IT Lead Product Analyst Vice President

Citi is seeking a Lead Market Risk Product Analyst to own the end-to-end user experience for market risk analytics across one of the world's most complex trading environments, translating petabyte-scale risk data into the intuitive dashboards and data models that senior leaders rely on every day. In this role, you will sit at the intersection of quantitative risk, data engineering, and product thinking — designing the semantic layer and analytical front ends that turn raw sensitivities, VaR outputs, and stress P&L calculations into clear, actionable intelligence. Your impact will be felt immediately: the tools you design and the models you build will directly shape how Citi understands and manages market risk at a global scale.

Responsibilities

• Define and maintain curated data models that serve as a stable semantic layer for all market risk analytics, ensuring user-facing tools remain consistent as underlying data sources evolve.

• Design and prototype interactive dashboards in Tableau and Power BI that surface VaR, stress P&L, and risk sensitivity data in formats that are immediately usable by senior risk managers.

• Translate the full market risk data lifecycle — from granular sensitivity inputs and full-revaluation pricing outputs through to aggregated risk metrics — into clear, structured data products.

• Bridge senior business users in Risk and Markets with technology teams, converting complex business requirements into precise, actionable specifications for data and engineering teams.

• Partner with UI/UX and development teams to shape requirements for custom analytical front ends, ensuring every user-facing output is intuitive and performant.

• Collaborate with data platform and API engineering teams to evaluate platform capabilities and provide structured feedback that aligns technical delivery with evolving business needs.

• Champion a product-oriented approach to analytics delivery, prioritising the clarity, usability, and business relevance of every output consumed by risk decision-makers.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Around 10 years of hands-on experience as a Business Analyst, Data Analyst, or Product Owner within a Capital Markets or Market Risk technology function.

• Deep expertise in market risk concepts including VaR, Stress Testing, and risk sensitivities, combined with knowledge of financial products and regulatory frameworks such as FRTB.

• Demonstrated ability to design data models and semantic layers for business intelligence platforms, with a clear track record of delivering analytics used by senior stakeholders.

• Hands-on skills with Tableau or Power BI, including end-to-end dashboard design from requirements through to production delivery.

• Proficiency in Python for independent data analysis, exploration, and rapid prototyping of analytical solutions.

• Technical grounding in modern data ecosystems, including S3-based storage, in-memory query technologies such as Apache Pinot, and federated query engines such as Apache Trino.

• Exceptional communication skills with the ability to explain complex data flows to engineers and translate risk metrics clearly for senior business stakeholders.

Beneficial Skills & Qualifications

• A combination of technical and financial academic credentials, such as an Engineering or Computer Science degree alongside a CFA, FRM, or CQF qualification.

• Familiarity with modern AI tools applied to accelerate requirements gathering, data analysis, or analytical prototyping.

• A user-centric approach to analytical problem-solving, with experience designing outputs that balance technical rigour with business usability.
