Senior Vice President, Product Manager — Technical & AI-Enabled - Investor Services

Are you looking for a career move that will put you at the heart of a global financial institution? Citi's mission is to serve as a trusted partner to our clients by responsibly providing financial services that enable growth and economic progress. By joining Citi, you will become part of a global organisation at the forefront of financial innovation — where technology, data, and product converge to shape the future of Investor Services.

The role of Product Manager is evolving. It is no longer sufficient to write requirements and hand them to engineering. The most impactful product leaders today are those who can think in systems, prototype in code, and ship with conviction. We are hiring a Technical Product Manager within our Investor Services division to own the product vision and roadmap for strategic platform initiatives (including Citi Velocity today and Citi Direct in the future), while being highly technically literate and ready to build alongside engineering teams, challenge architectural decisions, and prototype solutions directly. This is a product role at its core. You will drive strategy, define OKRs, manage stakeholders, and lead complex change programs. But you will do so with a level of technical depth that sets you apart: you understand codebases, you can read and write code, you can evaluate AI architectures, and you can sit in a room with engineers and contribute — not observe. Our primary stack is Java  and React , with Python  supporting scripting, data pipelines, and AI/ML integrations. Our engineering philosophy is AI-native — we expect you to understand and leverage large language models, agentic workflows, and AI-assisted development as core tools reshaping how products are built and delivered.

Product Strategy and Ownership Define, prioritise, and communicate our product roadmap for strategic application changes, upgrades, and migrations in close partnership with our engineering team, other Product teams and senior leadership. Lead and product-manage complex programs end-to-end — from inception through architecture, data migration, integration, testing, cutover, and successful client adoption. Establish and track OKRs for product success, client adoption rates, and change effectiveness. Implement feedback loops to continuously improve delivery frameworks. Identify where AI, LLMs, and agentic automation can transform Investor Services workflows. Own the product vision for AI-enabled capabilities and drive them from concept to production. Build and maintain strong relationships across Technology, Operations, Product, Sales, Client Services, and external clients within a complex, matrixed global organisation. Ensure adherence to internal policies, regulatory requirements, and industry best practices throughout the product lifecycle, demonstrating sound ethical judgment in a regulated financial services environment. Technical Depth and Hands-On Delivery Prototype solutions, contribute to technical design discussions, and validate approaches by building — using Java, React, or Python as the situation demands. Understand the current landscape of foundation models and make informed product decisions about when to use fine-tuning vs. RAG vs. prompt engineering vs. full agentic orchestration. Evaluate AI architectures proposed by engineering teams with genuine technical judgment. Know the trade-offs around latency, cost, hallucination mitigation, and guardrails in production AI systems. Understand how LLM-powered agents reason, plan, use tools, and orchestrate multi-step tasks autonomously. Be familiar with frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, Google ADK, CrewAI, AutoGen, and Semantic Kernel with the ability to make sound product decisions about feasibility, risk, and their transformative potential. Serve as the critical link between product vision and technical execution. Translate business needs into technical specifications and technical constraints into
