Manager, Data Scientist, Anti-Money Laundering Modeling and Advanced Data Insights
Data is at the center of everything we do. As a startup, we disrupted the credit card industry by individually personalizing every credit card offer using statistical modeling and the relational database, cutting edge technology in 1988! Fast-forward a few years, and this little innovation and our passion for data has skyrocketed us to a Fortune 200 company and a leader in the world of data-driven decision-making.
As a Data Scientist 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
The Anti-Money Laundering Modeling and Advanced Data Insights team is on a journey to modernize the way Capital One identifies potential money laundering, terrorist financing, and human trafficking through the use of advanced analytic techniques, statistics, and machine learning models. We develop ETL data pipelines, predictive models, monitoring dashboards, and reporting using tools such as AWS, Snowflake, Python, R, and Spark and we aim to expand our detection capabilities using sophisticated Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms and graph analytics. As the model developer for advancing transaction monitoring with machine learning, our team is responsible for end to end development, deployment, and monitoring of production models.
Role Description
In this role, you will:
Partner with a cross-functional team of data scientists, software engineers, and product managers to deliver a product customers love
Leverage a broad stack of technologies — Python, Conda, AWS, H2O, Spark, and more — to reveal the insights hidden within huge volumes of numeric and textual data
Build statistical, machine learning, and NLP models through all phases of development, from design through training, evaluation, validation, and implementation
Use graph databases and algorithms to identify network patterns, detect activities and/or communities of interest, and generate graph features for use in machine learning models
Flex your interpersonal skills to translate the complexity of your work into tangible business goals
The Ideal Candidate is:
Innovative. You continually research and evaluate emerging technologies. You stay current on published state-of-the-art methods, technologies, and applications and seek out opportunities to apply them.
