We are a technology-oriented company delivering financial  products to market through modern technology and constant innovation at a massive scale.

Still founder-led by Chairman and CEO Richard Fairbank, we dare to dream, disrupt and deliver a better way for our customers, the financial industry and for each other. Our goal is simple – bring ingenuity, simplicity and humanity to an industry ripe for change.

As an Analyst at Capital One, you’ll be part of a team that’s leading the next wave of disruption at a whole new scale, using the latest in computing and machine learning technologies and operating across billions of customer records to unlock the big opportunities that help everyday people save money, time and agony in their financial lives.

Team Description
At Capital One India, we are at the cutting edge of solving some of the fundamental business problems using advanced data methodologies, statistics, and machine learning algorithms. In the Model Risk Management team, we defend the company against model failures and find new ways of making better decisions with models. We use our statistics, software engineering, and business expertise to drive the best outcomes in both Risk Management and the Enterprise. We also understand that we can’t prepare for tomorrow by focusing on today, so we invest in the future: investing in new skills, building better tools, and maintaining a network of trusted partners. We learn from past mistakes and develop increasingly powerful techniques to avoid their repetition.

Responsibilities:

• Partner cross-functionally with data scientists, quantitative analysts, business analysts, software engineers, and project managers to manage the risk and uncertainty inherent in statistical and machine learning models in order to lead Capital One to the best decisions, not just avoid the worst ones.

• Build and validate statistical and machine learning models through all phases of development, from design through training, evaluation and implementation.

• Develop new ways of identifying weak spots in model predictions earlier and with more confidence than the best available methods.

• Leverage a broad stack of technologies — Python, R, Conda, AWS, and more — to reveal the insights hidden within huge volumes of data

• Build upon your existing machine learning and statistical toolset - both by learning new technologies and by building custom software tools for data exploration, model performance evaluation, and more

• Communicate technical subject matter clearly and concisely to individuals from various backgrounds both verbally and through written communication 

• Prepare presentations of complex technical concepts and research results to non-specialist audiences and senior management and contribute to technical reports

• Flex your interpersonal skills to translate the complexity of your work into tangible business goals, and challenge model developers to advance their modeling, data, and analytic capabilities

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in a quantitative field (Business, Math, Economics, Finance, Statistics, Science, Engineering)

• At least 2 years of work experience in analysis

Preferred Skills:

• Master’s Degree in Business or quantitative field such as Finance, Economics, Physical Sciences, Math, Statistics, Engineering
