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, Washington D.C., London and Amsterdam. About the Team: - The Security Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) team is part of Plaid’s security organization, focused on enabling the business by proactively managing information security risks and maintaining effective controls. - Our mission is to reduce the likelihood and impact of security risks while operating a robust assurance program that builds trust with our customers, consumers, and data partners. - We partner closely across the company to ensure Plaid’s platform remains secure, resilient, and aligned with industry and regulatory expectations. - The Security Contracts workstream is a core part of our Security Assurance and Trust Enablement program — ensuring Plaid's contractual security obligations with customers and data partners are defensible, consistent, and never a bottleneck to deal velocity, all while building trust. About the Role - You will own Plaid’s Security Contracts workstream end-to-end—the DRI for how security contract reviews get done, how fast they move, and how the program improves over time. - You will review security provisions in customer MSAs, DPAs, and security addenda, identify unacceptable clauses, and provide Legal and GTM with the actionable security feedback they need to move deals forward. - You will build the playbooks, processes, and program infrastructure that make the Security Contracts workstream scalable — so the team moves faster on every deal that follows. - You will use pattern analysis and data to proactively reduce deal friction over time, own program metrics and reporting, and operate as an AI power user to maximize throughput. - You will also support broader security trust enablement activities — responding to customer security questionnaires and joining external audit calls with customers and data partners — with the same rigor and responsiveness you bring to the contracts workstream. Responsibilities - Lead Security Contract Reviews: Review security provisions in customer MSAs, DPAs, security addenda, and security exhibits — identifying unacceptable clauses, forming a clear security position, and providing Legal with actionable feedback they can take directly into negotiations. Your positions will give Legal and GTM a consistent, defensible security voice at the table and directly reduce deal cycle times. - Shape the Security Contract Review Strategy: Design and own the end-to-end program infrastructure — intake process, tiered SLAs, security positions runbooks, and handoff protocols with Legal and GTM. Your work will transform security reviews from an ad-hoc bottleneck into a predictable, scalable function that the business can rely on. - Drive Strategic Intelligence: Track security contract asks across deals, identify recurring patterns, and determine whether they reflect a gap in Plaid's program or a non-standard customer request. For identified gaps, assess feasibility and propose recommendations to leadership. For existing capabilities, codify them in the standard security addendum to eliminate future negotiation cycles. - Accelerate Deals: Join customer and data partner calls as Plaid's security subject matter expert — comfortable n
