Capital One is one of the fastest growing organizations in the world today. The growth of the business is being accelerated by leveraging innovative and emerging technologies. We are serious about technology, we dream big, and we execute: Capital One moved our entire enterprise to the public cloud over the course of five years, fully exiting our data centers. Just as we prioritize driving innovation through technology, we equally prioritize cybersecurity and managing technology risk. Technology Risk Management (TRM) is a small organization that packs a big punch. The roughly ninety professionals in TRM are trusted expert advisers who shape decisions, challenge activities to ensure they meet our standards, and generally oversee technology and information security risk across the business and the central technology organization. TRM is a second line organization, which means it is independent and reports up through the Chief Risk Officer.

TRM plays a critical role in ensuring that the company's risk-taking entities are aware of the risks inherent in their activities and decisions, the impact of their actions on the company at an enterprise level, and opportunities to reduce, mitigate or avoid the risks altogether. Associates within TRM are highly-skilled information security, cybersecurity, site reliability engineering, technology, and risk management professionals who have a wealth of experience and a demonstrated ability to provide value added recommendations and deliver high-impact results in their areas of expertise.

This position - Technology Risk Management (TRM) Tech Advisor, Senior Manager- will play a high impact role in enhancing the organization's cybersecurity and technology risk posture by leading the identification and assessment of potential risks, engaging in challenge activities, and leading strategic advisory and oversight work in both project-based and mission critical activities. This includes identifying potential cybersecurity and technology risks associated with new and evolving business processes, assessing potential impacts to those processes, and engaging with other leaders to counsel them on the risk treatment options based on Line of Business and enterprise risk appetite. In addition to coordinating risk assessment activities, this role will be expected to identify opportunities to make reporting more actionable and introduce more forward-looking measures of risk. There will be frequent opportunities to represent TRM's Line of Business risk view in many different risk forums and committees.
