About The Position
At Capital One, data is at the center of everything we do. When we launched 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!

As a Director, Data Analysis you will partner cross-functionally with teams throughout the company to validate business impacting analytical tools. You will enhance your technical and analytical skills, while also working with leaders to influence business strategies. With a network of hundreds of Data Analysts, Quants, and Data Scientists, challenging projects with an eye on the bottom line and a focus on work/life balance, we’ve created a dynamic environment with plenty of room for you to learn, grow, and realize your full potential. The Global Payment Network - Risk Management team leverages large-scale transaction data, risk modeling, and advanced analytics to inform key strategic decisions regarding how we identify, monitor, and mitigate systemic risks. Your role will be to help execute on our ambitious agenda, which includes reinventing our data reporting architecture, establishing robust governance frameworks for emerging payment types, and integrating predictive risk signals into our core network oversight processes.
