You will be able to work with your teams, as well as product stakeholder teams, to define architectural/organizational future states that we can scale to in the future. You will need to make balanced calls that align with our forward-looking vision and current business & technology critical needs.

- Provide leadership and growth opportunities to team members, mentor engineers, recruit, and represent Affirm hiring brands.
- Lead technical decisions, projects, and roadmaps within the Online Storage team, shaping Affirm's strategy for managing and serving relational and key-value storage workloads.
- Collaborate with peers, leadership, and stakeholders across platform engineering and product engineering organizations.
- In collaboration with tech leads, develop a multi-year roadmap to design and implement frameworks, services, and tools for new Affirm products and business needs.
- Guide, tutor, and aid in the professional growth of junior and senior engineers within the team.

- Solid leadership and interpersonal skills.
- 10+ years of experience in managing multiple diverse and inclusive teams and delivering large cross-functional technical programs.
- Proven track record in stakeholder management, ownership, and successful delivery.
- Depth in cache architecture and lifecycle management: tiered cache design, eviction and TTL policies, warm-up/priming strategies, consistency models, backpressure, and thundering-herd protection.
- Track record operating low-latency, high-throughput storage and caching platforms in production: e.g., Redis or Memcached, DynamoDB and MySQL/PostgreSQL/TiDB/Cockroach/Vitess, multi-region topologies, and cross-region replication strategies.
- Capable of mentorship, cross-functional project execution, and individual contribution.
- Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills with a growth mindset.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Software Product Manager Jobs at Affirm
Frame your fintech product credentials clearly
Affirm's PM roles sit at the intersection of financial regulation and consumer technology. Highlight experience with payment systems, credit products, or compliance-adjacent features in your resume so hiring managers can immediately map your background to their domain.
Target Affirm's merchant and consumer product teams
Affirm structures PM hiring around merchant integrations, checkout infrastructure, and consumer credit. Identify which product area aligns with your background before applying, and tailor your materials to that vertical rather than applying broadly across all open roles.
Confirm your visa category fits Affirm's sponsorship scope
Affirm sponsors H-1B, TN, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT for Software Product Manager roles. If you hold TN status, confirm your job offer letter explicitly titles the role in a way that satisfies the TN professional category requirements before signing.
Align your offer timeline with H-1B cap deadlines
H-1B cap registration opens in March for an October 1 start date. If you're negotiating an offer in late winter or early spring, build this window into your expected start date conversation so Affirm's immigration team can file on time.
Clarify OPT extension eligibility before your offer expires
F-1 OPT gives you 12 months of work authorization, with a 24-month STEM extension if your undergraduate or graduate degree qualifies. Confirm with USCIS guidance whether a Product Management role at a fintech company satisfies STEM OPT reporting requirements under your specific degree field.
Use Migrate Mate to find open Software Product Manager roles
Affirm posts Software Product Manager openings across product areas and seniority levels. Use Migrate Mate to filter active Affirm listings by visa type so you're only applying to roles where your sponsorship category is already confirmed as supported.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Affirm sponsor H-1B visas for Software Product Managers?
Yes. Affirm sponsors H-1B visas for Software Product Manager roles and has done so consistently across multiple hiring cycles. If you're in the H-1B lottery pool, Affirm's immigration team coordinates the cap registration and I-129 petition filing. If you already hold H-1B visa status with another employer, Affirm can file an H-1B transfer so you can start before USCIS issues a final approval.
How do I apply for Software Product Manager jobs at Affirm?
Applications go through Affirm's careers page, where roles are organized by product area. Before applying, identify which team aligns with your background, whether that's merchant integrations, consumer credit, or platform infrastructure. Migrate Mate aggregates Affirm's open Software Product Manager listings filtered by visa sponsorship type, which makes it easier to confirm your visa category is supported before you invest time in the application.
Which visa types does Affirm commonly use for Software Product Manager hires?
Affirm supports H-1B, TN visa, F-1 OPT, and F-1 CPT for Software Product Manager positions, as well as employment-based Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3. The right category depends on your nationality and current status. Canadian and Mexican nationals are often well-positioned for TN visas, which don't require lottery registration and can be processed at the border with an offer letter and supporting documents.
What qualifications does Affirm expect for Software Product Manager roles?
Affirm's Software Product Manager roles typically require a bachelor's degree in a technical or business field, though many hires hold degrees in computer science, engineering, or economics. Beyond credentials, Affirm looks for demonstrated experience shipping fintech or payment products, comfort with data-driven decision-making, and the ability to work across engineering and compliance stakeholders. Experience with consumer credit, BNPL products, or regulated financial products is a meaningful differentiator.
How do I plan my timeline if I need H-1B sponsorship from Affirm?
H-1B cap-subject petitions have a fixed annual timeline: USCIS opens registration in March, conducts the lottery shortly after, and approved petitions take effect October 1. If you receive an offer in spring or summer, you'll likely need to bridge the gap using F-1 OPT, CPT, or another status. Coordinate with Affirm's HR team early so they can confirm the filing window and whether premium processing is available for your petition.
