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. Zero To One (ZT1) is Affirm’s 0 -> 1 innovation lab, focused on turning bold ideas into validated new businesses. Operating outside the standard Product and Engineering structure, ZT1 is built for speed, autonomy, and decisive execution. We run fast, hypothesis-driven experiments with a clear goal: prototype quickly, generate real signals, and drive explicit “kill or scale” decisions on high-impact opportunities, with AI as a core enabler across the stack.
As an engineer on ZT1, you will work in a small, highly empowered, AI-native team alongside product managers and cross-functional partners, with direct exposure to senior leadership. You will not just build systems, you will help shape experiments, define technical approaches, and influence product direction. Work happens in rapid sprint cycles, where ideas quickly move from concept to AI-powered prototypes and real-world testing. Engineers on this team are expected to be comfortable leveraging AI-first tools and approaches, including AI-assisted development, agentic workflows, automation, and rapid prototyping. You should have an eye for product and design, and be able to quickly translate ideas into functional, AI-enabled prototypes that can be tested with users or stakeholders. This role is ideal for engineers who thrive in ambiguity, move quickly, and take ownership end to end in an AI-centric environment. You will balance speed with sound engineering judgment, contributing to both early prototypes and scalable AI-driven solutions when ideas prove viable. If you enjoy building from scratch and seeing your work directly impact company strategy, ZT1 offers a uniquely high-leverage environment.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
- You will be responsible for owning and delivering quarterly goals for your team, leading engineers on your team through ambiguity to solve open-ended problems, and ensuring that everyone is supported throughout delivery.
- You will support your peers and stakeholders in the product development lifecycle by collaborating with product management, design & analytics by participating in ideation, articulating technical constraints, and partnering on decisions that properly consider risks and trade-offs.
- You will proactively identify project, process, technology or business issues, advocate for them, and lead in solving them.
- You will support the operations and availability of your team’s artifacts by creating and monitoring metrics, escalating when needed, and supporting “keep the lights on” & on-call efforts.
- You will foster a culture of quality and ownership on your team by setting or improving code review and design standards for your team, and advocating for them beyond your team through your writing and tech talks.
- You will help develop talent on your team by providing feedback and guidance, and leading by example.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- You have a total of 4+ years of experience as a software engineer.
- You are experienced in designing, developing and launching backend systems at scale technologies like Python, Kotlin, AWS, MySQL, and Kubernetes.
- You have experience shipping web apps using declarative UI frameworks like React or Vue.
- You have experience leveraging AI tools, agentic coding workflows, and automation to accelerate development, prototyping, and problem solving.
- You have strong experience leveraging AI tools, agentic coding workflows, and automation to accelerate development, prototyping, and problem solving.
- You have experience defining a technical plan for the delivery of a significant feature or system component with an elegant, simple and extensible design. You write high quality code that is easily understood and used by others.
- You are proficient at making significant changes in a large code base, and have developed a suite of tools and practices that enable you and your team to do so safely.
- Your experience demonstrates that you take ownership of your growth, proactively seeking feedback from your team, your manager, and your stakeholders.
- You have strong verbal and written communication skills that support effective collaboration with our global engineering team.
- This position requires either equivalent practical experience or a Bachelor’s degree in a related field.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Full Stack Product Engineer Jobs at Affirm Jobs
Frame your stack around fintech infrastructure
Affirm's engineering teams work on payment processing, lending systems, and real-time risk evaluation. Highlight experience with distributed systems, API design, or financial data pipelines in your resume so your background maps directly to their product surface area.
Clarify your OPT timeline during screening
If you're on F-1 OPT, tell your recruiter your exact STEM extension eligibility and end date upfront. Affirm can work within tight timelines, but delays come from misaligned expectations about how much authorized work time remains before an H-1B petition needs to be filed.
Target teams where sponsorship has clear precedent
Affirm sponsors across engineering functions, but product-facing full stack roles tied to their consumer app and merchant checkout surface tend to have the most active hiring. Prioritize open roles tied to these product lines when filtering job listings.
Verify E-Verify enrollment before accepting an offer
As a financial services company, Affirm participates in E-Verify, which is required to employ F-1 STEM OPT workers. Confirm this with your recruiter before signing, since your OPT work authorization depends on your employer's active E-Verify enrollment.
Use Migrate Mate to surface active sponsoring roles
Affirm posts full stack roles across multiple teams at different times. Use Migrate Mate to filter open Full Stack Product Engineer positions at Affirm by visa type, so you're applying to roles where sponsorship is already confirmed rather than asking about it after applying.

Find Full Stack Product Engineer at Affirm JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Affirm sponsor H-1B visas for Full Stack Product Engineers?
Yes, Affirm sponsors H-1B visas for Full Stack Product Engineers. The company has a consistent track record of filing H-1B petitions for engineering roles, and full stack positions are among the functions they hire internationally for. If you're subject to the H-1B cap lottery, timing your application cycle and securing an offer before the March registration window is critical.
How do I apply for Full Stack Product Engineer jobs at Affirm?
Apply directly through Affirm's careers page or browse verified open roles on Migrate Mate, which filters Affirm's listings by visa sponsorship eligibility. Affirm's engineering hiring process typically includes a recruiter screen, a technical assessment covering system design and full stack coding, and panel interviews with product and engineering stakeholders before an offer is extended.
Which visa types does Affirm commonly sponsor for Full Stack Product Engineer roles?
Affirm sponsors H-1B visas as the primary work authorization pathway for full stack engineers. They also support F-1 OPT and CPT for candidates already in the U.S. on student visas, TN visas for Canadian and Mexican nationals in qualifying roles, and EB-2 or EB-3 immigrant visa petitions for employees pursuing permanent residency.
What qualifications does Affirm look for in Full Stack Product Engineers?
Affirm typically expects proficiency across both frontend and backend systems, with experience in modern JavaScript frameworks, Python or Kotlin on the backend, and distributed cloud infrastructure. Given their product focus on payments and lending, familiarity with building reliable, high-throughput financial systems or consumer-facing transaction flows carries significant weight in the hiring process.
How do I time my application if my work authorization has an upcoming expiration?
If you're on STEM OPT, apply at least six to eight months before your authorization expires to allow time for H-1B cap registration in March and USCIS processing before your current status ends. For cap-exempt situations or TN renewals, timelines are shorter, but confirming Affirm's internal processing lead time with their immigration team early in the offer stage avoids last-minute gaps.
