Capital One’s Enterprise Learning Platform and Operations team is seeking a strategic, detail-oriented Principal Associate to help lead and continuously improve end-user support and governance for our enterprise Learning Management System (LMS), One Learn, and related learning technologies. This individual contributor will operate in a highly cross-functional environment and play a critical role in identifying trends, uncovering root causes, and driving proactive, scalable improvements and efficiencies across our learning ecosystem. 

Working closely with the LMS Support & Governance Lead, this role will help shape and execute our learning technology governance strategy to ensure a clean, well-maintained platform environment, strong operating standards, a  high-quality learner and administrator experience, and an efficient user support model. 

The ideal candidate for this role is: 

• A strategic partner who stays current with both learning and operations trends. 

• A solutions-oriented problem solver who likes to go deep to understand the root causes of how processes are structured and work and identify analytically-backed, creative ways to reduce friction and enhance our team’s operations. 

• An iterative results driver who is comfortable in a fast-paced environment with engagement in multiple initiatives simultaneously. The individual enjoys connecting dots that enable regular step-change enhancements to our processes.

• A proactive team player with a proven ability to collaborate with various levels in an organization. 

What You’ll Do:

• Identify, analyze and prioritize systematic trends across end-user support requests, platform issues, audits and operational processes to uncover root causes and enterprise-level improvement opportunities. 

• Lead root cause analysis for recurring learner, instructor, and administrator issues and drive solutions that address underlying process, technology, content and governance gaps - not just individual incidents.

• Own the design and execution of proactive improvement initiatives that reduce future support volume, operational risk, and platform friction.

• Partner closely with product, technology, data and release teams to translate operational pain points into clear requirements, backlog items and improvement roadmaps. 

• Influence and shape governance standards, operating models, and decision frameworks to support a scalable, enterprise learning ecosystem. 

• Drive continuous improvement of support and governance workflows, including intake processes, escalation paths, documentation and tooling.

• Lead small, cross-functional initiatives or workstreams related to platform stability, learner experiences and operational maturity.

• Support your people leader in prioritization decisions by providing data-driven analysis of impact, effort, risk and business impact.

• Serve as a trusted advisor to stakeholders across learning, product, and technology teams on operational and governance implications of new initiatives.

Basic Qualifications: 

• High School Diploma, GED or equivalent certification

• At least 3 years of experience in end-user support, platform administration, or operational support for enterprise technology systems

• At least 1 year of experience supporting process optimization initiatives that span multiple teams or stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Bachelor’s Degree or military experience

• Experience supporting or operating a large-scale learning management system

• Experience partnering with product, engineering, and data teams to translate operational needs into platform or process enhancements
