Manager, Data Science Manager, Data Scientist, Retail Bank Data Science

Data is at the center of everything we do. As a startup, we disrupted the credit card industry by individually personalizing every credit card offer using statistical modeling and the relational database, cutting edge technology in 1988! Fast-forward a few years, and this little innovation and our passion for data has skyrocketed us to a Fortune 200 company and a leader in the world of data-driven decision-making.

As a Data Scientist at Capital One, you’ll be part of a team that’s leading the next wave of disruption at a whole new scale, using the latest in computing and machine learning technologies and operating across billions of customer records to unlock the big opportunities that help everyday people save money, time and agony in their financial lives.

We do data and model pipelining, machine learning, and well-managed model operations using Python, KFP, and ML libraries in our tech stacks.

Role Description In this role, you will:

Partner with a cross-functional team of data scientists, software engineers, and product managers to deliver an experience that helps us book more customers

Take a well-managed approach to building customer-facing decision products while also bolstering our defenses with governed vendor tools that fill a niche and complement our own models

Build machine learning models through all phases of development, from design through training, evaluation, validation, and implementation

Most critically, build connections with your partners to understand the fraud threats of today and tomorrow so you can devise a modeling roadmap that proxies fraud signal from our data, keeping the fraudsters out while making account opening a seamless experience for others
