We are currently seeking a UX Content Strategist to join our team. We are passionate about crafting effective customer conversations and shaping the direction of our user experience by giving content a voice in the design process.

The Design team at Capital One is at the forefront of enriching our customers' digital and physical experiences. 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, a storyteller, and are curious how users interpret your words, and if you embrace an environment where you can experiment, learn, and change banking for good, we would love to hear from you.

• Experience identifying and interpreting writing styles and defining your audience
  
• Strong presentation presence and storytelling skills
  
• Deep understanding of visual design conventions

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

• Advocating for the customer through human-centered design methods, ensuring our products speak their language
  
• Championing design-centered approaches grounded in product research and analysis, and always representing the perspective of content strategy
  

• Embracing and advocating for an experience mindset - this is as important to the work as the results
  

Discovery & Delivery

• Working with the Research team to understand customer needs and define what information is needed throughout the user experience through card sorting and tree testing, as well as usability and empathy studies
  
• Developing a language style guide to act as a "source of truth" for the Design and Research teams
  
• Creating new and revising existing content experiences, and guiding visual designers in the process
  
• Ensuring all content in our business portfolios is clear, easy to understand, and written in natural, user-centered language in a consistent voice and tone
  
• Partnering with Product + Design to co-own and drive content that meets Capital One's Editorial + Brand Standards
  
• Collaborating with other writers, UX designers, and visual designers to contribute to our internal design system, content strategy community of practice, best practices, and guidelines
  
• Working with several different work-stream leads to ensure a consistent, cohesive content strategy throughout the entire platform experience
  

Basic Qualifications

• Experience with content creation for cross-channel experiences
  
• Familiarity with working in an established design system
  
• Master's degree in English, Technical Writing, Communications, or another humanities-based field
