About The Department
Developer Engineering is a new function within ICG Technology. Our mission is to make it easy and enjoyable for software engineering teams to go from a business idea to delivering an innovative product solution. The main goals are to improve and upgrade our tools, streamline our processes, automate and strengthen our controls, and help development teams adopt modern working methods.
This new initiative represents a critical investment in our future development capability. We are building an expert team to transform the working environment of the 18,000 people who make up the ICG development community and help them dramatically change their approach to developing software across the many different technologies we support. The Developer Engineering group has a challenging remit, but with the scale and variety comes a unique opportunity to be agents of cultural and technical change who significantly impact the bank.
About The Team
Within the ICG Developer Engineering department, the Controls Codification group is a dedicated expert team focused on driving the everything-as-code agenda and delivering tangible reductions in process friction, errors, and manual effort to comply with and administer our controls.
The Controls Codification group will build central solutions and platforms, break down technical barriers and strengthen existing systems. The group will have the mandate and a unique opportunity as part of a greenfield programme to impact critical technical decisions across the company and change how the organisation is applying controls and writing policies globally.
The Controls Codification is a cross-functional team of engineers, data scientists, business analysts, and product managers that will directly engineer new codified controls and the underlying capabilities required to support them and drive other groups to provide the automated controls.
They are also cultural and behavioural leaders who are champions of great teamwork and highly opinionated on human-centric approaches to automating and codifying our controls and procedures.
The team will work extremely closely with the Risk and Controls Transformation team to mutually support their work. There is a natural alignment of automation enabling new ways of working, which drives a need to change our controls to be amenable to codification, moving towards new thinking about how we could work. This approach comes with a challenging but exciting opportunity to help change how a significant number of Citi employees work and reduce tedious, repetitive toil - freeing them up to do critical, creative thinking.
About The Role
We are looking for a Senior Business Analyst to join our Controls Codification group. This role will engage business process owners across the organisation, internal and external auditors, and senior leadership at Citi.
Additionally, they will be responsible for understanding how we can effectively codify controls within specific domains, challenge the status quo, and capture relevant requirements to define and execute the Controls Codification platform's vision.
The Senior Business Analyst role will report to the Controls Codification Product Owner.
