Discover your future at Citi
Working at Citi is far more than just a job. A career with us means joining a team of more than 230,000 dedicated people from around the globe. At Citi, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your career, give back to your community and make a real impact.
Job Overview
Engineer the future of global finance. At Citi, our Tech team doesn’t just support finance - we are helping to redefine it. Every day, $5 trillion crosses through our network. We do business in 180+ countries operating at a scale few can match. From deploying advanced AI to helping shape global markets, we build systems that matter. Look to join a team where your work helps influence economies, your ideas can drive innovation and outcomes, and your growth is backed by mentorship, continuous learning and flexibility with potential hybrid work opportunities. Help solve real-world challenges that touch millions and get the opportunity to build the future of finance with Citi Tech.
Help shape the next generation of AI-powered products in Markets Technology. Join a small, high-impact engineering team in Citi Markets Technology building greenfield Generative AI products that cut across asset classes and push beyond proof-of-concept into real production value. We are looking for AI-first engineers who are excited not just by using the latest LLMs, agents, and emerging design patterns, but by applying them with strong engineering discipline, sound judgement, and a relentless focus on quality. If you want to work on ambitious problems, shape solutions from the ground up, and help define how AI is engineered in one of the most interesting environments in finance, this is the role for you.
The Team
We are a fast-moving team specialising in Generative AI within Markets Technology. Our focus is on building greenfield products that span multiple markets asset classes, solving real problems with modern AI engineering approaches. We work at the frontier of what is practical and valuable with LLMs - exploring agentic patterns, orchestration approaches, retrieval techniques, and emerging design ideas - while staying grounded in the fundamentals of robust software engineering. That balance matters to us.
This is an opportunity to join a team that is still small enough for every engineer to have genuine influence, but already delivering work that is making waves across Markets Technology.
The Role
As a Vice President in the team, you will be a hands-on engineer building and shaping next-generation AI systems for Markets. You will design and develop production-grade services and applications, primarily in Python, and help turn fast-evolving AI capabilities into scalable, maintainable, well-engineered solutions.
You will work on greenfield initiatives from idea through to production, contributing not only code but also architecture, patterns, engineering standards, and product thinking. We are looking for people who can see the bigger picture, bring ideas, challenge assumptions, and help us build the right thing - not just build the thing right.
What You’ll Do
What We’re Looking For
What Makes This Role Different
This is not a role focused on maintaining legacy systems or building isolated demos. This is a chance to help define how Generative AI is applied in Markets at meaningful scale. You will join a team that values engineering excellence, speed, and creativity in equal measure - a team using the latest AI capabilities, but doing so with the seriousness and technical depth needed to build real platforms and products.
If you are excited by greenfield AI engineering, passionate about modern software craft, and want to work in a team where your ideas and technical judgement will genuinely matter, we’d love to hear from you.
What we’ll provide you
By joining Citi, you will not only be part of a business casual workplace with a hybrid working model (up to 2 days working at home per week), but also receive a competitive base salary (which is annually reviewed), and enjoy a whole host of additional benefits such as:

The Team
Man Group has been at the forefront of applying technology and data science to investment management for over three decades. Today, that legacy is driving a firm-wide AI transformation with over 1,500 employees using our AI platform daily, adoption has reached a critical inflection point and momentum continues to build. We’re now hiring an AI specialist to partner with teams across the business, turning that momentum into tangible, measurable outcomes.
This is not a research role. It’s not a pure engineering role. It’s the person who sits at the intersection of business problems and AI capabilities, and makes things happen. You’ll become an expert in how Man Group operates our products, our processes, our systems, our people and use that knowledge to identify where AI creates the most value, then build it, ship it, and help others do the same.
You’ll work across the entire firm: sitting with a Sales team to understand why an RFP takes 5 days, then building a prototype that gets it to 48 hours. Running a workshop with Legal to map their document review process, then designing an AI workflow that halves the time. Helping a Portfolio Manager understand what Claude Code can do for their research process, then pairing with them to build it.
You’ll shape the role, the approach and help drive strategy.
We’re looking for someone who:
Gets energy from solving other people’s problems, not just their own
Is curious about how a business actually works the messy reality, not the org chart
Can context-switch between a deeply technical conversation and a commercial one in the same meeting
Has the confidence to challenge senior stakeholders constructively and the humility to learn from them
Sees AI as a tool for making people more capable
Role Responsibilities
Accelerate education and engagement
Solve real business problems with AI
Drive process transformation
Build the AI product knowledge

Head of Machine Learning Modeling
A global quantitative trading organization built around engineering excellence, scientific thinking, and fully automated trading.
Our teams create everything in-house—from the research infrastructure to the algorithms that run live in markets around the world.
We trade a wide mix of products, including equities, derivatives, options, commodities, rates, and crypto using both high-frequency and mid-frequency strategies.
Our dedicated team members are located across multiple continents, and while we maintain physical offices, our workflow is currently designed for a remote environment.
About the Role
We’re hiring an experienced ML leader to guide the next generation of predictive modeling that powers our research and trading systems. In this role, you’ll own the strategy, design, and execution of our modeling framework—from architecture choices to validation standards to production governance.
You’ll collaborate closely with quant researchers, data specialists, engineers, and traders to turn cutting-edge research into reliable, high-performance models used in live trading.
Responsibilities
You’ll be responsible for one of the most critical layers of our research platform—the modeling engine that feeds our trading systems. Your work will influence how we research, validate, and deploy ML-driven signals across the firm.

The Strat team is responsible for designing, building and maintaining the code that handles the data priming, the model execution and the post-processing of the solution into a format that clients can consume.

Being comfortable with inter-library dependencies, python package management and continuous development practices is also crucial.
In addition to building the calculations, the Strat team is on the front-line when it comes to executing the multilateral optimization runs, which occur multiple times a week. This requires a high level of engagement with our Production team, to provide timely support during runs and help resolve issues as they arise in real time. A client-focused approach is therefore of paramount importance for the role. Successful candidates will build and support one or more of Quantile products. They work directly with our Production and Product Development teams to enhance the products based on feedback from clients and analysis of runs, as well as on strategic projects. We are looking for a junior quantitative developer to work on our optimisation services development and analytics.
