As a senior lead analyst in the Applications Development Technology team at Citi, you will be responsible for leading the design and development of wealth-lending platforms such as SBL, margin lending, and structured credit. Your daily tasks include hands-on coding of core APIs, distributed services, and orchestration components while architecting horizontally scalable, cloud-native systems that support high-throughput workflows and real-time decision-making. You will apply analytical skills to decompose complex requirements into modular, event-driven systems and establish engineering standards for API contracts, resiliency patterns, observability, and secure coding practices. Additionally, you will guide the team through code reviews and technical mentoring, ensuring services are fault-tolerant and horizontally elastic in modern cloud environments. This role requires expertise in distributed systems design, microservices architecture, and experience with cloud technologies like Kubernetes and AWS.
