At Affirm, we exist for the moments that matter—giving people a clear, predictable way to pay over time, with no hidden fees, no surprises, and no tradeoffs on what matters most.
The Risk & Analytics (R&A) team makes crucial decisions that direct Affirm’s business strategy. We partner with Machine Learning, Product, Engineering, Capital Markets, and Commercial teams to grow Affirm responsibly by optimizing approval, conversion, losses, and profitability.
Operating across the entire customer and merchant lifecycle, we tackle a diverse array of challenges, from optimizing checkout conversion and mitigating fraud risk to building scalable data foundations and enabling international growth. We analyze performance not just to report on it, but to determine where to invest resources for maximum impact through building tools, scalable data infrastructure, and analytical frameworks.
We improve the analytics experience across Affirm by streamlining workflows and fostering a culture of learning and documentation. By taking ownership of the entire analytical lifecycle, from initial question to final business decision, we turn complex data and systems into clear, actionable signals that ensure Affirm grows efficiently and intelligently.
We are hiring multiple Senior Analyst roles across Affirm's Risk & Analytics organization through this single job posting. Rather than interviewing for one specific team, candidates will go through a shared interview process designed to assess the core skills we look for across R&A.
If selected, we will work with you to determine the best team match based on your interests, experience, strengths, and current business needs. You will have the opportunity to learn more about our teams and share your preferences as you move through the process.
Potential team placements include:
As a Senior Analyst in Affirm's Risk & Analytics organization, you will join one of several analytical teams working across the customer and merchant lifecycle. While the specific problems you tackle will depend on your eventual team placement, all Senior Analyst roles share a common foundation: owning complex analytical problems end to end, translating data into business strategy, and influencing decisions across technical and non-technical teams.
You will operate with autonomy to own the entire analytical lifecycle, from initial question to final business decision. You bring exceptional analytical rigor, deep domain expertise, and the ability to translate complex regulatory, economic, and machine learning insights into actionable business strategies. You thrive in ambiguity, balance growth with resilience, and are comfortable operating at both strategic and execution levels to influence stakeholders across the organization.
