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.
As a Business Systems Architect, you’ll lead the design of scalable enterprise solutions connecting Salesforce, Snowflake, and Workato — powering automation and data-driven decision-making across our Revenue, Finance, and Product organizations. You’ll shape the technical vision, establish architectural standards, and partner cross-functionally to build an ecosystem that scales with Affirm’s growth.
We are searching for an experienced Architect to help our growing Business Systems organization. Additionally, you will need to be fairly comfortable with ambiguity and possess tools to work through challenging deadlines, craft strategy, and drive execution. This role sits at the intersection of business strategy and technical design. You will partner with cross-functional stakeholders in Engineering, Product, Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Legal, and Finance to deliver scalable, secure, and automated solutions that power data-driven decision-making and operational excellence.
We are experiencing explosive growth with millions of customers across thousands of merchants in-store and online, and your technical leadership will be a key enabler of that growth. Come join us as we build a beloved, lasting financial services brand predicated on honesty and trust. It’s going to be an amazing ride!
