Staff Product Manager

Our mission to deliver honest financial products that improve lives extends beyond borders. Consumers across the globe need safe, transparent financing. Our retail partners need Affirm to be there for them, wherever that might be. To help achieve this vision, we are expanding our product lines and becoming a global company.

The Purchasing team is focused on building the future of checkout. We're working on international expansion, creating new and transparent ways for consumers to pay, offering rewards and promotions in checkout, and scaling our platform as we expand our ecommerce and instore channels.

As the Senior Product Manager for Checkout Growth, you will own, build, and scale the checkout and upfunnel experiences to as many merchants as possible.

By helping grow the merchant ecosystem, you can drive impactful access to Affirm’s buy-now-pay-later products as well as future innovations.
