Distinguished Engineer

As a Distinguished Engineer at Capital One, you will be a part of a community of technical experts working to define the future of banking in the cloud. You will work alongside our talented team of developers, machine learning experts, product managers and people leaders. Our Distinguished Engineers are leading experts in their domains, helping devise practical and reusable solutions to complex problems. You will drive innovation at multiple levels, helping optimize business outcomes while driving towards strong technology solutions. At Capital One, we believe diversity of thought strengthens our ability to influence, collaborate and provide the most innovative solutions across organizational boundaries. You will promote a culture of engineering excellence, and strike the right balance between lending expertise and providing an inclusive environment where the ideas of others can be heard and championed. You will lead the way in creating next-generation talent for Capital One Tech, mentoring internal talent and actively recruiting to keep building our community. Distinguished Engineers are expected to lead through technical contribution. You will operate as a trusted advisor for our key technologies, platforms and capability domains, creating clear and concise communications, code samples, blog posts and other material to share knowledge both inside and outside the organization. You will specialize in a particular subject area, but your input and impact will be sought and expected throughout the organization. We are looking for a visionary technologist to anchor our Foundation Model (FM) Hosting team. As generative AI becomes the core engine of our business, the frontier of our success lies in how efficiently, reliably, and rapidly we can serve massive large language models at scale. In this Distinguished-level role, you won't just be using existing tools; you will be pushing the absolute limits of LLM inference physics. You will own the technical strategy for our FM serving stack, bridging the critical gap between our Science teams and our production infrastructure. If you thrive on shaving off milliseconds of latency, writing custom CUDA kernels to bypass hardware bottlenecks, and architecting distributed systems that scale effortlessly on Kubernetes, we want you to lead our next generation of AI infrastructure. If you are ready to provide thought leadership and build engineering excellence across Capital One's engineering teams, come join us in our mission to change banking for good.
