About the role

Capital One is seeking a Data Engineer 4 (Manager, IC) to join a high-impact data engineering team. You will design, build and operate cloud-first data solutions, mentor teammates, and enforce data engineering best practices across platforms. The role emphasizes collaboration with product managers and engineers to deliver scalable data pipelines, secure data platforms, and robust data models leveraging Spark, Python, SQL, and NoSQL databases.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
