Plaid’s network covers 11,000 financial institutions across the US, Canada, UK and Europe.

We’re looking for a Full-Stack Engineer with experience building internal and external self-serve products to help us ensure that the next generations of fintechs are built on Plaid. We are looking for engineers who understand what it means to discover and build scalable products that help our customers solve their business use cases.
