The Data Platform team builds and operates the capabilities that enable Plaid to make effective data-driven decisions. We know that the pace we can arrive at those decisions is directly related to the pace we can deliver a better product to our customers. To do so we target our efforts in several key areas:

-Quality and reliability of key business critical datasets
-Ability to build and iterate on machine learning models
-Ability to capture analytics efficiently and securely
-Systems and infrastructure supporting data at scale

In each of these areas, it is our responsibility to understand the related needs of the business and ultimately deliver the capabilities that will help us unlock the most value for our customers.

As our Data Platform PM you will help us identify, maintain, and incrementally deliver value on an evolving set of priorities in the Data Platform space. Doing so will require using all of the tools in your PM toolbox including understanding the needs of our customers, collecting and reporting on data, and developing the product artifacts (e.g., strategy, roadmaps, user stories, briefs) that keep the team engaged, aligned, and excited. Day to day you might find yourself conducting user interviews, participating in a backlog refinement session, writing a product brief, poking through product usage metrics, researching the data technology landscape, or updating our internal product documentation. Outside of the Data Platform space specifically, you'll help us level-up PM best practices at Plaid to make sure they include your hard-won discoveries of what works and what doesn't!
