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

Full Stack Software Engineer (Node.js, Python, GenAI) - Generative AI Products and Platform - Vice President - C13 – Pune
The Opportunity
This is your chance to build the foundational applications systems for 'Citi Assist', a Generative AI assistant that will reach every Citi employee globally. As part of the wider team you'll also support developer productivity, SDLC and Citi-wide initiatives to adopt GenAI tools and technologies. You will join us on the ground floor, becoming a core builder on a high-visibility platform that sets the standard for how a global bank adopts this technology safely and at scale.
What You'll Do
  • Build, Code, and Deliver. This is a hands-on role where you will be a core contributor to our frontend-applications and support our Python backend. Your focus is on writing high-quality, tested code and moving features from idea to production efficiently.
  • Own Your Features End to End. You will take ownership of the features you build. This means you're responsible for not just writing the code, but for figuring out the path forward, asking the right questions, and driving your work to completion without waiting for detailed instructions.
  • Build with Safety and Security in Mind. You will build with a security-first mindset. For us, building safe, sound, and compliant systems is non-negotiable and part of our craft. You will be responsible for implementing security best practices in your code, from technical hardening to considering the emerging challenges of AI safety.
  • Be a Great Teammate. You will make the team better through collaboration. We expect you to be an active participant in our engineering culture; offering and receiving constructive code reviews, helping your peers when they are blocked, and sharing what you learn. We succeed as a team.
  • Live Our Engineering Craftsmanship. You will live our Developer Manifesto. We are a team that believes in engineering discipline---clean code, meaningful commits, tidy branches, and rigorous CI/CD are how we work. You will be accountable for upholding these principles in every commit you make.
  • Take Initiative and Communicate Clearly. This is not a role where you'll be handed detailed specs for every task. We expect you to take ownership of a problem, ask clarifying questions, and then drive your work forward with a high degree of autonomy. This also means communicating your progress and blockers proactively and concisely. No one on the team should ever have to ask you for a status update.
What We're Looking For
  • A pragmatic builder who takes pride in their craft and builds software that lasts.
  • A solutions-first mindset. You find the best path to solve the problem, whether that's writing new code, improving an old system, or integrating the right tool. The outcome is what matters.
  • A bias for action and a focus on shipping. You understand our goal is to deliver value to users, not just to write perfect code. You know when to be pragmatic and when to invest in technical excellence.
  • An instinct for ownership and communication. You are proactive by nature. You don't wait to be told what to do, and you understand that keeping the team aligned through clear communication is your responsibility.
  • A drive for technical excellence and a collaborative spirit. You find satisfaction in building high-quality software, and you thrive in a team environment where you can learn from and help your peers.
  • Deep, hands-on experience building, deploying, and maintaining production-grade Python services.
  • A security-conscious mindset. You see security and safety as part of the job, not an afterthought.
  • A firm grasp of software design patterns and a belief in writing clean, testable, and maintainable code.
  • Comfort with deploying and managing applications in containerized environments (we use OpenShift, but Kubernetes experience is what matters).
  • Practical experience with CI/CD pipelines and a belief in automating everything.
  • Solid experience working with relational databases like Postgres.
Qualifications:
  • 10-15 years of strong Development engineering experience using TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Python.
  • Kubernetes (Red Hat OpenShift), Containers
  • GitHub, CI/CD (e.g., Tekton, Harness), GitHub Copilot
  • Experience with other languages like TypeScript, Go, or Java. It shows your curiosity and adaptability
Our Tech Stack
  • Frontend: TypeScript, React, Next.js
  • Backend: Python
  • Databases: Postgres
  • Infrastructure: Kubernetes (Red Hat OpenShift), Containers
  • DevOps: GitHub, CI/CD (e.g., Tekton, Harness), GitHub Copilot
Our Team, Mission, and Why You Should Join Us
We are team within the central group in the Chief Technology Office (CTO). We're a focused agile team that owns our work from idea to production.
Our culture is built on a shared belief in engineering craftsmanship, backed by leadership that understands what that means. We're on a journey to prove what's possible inside a large organization, and that means navigating some legacy while building the future. This isn't a role for someone who wants everything to be perfect on day one. It's for an engineer who wants to be part of the team that gets us there, influencing how we solve problems and raising our collective bar through their work.
We have a dual mission: build 'Citi Assist,' the GenAI digital assistant for our colleagues, and provide the platforms and guidance that enable the entire organization to improve developer productivity, adopt GenAI and improve the organization as a whole.
This is not a typical banking job. You will build foundational technology that has a direct, positive impact on hundreds of thousands of people. You'll have the executive support to tackle big problems and the autonomy to help shape our solutions. Most importantly, you will join a passionate, collaborative team where we all learn from each other, and we succeed or fail as one.
