use for Senior Software Developer roles?
Bloomberg uses H-1B for most internationally sponsored Senior Software Developer hires. Australian citizens can pursue the E-3 visa, which is cap-exempt and avoids the annual H-1B lottery. Nationals from Singapore and Chile may qualify for the H-1B1. For long-term hires, Bloomberg also supports EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card sponsorship through the PERM labor certification process.
What qualifications does Bloomberg expect for Senior Software Developer roles?
Bloomberg typically looks for a bachelor's or master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field, combined with several years of professional software development experience. Senior roles generally require depth in C++, Python, or Java, along with demonstrated experience in distributed systems or large-scale data infrastructure. Domain knowledge in financial data products is a strong differentiator at the senior level.
How do I time my Bloomberg application around the H-1B cap?
The H-1B cap opens for new registrations in March each year, with lottery selection occurring shortly after. Bloomberg typically submits petitions for selected candidates ahead of the October 1 start date. If you're not selected in the lottery, Bloomberg can explore cap-exempt alternatives like E-3 or H-1B1 depending on your nationality, or time a reapplication for the following cycle.
