As a Senior Product Manager on the Network Growth team at Affirm, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of consumer financial services, commerce, and payments. The Network Growth team is responsible for growing the adoption of the Affirm payments amongst merchants, consumers and partners.

You will work closely with cross-functional teams including Partnerships, Sales, Design, Engineering, Product Analytics, Finance and more to define and build end-to-end solutions that will help enable external partners to offer Affirm. You should be outcomes driven with a bias for action and are undaunted by multiple dependencies both internal and external.
What You’ll Do

- Merchant Empathy: Understand Affirm merchants, their business objectives, and how they turn to Affirm to help achieve those objectives
- Partnership Excellence: Collaborate externally with marquee partners to develop custom, scalable integrations that align with their unique needs while supporting Affirm’s mission and objectives.
- API Development: Demonstrate a strong familiarity with developing external APIs and the ability to build within a partner’s existing ecosystem, enhancing their overall experience.
- Autonomous Innovation: Work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where ambiguity is a constant and exercise autonomy to drive product innovation and make strategic decisions.
- Decision Frameworks: Apply common decision-making frameworks to evaluate opportunities and risks, and draft Decision Memos to communicate and guide these decisions.
- Senior Leader Interaction: Interact effectively with senior leaders both internally and externally, presenting insights and strategies that drive our company’s objectives.
