Job description

Production Support, Principal Associate - Capital One Software (Remote)

Ever since our first credit card customer in 1994, Capital One has recognized that technology and data can enable even large companies to be innovative and personalized. As one of the first large enterprises to go all-in on the public cloud, Capital One needed to build cloud and data management tools that didn’t exist in the marketplace to enable us to operate at scale in the cloud. And in 2022, we publicly announced Capital One Software and brought our first B2B software solution, Slingshot, to market.

Building on Capital One’s pioneering adoption of modern cloud and data capabilities, Capital One Software is helping accelerate the data management journey at scale for businesses operating in the cloud. If you think of the kind of challenges that companies face – things like data publishing, data consumption, data governance, and infrastructure management – we’ve built tools to address these various needs along the way. Capital One Software will continue to explore where we can bring our solutions to market to help other businesses address these same needs going forward.

4. Diagnose and resolve software issues in a timely and efficient manner to meet service level agreements (SLAs).
5. Monitor system performance and proactively identify potential issues before they impact users.
6. Create and maintain comprehensive documentation related to troubleshooting procedures, system configurations, and support processes.
7. Share knowledge with team members and contribute to the development of training materials.
8. Work closely with cross-functional teams, including software developers, product managers, and platform engineers to address and resolve complex technical issues.
9. Collaborate with Level 3 support to perform root cause analysis and contribute to long-term solutions.
10. Communicate effectively with customers to understand and troubleshoot issues, providing timely updates and resolutions.
11. Ensure a high level of customer satisfaction through professional and courteous interactions.
12. Identify opportunities for automation to streamline repetitive tasks and enhance efficiency.
13. Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, suggesting and implementing process enhancements.
14. Participate in on-call rotations to provide 24/7 support for major incidents.
