As the Manager of SRE Risk Advisory and Oversight at Capital One, you will join a critical team responsible for ensuring robust technical practices across cloud implementations and resilience architectures. Your role involves conducting deep-dive risk analyses on cloud infrastructures, software delivery lifecycles, and observability frameworks to identify systemic risks and develop strategic mitigation strategies. You will work closely with senior leadership to translate complex technical data into actionable insights and executive-level narratives. Key responsibilities include evaluating emerging technologies like Generative AI and containerization, assessing SRE pillars such as SLIs/SLOs and CI/CD pipelines, and collaborating across teams to recommend effective risk controls. The ideal candidate has a strong background in software engineering or SRE with experience in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and open-source programming languages. Additional skills in enterprise monitoring tools, Kubernetes, and technical communication are highly valued, especially for those familiar with the financial services industry.

  • Conduct independent technical risk assessments of cloud infrastructure and software delivery lifecycles.
  • Evaluate first-line engineering practices against enterprise risk appetites to ensure robust strategies.
  • Translate complex technical data into structured risk reports and executive storytelling materials.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert on SRE pillars, assessing SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, and release pipelines.
  • Actively evaluate the integration of emerging technologies like Gen AI/ML within software delivery.
  • Formulate strategic mitigation recommendations for emerging cloud technology risks.

What we're looking for

  • At least 4 years of experience in Technology Management, Software Engineering, SRE, or Cyber Risk Management.
  • Minimum 2 years of hands-on experience with cloud implementations (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Solid understanding and experience with open-source programming languages.
  • Professional cloud certification preferred (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect).
  • Experience analyzing enterprise monitoring, observability, and alerting toolsets.
  • Demonstrated ability to draft technical assessments for senior leadership.
  • Strong communication skills to influence and drive alignment across stakeholder groups.
