At Citi, you'll have the opportunity to grow your career, give back to your community and make a real impact. Job Overview Treasury and FP&A Technology is seeking a highly accomplished and experienced Senior Engineering Manager to lead the Loan Portfolio Mitigation Application (IRIS). The successful candidate will lead a team of software developers, overseeing the design, development, and implementation of sophisticated credit risk hedge decision systems. This leadership role requires a deep understanding of financial markets, quantitative methodologies, robust software engineering principles, and proven management capabilities to drive strategic initiatives in trading, risk management, and hedging. This is a senior technology leadership role that demands deep technical mastery, sharp business acumen, and a proven track record of architecting and delivering complex, enterprise-grade solutions at scale. The ideal candidate is a practitioner-leader who does not just direct from the sidelines, but actively engages in technical design, architectural decision-making, and hands-on development. You will serve as the definitive technology authority for IRIS, owning end-to-end solutioning from requirements through to production, while simultaneously driving multiple high-performing Agile Scrum teams with pace and precision. A strong grounding in financial engineering is essential - the IRIS platform is, at its core, a sophisticated financial engineering system, encompassing Credit Default Swap (CDS), Collateralized Loan Obligation (CLO), and balance sheet hedging strategies. The successful candidate will be expected to engage fluently with quantitative finance concepts, understand the mathematical and regulatory underpinnings of loan portfolio mitigation, and translate complex financial models into robust, scalable technology solutions. Your ability to communicate with clarity across both technical and non-technical audiences will be as critical as your engineering depth.
