About this role

Data Operations Engineering (DOE)

When BlackRock was started in 1988, its founders envisioned a company that combined the best of financial services with cutting edge technology.

They imagined a business that would provide financial services to clients as well as technology services to other financial firms.

The result of their vision is Aladdin, our industry leading, end-to-end investment management platform. With assets valued over USD $7 trillion managed on Aladdin, our technology empowers millions of investors to save for retirement, pay for college, buy a home and improve their financial wellbeing.

Data is at the heart of Aladdin and increasingly the ability to consume, store, analyze and gain insight from data has become a key component of our competitive advantage.

The DOE team is responsible for the data ecosystem within BlackRock. Our goal is to build and maintain a leading edge data platform that provides highly available, consistent data of the highest quality for all users of the platform, notably investors, operations teams and data scientists.

We focus on evolving our platform to deliver exponential scale to the firm, powering the future growth of Aladdin.

Software engineers at BlackRock get to experience working at one of the most recognized financial companies in the world while being part of a software development team responsible for next generation technologies and solutions.

Deployment and maintenance require close interaction with various teams. This requires maintaining a positive and collaborative working relationship with teams within DOE and with the wider Aladdin developer community.

Production support for applications is usually required for issues that cannot be resolved by the operations team. Creative and inventive problem-solving skills for reduced turnaround times are highly valued.

Preparing user documentation to maintain both development and operations continuity is integral to the role. Adhering to BlackRock's UX and design standards is expected and contributing towards the upkeep of those standards is encouraged.
