Access is Plaid’s distribution engine. The role is critical to making self-service tools for customers and institutions to detect and act on quality issues. This will increase the quality of connections between customers and institutions for their end users. Ultimately, customers should get the best integration experiences while reducing support burden and improving reliability.
We are responsible for delivering trusted, transparent integration experiences and building tools that reduce support burden while improving the reliability of Plaid’s connections with financial institutions. This includes developing and maintaining core surfaces such as institution registration, developer dashboards, disconnect webhooks, and support APIs. Our mandate extends beyond building infrastructure—we empower external partners and customers to manage their integration experience more effectively.
We manage both operational workflows and developer-facing products, while also shaping customer-facing solutions. By building technologies that automatically detect and respond to changes at financial institutions, we ensure users are seamlessly transitioned to more secure and reliable APIs. In parallel, we design scalable self-service and diagnostic tools that reduce reliance on manual support. Ultimately, we safeguard connection quality, strengthen reliability, and ensure customers consistently engage with their institutions through secure, efficient pathways.
