Service Designer, Consumer Card and Bank Experience Design

The Consumer Card and Bank Experience Design team at Capital One is at the forefront of enriching our customers' digital and physical experiences. We're passionate about creating seamless customer experiences across credit card products, bank accounts, and all other Capital One touchpoints. 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. If you're an innovator and storyteller who embraces an environment where you can experiment, learn, and change banking for good, we'd love to hear from you.

This associate will be the first design hire for an internal startup project within our Consumer Card business, exploring new ideas at the intersection of finance and decision-making. A startup within a premier financial services institution, our team is able to leverage an extensive bench of talent and resources to pilot new products while moving at breakneck speed. In addition to testing original ideas, our team explores possibilities to commercialize existing internal products. Our first product marries data, simulation, and talent development - this is a high visibility product with championship from senior executives from across the enterprise.

About the Role:

We're seeking a Service Designer to join the Consumer Card & Bank Experience Design team. If you are someone with in-depth Service Design knowledge and experience within Systems Design, Business Design, Industrial Design, Graphic Design or Interaction Design, this could be the role for you. We seek someone who is customer-centered in their approach, and who maintains empathy for customers at every level. The ideal candidate isn't afraid of working with large amounts of data and complex models, and loves finding unique ways to visualize information. You love diving in on the technical side of things, asking your partners in tech and data science about the nitty gritty of their technologies.

You will participate in discovery and product definition from the earliest stages, conducting user interviews and mapping the customer experience from scratch. We aim to stay lean and move fast, regularly putting prototypes in front of users for feedback. You will prototype and iterate based on learnings, and constantly advocate for the user.

You have proven experience in leading a project, creating the approach, managing scope and ambiguous project boundaries. You understand what it takes to build something truly desirable for customers, viable for the business and operationally and technically feasible.

In this role, you'll be engaging regularly with various tech, data science, product teams and other stakeholders across the organization. So, communication and documentation of your work are key here. You are a team player who thrives in a collaborative environment. You're a good, honest partner who doesn't hold back in seeking input and insights from others while offering constructive criticism and sharing your knowledge openly. You're an innovator and storyteller who embraces an environment where you can experiment, learn, and change banking for good. 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.

Collaboration & Connection

+ Collaborating with technology, product, and business teams to uncover customer and business needs - then translating them into intuitive and engaging digital experiences

+ Participating in translating complex ideas into understandable concepts that evolve and enhance the product experience

+ Championing prioritization of design-centered product enhancements grounded in research and analysis, such as design thinking and service design methodologies

+ Connecting with design community peers by learning, sharing, and teaching

+ Designing within existing - and creating new - standards to contribute to our internal design system, best practices, and guidelines

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

+ Partnering in creating high fidelity design assets for acceptance, development, and delivery to market in partnership with technology colleagues
