Job description

Overview

Technical Product Manager - Metadata Platform Infrastructure

Location: London

Business Area: Engineering and CTO

Ref #: 10045794

About the Team

The Metadata Strategy team, part of Bloomberg's CTO Office, defines and delivers the long-term strategy for how semantic data and metadata are structured, managed, and leveraged across the company. Our mission is to build scalable, intelligent systems that make data more meaningful, discoverable, and interoperable across Bloomberg's diverse products and platforms.

Bloomberg's Metadata Platform is a state-of-the-art system that empowers the creation, management, governance, and distribution of semantic models and metadata across the enterprise. It provides robust capabilities for model-driven metadata enrichment and intelligent distribution pipelines, serving as a foundational layer for knowledge representation and interoperability within Bloomberg's vast and complex data ecosystem.

As a centralized infrastructure, the platform ensures consistency, alignment, and semantic integrity of metadata across all lines of business, internal platforms and a wide array of client-facing workflows. By linking disparate data silos across domains, it unlocks cross-domain querying, advanced analytics, and enhances search and discovery experiences for both internal users and external clients.

The platform plays a strategic role in unifying Bloomberg's data landscape, enabling knowledge-driven applications, semantic interoperability, and streamlined integration across heterogeneous datasets. The Technical Product Owner will play a key role in shaping the future of this platform, working at the intersection of semantic technologies, product strategy, and large-scale data operations.

About the Role

Bloomberg is seeking a highly motivated and technically astute Technical Product Owner to lead the development and evolution of our metadata infrastructure. This role is responsible for defining and driving the roadmap for core components that enable knowledge representation and delivery at scale—including data ingestion pipelines, enrichment and inference frameworks, distribution mechanisms, and (semantic) storage systems.

You will collaborate with engineering, data analysts, ontology developers, and business stakeholders to translate business needs into robust, scalable metadata solutions. You will be accountable for product strategy, technical planning, prioritization, and delivery oversight.

You\'ll need to have

• 8+ years of experience in a technical product management role
• A passion for providing reliable, scalable, and easy-to-use infrastructure
• A product-driven focus, with product management, organizational, and communication skills to effectively coordinate and work with Engineers, other Product Managers, and Senior Management
• Familiarity with agile practices and backlog grooming across cross-functional engineering teams.
• A strong technical or Engineering background and broad technical fluency
• A track record of shaping business strategy and roadmaps for technical products
• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, similar field of study or equivalent work experience
• Breadth of knowledge and familiarity with semantic metadata, enterprise data/metadata platforms and industry best practices and toolings

We\'d love to see

• Applied experience with semantic technologies, W3C standards,
• A good understanding of financial markets , instruments and products
• Experience with system integration
• Experience designing and working with data onboarding pipelines
• Open source involvement or community presence
• Evaluate and champion the use of ontologies, linked data, and graph technologies to meet strategic goals.
• Experience building tools and workflows which support Financial products and services.
