The posting
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, Seattle, Washington D.C., Raleigh, London, and Amsterdam.
In this role, you will lead Plaid’s relationships with a focused group of leading mortgage lenders, servicers, and ecosystem partners, bringing the full breadth of Plaid’s offerings to the way they originate, verify, and underwrite loans. You will drive new business and expansion by running a disciplined, consultative sales process, uncovering high-value use cases, and building credibility with senior decision-makers, partnering with Product, Account Management, and other Go-To-Market colleagues to show customers measurable results. This role is ideal for a self-motivated seller who takes initiative, plans several moves ahead, and brings a collaborative, customer-first mindset to fellow sellers and cross-functional partners.

- Articulate Plaid’s business value and technology advantage in the mortgage vertical to lenders, servicers, and ecosystem partners
- Win as a team in partnership with your SDR, account manager, technical account manager, implementation manager, product organization, and other members of your account pod
Qualifications:
- 7+ years of quota-carrying experience in a new-revenue role, with a consistent record of meeting or exceeding quota and a strong track record of closing enterprise-level deals, including 5+ years focused on large enterprise customers
- Ability to sell a technical solution to a business buyer, developing and delivering the value story at the executive level (experience selling APIs or other developer-oriented products a major plus)
- Superior communication skills, including the ability to run compelling discovery conversations, present business cases to executive audiences, and keep internal partners aligned across long, multi-stakeholder deals
- Strong prospecting, qualifying, and negotiating skills, with a consultative sales approach and a product-centric mindset
- Working knowledge of the mortgage ecosystem and existing relationships with lenders, servicers, or mortgage technology providers
- Experience selling a broad, multi-product portfolio and working effectively with specialist or overlay resources
- Enthusiasm for working in a high-growth environment and helping build processes and tools as needed
