Data Engineer 5

Do you love building and pioneering in the technology space? Do you enjoy solving complex business problems in a fast-paced, collaborative, inclusive and iterative delivery environment? At Capital One, you'll be part of a big group of makers, breakers, doers and disruptors who solve real problems and meet real customer needs. We are seeking Data Engineers who are passionate about marrying data with emerging technologies. In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of driving a major transformation across Capital One.

This data engineering team is building an end-to-end travel platform designed to centralize product data and power premium customer experiences. You will lead key aspects of a large-scale, cross-cloud migration—unifying multi-cloud datasets into a central data lake using Python, Spark, and Databricks. By architecting this foundational data backbone, you will directly enable real-time personalized recommendations, tailored travel offers, and intelligent user benefits. It’s an exciting opportunity for an engineer looking to solve complex, distributed system challenges while driving high-impact digital products at enterprise scale.

What You’ll Do:

  • Collaborate with and across Agile teams to design, develop, test, implement, and support technical solutions in full-stack development tools and technologies
  • Influence a team of developers, data analysts and data scientists with deep experience in machine learning, distributed microservices, lakehouse architecture, and full-stack systems
  • Utilize programming languages such as Python and Spark, along with open-source relational and NoSQL databases, and cloud-based data warehousing platforms including Databricks and Snowflake
  • Share your passion for staying on top of trends in data, experimenting with and learning new technologies, participating in internal and external technology communities, and mentoring other members of the data community
  • Collaborate with product managers and software engineers to deliver robust cloud-first data solutions that drive powerful experiences to help millions of Americans achieve financial empowerment
  • Independently design, build and deliver world-class cloud data solutions and applications with little or no support from supervisors or managers
  • Architect and enforce common data engineering design patterns to ensure code quality, maintainability, and reusability across data platforms and pipelines
  • Serve as an ambassador for the data engineering team, communicating technical concepts and data outcomes clearly to both internal and external stakeholders to drive alignment and shared understanding
  • Design and build data pipelines and platforms with a focus on scalability, resilience, and operational efficiency, ensuring robust performance under increasing data volume and business demands
  • Serve as a force-multiplier for the team, balancing deep, hands-on technical contribution and innovation with mentoring and elevating the skills of peers and junior engineers
  • Lead and execute large-scale, transformative data initiatives from end to end, independently driving critical architectural decisions and evaluating platform choices, such as Snowflake versus Databricks, based on technical and business requirements

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree or higher in Computer Science or a related quantitative field (Statistics, Economics, Operations Research, Analytics, Mathematics, Engineering)
  • At least 6 years of experience in application development (Internship experience does not apply)
  • At least 4 years of experience in distributed data
  • At least 4 years of experience with SQL
  • At least 4 years of experience programming with at least one of the following languages: Python, Java, or Scala
  • At least 4 years of experience designing and developing data pipelines
  • At least 2 years of experience in data modeling and designing end-to-end data solutions using both relational and non-relational database systems

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Master’s Degree in Computer Science or a related field
  • 8+ years of experience in data engineering
  • 4+ years of data modeling experience
  • 9+ years of experience in application development with demonstrated proficiency in Python, SQL, Scala, or Java
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience designing, deploying and operating data workloads in at least one public cloud environment (AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud)
  • 5+ years of experience building or supporting distributed data or compute workloads using tools such as EMR, Spark, Glue, or Databricks
  • 5+ years of experience designing, implementing, and operating real-time or streaming data pipelines
  • 3+ years of experience working on data observability (e.g., Monte Carlo, Splunk) or data orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Dagster)
  • 5+ years of experience working with unstructured or semistructured data using NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB)
  • 5+ years of experience designing and supporting data warehousing solutions (e.g., Snowflake, Redshift)
  • 3+ years of experience working in an Agile development environment
  • 3+ years of experience developing user-centric reusable data products

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
