Capital One's Legal Department is seeking a highly motivated attorney to serve as a legal expert on a law of foundational importance to the company's major lines of business, including its credit card divisions: the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The attorney in this position will join our small team of legal professionals focusing on rapidly evolving areas in privacy and consumer protection, including data sharing and generative AI. This attorney will be responsible for interpreting FCRA and providing advice in support of numerous business-critical initiatives concerning the use of consumer reports. In this role, you will work closely with colleagues within the Legal Department, as well as with business, compliance, and risk partners across Capital One. You will operate at the intersection of financial services and technology, and you will issue-spot, problem-solve, and innovate to assess and mitigate legal risk in a competitive market. We are looking for a candidate with an ownership mentality who also enjoys being part of a team, who can interact with and influence across departments and job levels, and who demonstrates curiosity, humility, and a good sense of humor. A successful candidate will bring: demonstrated judgment; exceedingly clear and accessible writing; genuine curiosity about about technology and business processes; nuanced awareness of developments in the regulatory environment; a persistent desire to understand the sources, evolution, and policy rationales behind the law; and the ability to express complex concepts in simple terms to non-experts.
