Обязанности
- 01Revenue & Gross Margin Forecasting — Build product-level forecasts that accurately predict Plaid’s topline performance in the near and mid-term. Construct long-term forecasts that balance bottoms-up and top-down methodologies to help size Plaid’s commercial opportunity 3–5 years into the future.
- 02Resource Allocation — Partner with the CPO and CTO on capital deployment, including headcount planning by key function and team, capacity modeling that maps directly to the product roadmap, the EPD AI tooling approach, and scenario planning. Identify opportunities to optimize COGS and opex in ways that increase velocity, while remaining disciplined on costs.
- 03Performance Visibility & Tracking — Own EPD performance tracking and reporting. Ensure we focus on the highest-signal metrics, including service delivery to customers. Partner with Data teams on data hygiene, timeliness, and the granularity needed to inform decisions across EPD and the broader business.
- 04Cross-functional Partnership — Build trusted relationships across the company, acting as the connective tissue between EPD and the rest of the business — and especially between Product and GTM, where you’ll provide counsel and analytical support on cross-functional priorities.
- 05Board Reporting — Own the Product narrative for quarterly Board meetings: business performance, strategic progress against near- and long-term goals, and a forward-looking perspective — synthesized into compelling, executive-ready materials.
- 06Team Building — Define the future-state of the EPD Finance team and execute against it. Hire, develop, and lead a high-performing team capable of operating at the pace and complexity of a scaled growth-stage business. Be a strong collaborator with peer Finance leads, and set the example for how your team partners with the rest of the Finance org.

- 0115+ years in Finance, with a background spanning management consulting, investment banking, private equity, or strategic finance at a high-growth technology company
- 02Deep fluency in product P&L finance — you can move fluidly between product-level revenue forecasting, gross margin analysis, headcount and capacity planning, and software economics without losing the narrative thread
- 03Exceptional analytical rigor paired with sharp business judgment — you know when the model needs more work and when it’s time to make a call
- 04A genuine builder with a player-coach approach: you’re energized by defining what “great” looks like and building the team and systems to get there
- 05Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing finance teams
- 06Executive presence and exceptional communication skills — written, verbal, and visual — with the ability to influence senior stakeholders, technical leaders, and Board-level audiences
- 07Prior experience partnering with engineering and product leaders is a strong plus; fintech or financial services experience is a plus, but not required
