Job Overview Why This Team The Chief Information Security Office (CISO) is home to deeply talented colleagues that work to ensure the safety of Citi's clients', our revenue, our employees and our proprietary data. We manage information security as one end-to end program - one with a clear mandate and accountability. Our mission is a program that is fully anchored to modern control and architectural frameworks, is fully aligned with the enterprise architecture of the firm and is deeply integrated into the businesses and functions. AI Security Specialist AI models can now autonomously discover and exploit zero-day vulnerabilities in production software - and we're building the defensive capability to match.

We're building the pipeline that makes this sustainable. Security architecture for the AI era. Defining how a global bank deploys, monitors, and governs agentic AI - from standards and evaluation frameworks to production runtime monitoring. AI at scale, not in a lab. Citi has deployed AI tools to 180,000+ employees, equipped 30,000 developers with AI coding assistants, and is rolling out agentic AI capabilities firm wide. Securing that footprint and the platforms that underpin them is the job. Securing AI agents that can behave like insider threats. Frontier models can harvest credentials, escape sandboxes, and adapt when they detect monitoring. We're designing the containment architectures and runtime controls to operate them safely at enterprise scale. Real security engineering. This isn't a cyber seat where you'll spend your time in administration . You will be expected to understand the code, the architecture, the threats, and find solutions. You'll have the mandate and the backing to build something meaningful. What You'll Work On Depending on your background and interests, you could join one of four teams: Offensive Security
