Citi's Offensive Security and Vulnerability Management (OSVM) team is hiring practitioners who can run security assessments against AI systems and use AI-powered tools to make security testing faster and more effective.

The AI Offensive Security Analyst is an operational role on a team that runs penetration tests, vulnerability assessments, and Red Team adversarial evaluations across Citi's application portfolio. The AI dimension is twofold: you'll test AI systems as a target, and you'll use AI tools as part of how you work. We're looking for someone to help build the tools from scratch and who knows how to get the most out of them, knows their limits, and can operate in an environment where the right approach isn't always obvious yet.

• AI-driven vulnerability management. When frontier models can generate thousands of findings in a weekend, the bottleneck shifts from discovery to triage, verification, and remediation. We're building the pipeline that makes this sustainable.

• Security architecture for the AI era. Defining how a global bank deploys, monitors, and governs agentic AI — from standards and evaluation frameworks to production runtime monitoring.

• AI at scale, not in a lab. Citi has deployed AI tools to 180,000+ employees, equipped 30,000 developers with AI coding assistants, and is rolling out agentic AI capabilities firm wide. Securing that footprint and the platforms that underpin them is the job.

• Securing AI agents that can behave like insider threats. Frontier models can harvest credentials, escape sandboxes, and adapt when they detect monitoring. We're designing the containment architectures and runtime controls to operate them safely at enterprise scale.

• Real security engineering. Thisisn'ta cyber seat whereyou'llspend your timeinadministration.
