About the Team:
The Encore Processing Product Management organization drives the strategy and execution of Capital One’s Card Processing ecosystem. Our team is at the epicenter of Card Growth—delivering critical capabilities for major card network integrations (e.g., Discover), driving legacy system updates (e.g., Bridges), and building an ultra-resilient, highly available processing engine.
As the Senior Associate PM you are the engine behind our primary product delivery. You are a flexible, highly detail-oriented product manager who spans horizontal work across backend architecture and business operations. Whether you are validating payment logic for major portfolio conversions, analyzing edge cases for disaster recovery resiliency, or untangling complex cardholder data, your work directly protects customer experiences and directly enables business value for Card.
Clearing Evolution: Lead product discovery, requirements gathering, and data validation to support strategic growth initiatives (including Discover integration).
Legacy Evolution: Partner with engineering to map legacy processes to target-state architectures, supporting the rollout of prioritized bridge solutions. Review update requirements for efficacy.
Transaction Management: Build strategy, roadmaps, grounded in a deep understanding of business and customer needs.
Well-Managed Analysis: Perform root-cause analyses on recurring production errors. Identify systemic fixes to measurably eliminate reliance on manual Catch & Fix interventions.
Disaster Recovery (DR) Readiness: Help define, test, and validate "Definition of Ready" criteria for critical features—ensuring seamless failover to the DR site for high-risk events and midnight payment processing.
Intake & Feature Triaging: Manage incoming feature requests and operational enhancements, turning customer/business friction points into crisp, prioritized user stories.
Full-Stack/Horizontal Flexibility: Operate comfortably across both backend logic (money movement, posting rules, fee engine logic) and downstream customer touchpoints (mobile app and web display logic).
Strategic Alignment: Support leadership with data-driven insights and progress metrics that feed quarterly VP+ strategy and roadmap updates.
