161 Bay Street (93021), Canada, Toronto,Toronto, Ontario,
Data Science Manager
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.
As a Data Science Manager at Capital One, you’ll manage a team that’s leading the next wave of disruption at a whole new scale, using the latest in distributed computing technologies and operating across billions and billions of customer transactions to unlock the big opportunities that help everyday people save money, time, and agony in their financial lives.

On any given day, you could be:

• Overseeing the development of software to clean and investigate large, messy data sets of numerical and textual data
• Networking with various teams to explore internal and external data sources and APIs to help uncover new trends and improve analysis
• Designing and contributing to highly scalable data pipelines, tools, and products to enable the analyst community to fully leverage the power of AWS
• Using industry-leading machine learning techniques to build and optimize credit models and underwriting infrastructure
• Working with your team to analyze large swaths of data in order to optimize various business programs
• Managing and developing talent to drive a highly performant and engaged team
• Investigating the impact of new technologies on the future of digital banking and the financial world of tomorrow

The Ideal Candidate will be:

• Curious: You ask why, you explore, you’re not afraid to blurt out your disruptive idea. You know how the latest tech works, yet you are constantly exploring new open source tools, and hitting up stack overflow on a regular basis.
• Crafty: You know how to get things done. You can navigate a large organization, motivate people, and influence your peers.
• Creative: Big, undefined problems and petabytes of data don’t frighten you. You’re used to working with abstract data, and you love discovering new narratives in unmined territories.
• Inspiring: You have a passion for developing people and take great pride in your management system. You know how to deliver through others while paving the way for their growth.
• Proactive: You will want to share your knowledge with your peers and contribute back to inner/open source projects which you might consume.
