Product Communications Manager

We believe that the way people interact with their finances will drastically improve in the next few years. We’re dedicated to empowering this transformation by building the tools and experiences that thousands of developers use to create their own products. Plaid powers the tools millions of people rely on to live a healthier financial life. We work with thousands of companies like Venmo, SoFi, several of the Fortune 500, and many of the largest banks to make it easy for people to connect their financial accounts to the apps and services they want to use. Plaid’s network covers 12,000 financial institutions across the US, Canada, UK and Europe. Founded in 2013, the company is headquartered in San Francisco with offices in New York, Seattle, Washington D.C., Raleigh, London, and Amsterdam. Plaid's Communications team tells the story of how our products work and why they matter. This role focuses specifically on fraud and risk: you'll build the media relationships, write the content, and shape the messaging that establishes Plaid as a leader in modern fraud prevention. You've done this kind of work before in fintech, security, or a similar technical space, and you know how to turn a complex product into a story a reporter or customer actually wants to read. You build real relationships with press and industry contacts rather than relying on an agency to do it for you. You'll report to our Product Communications Lead. You'll lead communications for Plaid's fraud and risk products. That means writing and pitching stories about our fraud solutions, not just when we launch something new, but as an ongoing part of how we talk to customers, press, and the industry. You're good at explaining complicated product work in plain terms, and you can run your own editorial calendar: deciding what to write, when to publish it, and where it should go. This role goes beyond traditional PR — you'll work closely with product and marketing to shape how we talk about our fraud and risk w
