About Capital One: At Capital One, we’re changing banking for good. We were founded on the belief that no one should be locked out of the financial system. We’re dedicated to helping foster a world where everyone has an equal opportunity to prosper.

We’re a bank, but we don’t think like one. We’re always thinking about what’s next, about how we can innovate and inspire, and about how we can develop the tools our customers need to improve their financial lives - by leveraging best in class technology. That’s where you come in. 

About the team: 

As a Director of Technical Program Management (TPM) on Capital One’s Card Tech+ team, we’re looking for someone who has strong technical aptitude, experience of driving large scale enterprise initiatives with the ability to influence leaders as well as cross functional teams that include engineers, product managers and architects. You will support programs that require deep involvement with Card technologies and data.  Come join us on our biggest card modernization journey ever.

In addition to the technical program, you will also work to pave the way for an expanding TPM discipline within the team, by leveraging your industry knowledge and experience to teach the organization what a great TPM can achieve.

  • Exceptional communication and collaboration skills

  • Excellent problem solving and influencing skills

  • A quantitative approach to problem solving and a collaborative implementer to holistic solutions; a systems thinker 

  • Experience as a TPM leader to grow and develop a team of TPMs, while also building the foundations for the TPM practice

  • Ability to simplify the technically complex and drive well-educated decisions across product, engineering, design, and data science representatives

  • Deep focus on execution, follow-through, accountability, and results

  • Exceptional cross-team collaboration; able to work across different functions, organizations, and reporting boundaries to get the job done.

  • Highly tuned emotional intelligence, good listener, and deep seated empathy for teams and partners

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree

  • At least 7 years of experience managing technical programs

Preferred Qualifications:

  • 7+ years of experience designing and building data-intensive solutions using distributed computing

  • 3+ years of experience in building distributed systems & highly available services using cloud computing services / architecture - preferably using AWS

  • 3+ years experience building highly scalable mobile products & platforms

  • 3+ years of experience with Agile delivery

  • 3+ years years experience delivering large and complex programs - where you own the business or technical vision, collaborate with large cross-functional teams, secure commitments on deliverables and unblock teams to land business impact

  • Bachelor's degree in a related technical field (Computer Science, Software Engineering) 

  • MBA or Master’s Degree in a related technical field (Computer Science, Software Engineering) or equivalent experience
