Staff Software Engineer

Our Capital One Software Studio.

Since 2014, Capital One Canada’s software studio has grown from a team of 10 to a team of over 270. We’re passionate about what we do, and we’re always on the lookout for people who want to make a difference in the world of credit through technology. We’re obsessed with doing the right thing, and we achieve that by finding innovative ways to better serve our customers.

This is a senior technical position (manager equivalent) that does not have direct reports. We require advanced hands-on development, technical design, and architecture.

Working with us.

How do we do things at Capital One Canada? We listen — to our people, and to our customers. We change with the times and have adopted a flexible hybrid model. Associates working in the hybrid model are expected to come into the office 3 days a week across Tuesdays and Thursdays, reserving Mondays and Fridays as company-wide virtual days. As was true before the pandemic, expectations of being in the office will be balanced with personal life flexibility.

At Capital One we’re committed to diversity, inclusion and belonging. We strive to build a culture where diverse perspectives are valued, innovative ideas are encouraged and inclusive behaviors are embedded in everything we do to positively impact associates.

We’re focused on helping associates live well—physically, financially and emotionally. When you join us, we support you and those who are most important to you, offering full coverage for spouses, domestic partners, and dependents. We’ve designed our benefits program to be flexible, comprehensive and consistent across our organization. From health and fitness center discounts to training and professional development programs—and much more—you’ll discover that Capital One is committed to helping you live your best life.

A day in the life of a Capital One Staff Engineer

You’ll work alongside other Software Engineers on innovative projects. You’ll have the opportunity to learn, design and build software products from the ground up. You’ll share knowledge through conducting technical workshops/office hours, and participating in hackathons or community of practices or staff engineering forums. You’ll explain complex technical challenges and solutions to diverse stakeholders with tech and non-technical backgrounds.

Here are a few of the ways we’re helping people take control of their credit:

  • Helping customers view and monitor their credit scores with Credit Keeper
  • Enabling customers to view and edit their Personal Information directly in the Mobile App
  • Providing customers 100% certainty which credit cards they’ll be approved for before they apply, by using Quick Check

We’re all-in on the cloud and we’re leaders in the adoption of open source, RESTful APIs, microservices, and containers. We build our own products and release them with a speed and agility that allows us to get new customer experiences to market quickly. And, as a founder-led company, we’re inspired to make, break, do, and do good.
