Job description

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.

We turn Plaid's product expertise, proprietary data, customer impact, and perspective on intelligent finance into stories that build understanding, trust, and demand. We sit within Brand Marketing, owning resource content, customer storytelling, and owned editorial franchises, and we're increasingly bringing that storytelling to life through video and audio.

You'll join as our first dedicated video and audio producer, reporting to our incoming Content Lead. You'll jump in immediately to produce Intelligent Finance, our flagship podcast and video series hosted by CEO and co-founder Zach Perret, already in production, so you'll pick up the reins without a long ramp-up period. You'll own production end-to-end, partner closely with our Content Design team to shape stories, and work directly with senior leaders to translate our product, data, and industry perspective into content people actually want to watch and listen to.
