Responsibilities

Partner with a cross-functional team of engineers, research scientists, technical program managers, and product managers to deliver AI-powered products.
Design, develop, test, deploy, and support AI software components including foundation model training, large language model inference, agents and multi-agent workflows, similarity search, guardrails, model evaluation, experimentation, governance, and observability.
Leverage a broad stack of Open Source and SaaS AI technologies such as AWS Ultraclusters, Huggingface, VectorDBs, PyTorch, and more.
Invent and introduce state-of-the-art foundation model optimization techniques to improve the performance — scalability, cost, latency, throughput — of large scale production AI systems.
Contribute to the technical vision and the long term roadmap of foundational AI systems at Capital One.
Set the technical direction for enterprise-wide AI architecture - unifying tooling, observability, and deployment standards across teams.
Own the design and integration of model routing, caching, and orchestration systems that support hybrid and multi-model workloads.
Champion responsible AI principles across all system design, embedding transparency, reproducibility, and fairness-by-design.
Drive internal education, mentorship, and dissemination of best practices through architecture councils and AI guilds.
