Job description

Product Management at Capital One is a booming, vibrant craft that requires reimagining the status quo, finding value creation opportunities, and driving innovative and sustainable customer experiences through technology. We believe our portfolio of businesses and investments in growth and transformation will result in a company with the scale, brand, capabilities, talent, and values to succeed as the digital revolution transforms our society and our industry.

About The Team

Capital One is a fast-growing Fortune 100 organization accelerating its growth by leveraging innovative and emerging technologies. As the first major financial services company to leverage the Public Cloud as a primary infrastructure provider, we build modern tech stacks that differentiate our business rather than just operating it.

As Director of Product for "Build it Right," you will redefine how innovation, security, and velocity intersect across Capital One’s high-stakes, cloud-native technology ecosystem. Positioned at the nexus of engineering excellence and enterprise trust, you will champion a unified product vision across three foundational pillars: Service Enablement, expanding secure access to cutting-edge cloud capabilities; Enterprise Architecture, streamlining application approvals and embedding architectural best practices; and a centralized Policy-as-Code Platform, driving continuous, automated discovery and enforcement of technical standards. In this role, you will re-imagine traditional governance into intuitive "paved roads"—turning regulatory complexity into a frictionless launchpad that empowers engineering teams to build fast, build safely, and build with confidence.

As an inspiring executive and people leader, you will empower a high-performing group of customer-obsessed Product Managers dedicated to solving real-world friction for developers, risk officers, and cybersecurity partners. You will champion an environment that aggressively leverages AI as a force multiplier—using intelligent automation to accelerate policy discovery, automate architecture reviews, and deliver predictive risk insights. Beyond driving platform adoption and developer velocity, you will serve as a key strategic bridge across technology, risk, and executive leadership, establishing outcomes that prove enterprise governance and rapid delivery can coexist seamlessly. If you are a visionary platform leader passionate about talent development, modern architecture, and shaping the future of financial technology at scale, this role will be the catalyst for Capital One's next era of engineering leadership.
