At Citi, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your career, give back to your community and make a real impact. The Department: Developer Enablement is a function of the CTO organisation. Our mission is to make it easy and enjoyable for software engineering teams to go from a business idea to delivering an innovative product solution. The main goals are to improve and upgrade our tools, streamline our processes, automate and strengthen our controls, and help development teams adopt modern working methods. The Role: We're seeking a senior technology leader to own and drive the GenAI engineering capability within Developer Enablement. As Director, GenAI Engineering, you will provide strategic and operational leadership, setting direction across multiple teams, shaping the GenAI roadmap, and embedding cutting-edge GenAI practices into the enterprise software delivery landscape. You will balance strategic oversight with informed technical depth, ensuring teams are empowered to deliver scalable, secure, and compliant GenAI solutions aligned to our mission. You’ll be accountable for organisational outcomes rather than individual delivery, translating GenAI research into enterprise-scale, production-grade platforms and capabilities, and ensuring effective transition from experimentation to regulated deployment across the organisation. You will own and shape the engineering strategy and roadmap, contributing to overall product vision while balancing innovation, risk, regulatory expectations, and cost efficiency. You will partner closely with Product, Architecture, Risk, and Security to deliver sustainable GenAI capabilities at scale. Our technology estate includes Python, Go, TypeScript, React, OpenShift, Mongo, and a rapidly evolving GenAI ecosystem. As a Director, you will guide strategic technology choices, platform evolution, and standards, including focusing on hands-on implementation.
