Job description

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.

The Home and Search Experience team owns the end-to-end search and discovery experience in the Affirm app, spanning user experience, application-level APIs, and the underlying search and ranking systems. Our goal is to define and deliver meaningful initiatives that improve how users discover merchants, brands, and categories, and understand and engage with their available credit.

We work closely with product, data science, design, and partner engineering teams to identify opportunities, ship new features, and continuously raise the quality, reliability, and scalability of these experiences in support of Affirm’s growth.

We are looking for a highly motivated Software Engineer to help define and deliver critical experiences at the heart of Affirm’s marketplace. In this role, you will own high-leverage technical and product initiatives whose outcomes directly influence user discovery, credit engagement, and the growth of Affirm’s merchant network.

We are only just getting started! 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!
