Jacob Wilson
Hey, I’m Jacob! I’m an Android developer at Capital One, based in London, UK.
Throughout my time here on the graduate programme I also spent time as a web developer and working on backend services.
As well as coding, throughout my time here I’ve played a major part in organising our summer internship and I now lead the team working towards the 2025 programme.
Outside of work you’ll find me engrossed in a book or watching the F1, but I also love to travel and take photos!
