Primary Responsibilities
  • Develop, implement and govern ontologies and optimized data models in consultation with stakeholders in teams dedicated to improving data discoverability, search, and product development
  • Contribute to data integration and mapping efforts to harmonize data with Capital One's upper and domain ontologies

Role-Based Competencies

  • Communicator & Influencer. You can communicate complex ideas clearly regardless of your audience. Our team knows their priorities and why they're doing what they're doing. You always can rally associates to work with you
  • Do-er. You're biased toward action, you try things and sometimes you fail. You can get around roadblocks and stay focused on your goals. You're well organized, able to multitask and able to prioritize your work
  • Passionate & Customer Focus. You care about growing others and bringing them together around what's possible. You get a thrill from the journey of building and shipping products, and you have a desire and ability to connect with our external or internal customers to fully understand their needs
  • Learner. You have an appetite to learn new things or new technologies all while exhibiting humbleness when the time comes to ask for help
  • Team Player. You enjoy working with diverse people and driving the team toward a common goal. You have the ability to put the team before yourself and establish long-lasting relationships


Basic Qualifications
