Our Team

Citi’s North America Digital Development team creates customer-facing solutions for one of the most impactful products in the world: personal finances. Our team is responsible for application development of all North America internet and mobile applications supporting Citi Cards, Citibank, and Citi Mortgage clients — including award-winning digital channels like Citi Mobile for iPhone, Citi Mobile for Android, and Citi Online.

Over the past few years, we have transformed our organization to fully embrace Agile development, build an engineering-led culture, and embark on newer technologies including Platform as a Service (PaaS), Microservices, and Web APIs.

We’re a company with more than 200 years of history. We’re proud of that, but we’re equally excited about the changes we’re making to transform our uses of technology and our relationship with our customers.

Your Role

You’d be placed in an Agile development team, building software that shows up on the phones and computer screens of millions of customers every day. While technologies can vary slightly from team to team, our dev roles typically break down into four categories:

• Microservices: Java, Spring Framework, Pivotal Cloud Foundry
• iOS: Swift, Xcode
• Android: Java, Android Studio, JavaScript, CSS, AJAX, Java Web Services
• Web: Angular (latest version), Eclipse, Java, JSP, TypeScript, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, AJAX

Most teams operate in four-week sprints, building software for a series of major and minor releases throughout the year.

Mobility

To start, you’d likely be placed into one of the above four roles, based upon a mix of our needs and your skills and interests.

Most scrum teams have developers working in each of these areas. Unless you have a strong preference to specialize, over time we’ll look to expose you to all four so you can develop into a full-stack engineer.

Training

Soon after joining, you’ll go through several weeks of training to better understand our applications, team structure and processes. You’ll also have a chance to dive deeper into the technical aspects of your role so that you can hit the ground running. Our goal is to equip you with the tools you need to get off to a bright start at Citi.

But the learning can’t stop there. As technology evolves, you must adapt. Through access to additional instructor-led trainings and free access to thousands of hours of content via Udemy, Pluralsight and other online platforms, you’ll never stop growing your skillset. In addition to your manager and teammates, you’ll also be paired with a member of our team who will conduct regular 1:1 meetings with you to ensure we’re providing the right challenges, learning opportunities and career growth you’re looking for.

Communication/Leadership

While most of your time will be spent coding, this is a highly collaborative environment that will also make use of your communication and influencing skills. Whether you’re working with a Technical Product Manager to size user stories, helping demo a product to a business partner, or working with internal stakeholders like Software Architecture or Security, we need engineers who can clearly communicate technical concepts, be great teammates, and influence without authority. You’ll be entrusted with meaningful work that impacts our customers, and you’ll be empowered to suggest new ideas.
