Distinguished Engineer - Capital One Software (Remote-Eligible)

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.

In 2022, we publicly announced Capital One Software and brought our first B2B software solution, Slingshot, to market.

Capital One Software is helping accelerate the data management journey at scale for businesses operating in the cloud. We are building tools for data publishing, consumption, governance, and infrastructure management. Our pioneering team is seeking top tier talent to build and bring these tools to market.
