Full Job Description
Product Designer - Principal Associate

The Servicing and Support Experiences (SSX) design team is currently seeking a Product Designer to join our team. We enable the people and tools that support customers in their lowest moments and turn them into their highest moments. We design for both associate-guided and digital interactions to bring clarity, simplicity, and convenience to customers wherever they are in their journey, and resolve their needs across any channel. This Product Designer will play a prominent role in developing experience concepts that realize a human-centric vision for the retail bank of the future. You will collaborate with others to design experiences for customers and internal users across channels and platforms in multiple foundational domains (e.g., Money Movement, Customer Management, Account Servicing) from initial pilot to full operational scale.

The Experience Design team at Capital One is at the forefront of enriching our customers' digital and physical experiences. We champion a thriving environment of collaboration, authenticity and healthy critique, in which we honor diversity of thought, create a culture of belonging, and elevate one another. We are passionate about human centered design methods, advocating for user needs, and delivering world-class products that redefine our customers' day-to-day financial activities and amplify our associates' ability to support them. If you're an innovator and storyteller who embraces an environment where you can experiment, learn, and change banking for good, we would love to hear from you.

    • Supporting effective storytelling and presentation of visual concepts to various stakeholders

    • Creating high fidelity design assets for acceptance, development, and delivery to market in partnership with technology colleagues

    • Problem solving systemically for extensibility and re-use
