Fraud remains one of the hardest problems in financial services—and one of the biggest opportunities for Plaid. Our Fraud team is building the trusted identity backbone for the financial ecosystem, helping customers onboard good users with confidence while keeping bad actors out. As the Product Manager for Identity Verification (IDV) and Monitor (AML), you’ll own the foundation of Plaid’s fraud platform. IDV enables fast, accurate identity verification at onboarding, while Monitor provides continuous AML screening and transaction monitoring. Together, they power Protect and Layer–Plaid’s next-generation fraud products. The result is a unified platform that brings KYC, AML, and fraud prevention together at scale. In this role, you will take end-to-end ownership of IDV and Monitor–setting direction, driving execution, and aligning teams around measurable outcomes. You’ll blend technical, data and design perspectives to move from concept to production quickly and deliver systems that are accurate, reliable and built for scale. You’ll partner directly with Plaid’s fraud founders and an experienced engineering team to raise the standard for fraud prevention.
