Data is at the center of everything we do. As a startup, we disrupted the credit card industry by individually personalizing every credit card offer using statistical modeling and relational databases 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.
As a Data Scientist at Capital One, you'll be part of a team leading the next wave of disruption at a whole new scale. We operate across billions of customer records to unlock big opportunities that help everyday people save money, time, and agony in their financial lives.
The AI Foundations Specialist Models Data Science team builds and ships state-of-the-art scalable architecture and AI/ML solutions for Capital One's award-winning mobile app. We partner with product, tech, and design teams to deliver app features that delight customers with dynamic and personalized experiences. Whether enabling users to chat with Capital One's digital assistant, Eno, or search for useful content, our goal is to create next-generation experiences powered by the latest emerging generative AI technologies.
In this role, you will be the driving force to experiment, innovate, and create next-generation experiences. You will partner with a cross-functional team of data scientists, software engineers, machine learning engineers, and product managers to deliver AI-powered products that change how customers interact with their money. As the expert in Natural Language Processing (NLP), you will harness the power of Large Language Models (LLMs), adapting and fine-tuning them for customer-facing applications.
You will build machine learning and NLP models through all phases of development, from design through training, evaluation, and validation. You will partner with engineering teams to operationalize these models in scalable and resilient production systems that serve 80+ million customers. Your work will require flexing your interpersonal skills to translate the complexity of your work into tangible business goals.
We are looking for individuals who are customer-first, innovative, creative, and leaders. You will thrive on bringing definition to big, undefined problems and aren't afraid to share new ideas. As a leader, you will challenge conventional thinking and work with stakeholders to identify and improve the status quo, while being passionate about talent development for your own team and beyond.
We are an equal opportunity employer (EOE, including disability/vet) committed to non-discrimination in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws. Capital One promotes a drug-free workplace and considers for employment qualified applicants with a criminal history in a manner consistent with the requirements of applicable laws.
