Job description
Data Analytics Manager - PULSE Risk & Compliance
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! 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.
We are seeking a highly analytical, Manager Data Analysis to join our Data Strategy team. In this role as a Manager, Data Analysis, you will help build the framework and manipulate/analyze large datasets to understand PULSE transaction anomalies and risk exposure.
This is a hybrid role designed for someone who speaks the language of machine learning, data architecture, and modeling, but also deeply understands regulatory frameworks, risk controls, and compliance mandates.
You will be responsible for ensuring that our data-driven strategies are not only highly effective and scalable, but also ethical, explainable, and strictly compliant with industry regulations.
If you are a recovering data scientist who loves policy, or a risk and compliance manager who writes Python on the weekends, this is the role for you.
What you’ll do:
Drive current and future strategy by leveraging your analytical skills
Assist with building and using models to test and validate data
Work with vast amounts of data in new and evolving environments

On any given day you will be:
Mining data to arrive at specific and crucial information for the organization
Identifying and implementing process, data, and reporting improvements for the organization
Working with large and complex databases containing millions to billions of records
Improving operational efficiencies and effectiveness
Conducting analysis to evaluate processes and tests
Extracting and analyzing data to gauge product offerings
Consulting on the design and implementation of new production and data storage systems
Developing and implementing strategic tests of products, initiatives and marketing materials
An ideal candidate will be on the leading edge of Analytical technology with a passion for the newest and most innovative tools. Possessing strong problem solving and conceptual thinking abilities in addition to communication, interpersonal and leadership skills are also important.
