Working with us
How do we do things at Capital One? We listen — to our people, and to our customers. We change with the times, currently working remotely with plans to move to a flexible hybrid model (remote and/or in-office) in the future. A flexible hybrid working model is one that creates the opportunity to match the work that we do to the environment that best supports that work. We recognize that everyone has a unique working pattern so we’re open to discussing flexible working arrangements that will best accommodate you.
As a Data Analyst co-op, you will work with cross-functional teams to identify, design and develop tools that address challenges in our business processes. As a creative problem-solver, you will be challenged to consider multiple options and select the optimal solution to meet the needs of your customers. You will own the recommendation and resolution to an existing business problem and will be involved end to end, from problem identification to solution deployment.
Types of projects our Data Analysts deliver:
Build, automate, and maintain critical business reporting using cutting edge tools
Design and develop data solutions that provide seamless execution of business intent
Consult on and influence design of critical business processes and controls
Create, enhance and maintain well managed critical data processes that meet regulatory requirements
Enable delivery of business ideas from concept to implementation
Identify data process improvements and deliver on them
Perform ad hoc analytics on large/diverse datasets
The ideal candidate will be:
Curious: You ask why, you explore, and you're not afraid to blurt out your disruptive idea. You know SQL and are constantly exploring new open source tools, and hitting up stack overflow on a regular basis.
A Wrangler: You can quickly learn to programmatically extract data from a database or an API, bring it through a transformation or two, and convert into a human-readable form (Matplotlib, d3 visualization, Tableau, etc.).
Creative: Big, undefined problems and petabytes of data don't frighten you. You're keen to work with abstract data, and you love discovering new narratives in unmined territories.
Preferred qualifications:
Pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or another quantitative discipline with a strong programming background graduating in 2025 or earlier
Familiarity with SQL. Python experience would also be an asset.
Ability to shape and develop requirements into practical solutions
Ability to clearly explain technical terms to a non-technical audience
Experience in a Unix/Linux environment
