Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest. Our Financial Platform sits at the heart of every loan Affirm makes and every dollar we move.

• Serve as the executive-level subject matter expert on loan lifecycle mechanics, payment rails, settlement flows, and institutional transfers.
• Drive cross-functional alignment with Engineering, Accounting, Treasury, Capital Markets, Legal, Compliance, and Client Success teams.
• Enable platform scalability and international expansion by architecting platform strategies that simplify domain boundaries and standardize loan behaviors.
• Define and measure platform health metrics including settlement success rates, reconciliation coverage, exception volumes, and time-to-resolution.
• Influence up and across the organization, presenting strategy and priorities to senior leadership.

• 10+ years of product management experience, with at least 3–5 years managing and developing PM teams including people managers.
• Deep experience in loans or lending systems, understanding loan lifecycle mechanics, platform architecture for loan servicing, and compliance requirements.
• Meaningful experience in money movement, payments infrastructure, or financial operations, fluent in payment rails, settlement flows, and cross-border transfers.
• Experience in fintech, financial services, or banking; familiarity with BNPL, platform products, or backend infrastructure is strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to set and execute long-term platform strategy in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
• Strong technical fluency, comfortable diving into data models and API discussions with engineers.
• Proficiency with AI-assisted tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor) to accelerate work.
• Track record of building and scaling distributed, high-performing PM teams across multiple domains.
• Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent practical experience.
