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. Reporting directly to our VP of Technical Programs and Operations, the Senior Director will be responsible for leading the Technical Program Management function to enhance the development and operation of Affirm’s broad set of financial products.
The scope of the Technical Program Management function includes defining, building, and executing company and organization wide planning, goal setting, cross-functional program delivery, and results tracking, which serves as a critical component of the Technology organization's operating and delivery cadence. As the Senior Director of Technical Program Management, you will play a pivotal role in driving large-scale change and transformation across the organization. Your mission will be to directly lead and influence the senior leadership team in strategic planning and drive development of company and organization-wide OKRs. This includes defining how we plan across technology and the broader company, ensuring that planning integrates with all functions across Affirm including Finance, Revenue, and Legal. Continued improvements to these processes are critical to scale the business, optimize resource usage, and provide necessary visibility into our increasingly complex development, release, and execution processes.
You will be responsible for leading multiple technical program management teams while driving strategic alignment across Product, Engineering, Information Security, and Analytics senior leadership. You will lead efforts to identify opportunities, design and implement robust change management processes, drive continuous improvement, develop scalable frameworks, and strengthen organization wide communication to enhance efficiency and drive sustainable operability improvements that directly influence the company growth and results. A critical aspect of this role will be actively developing and growing our key talent as well as evolving the organization as new opportunities arise. You will bring deep expertise in technical program management and building operational maturity to enable us to scale our delivery of great Affirm products. This will involve working with large amounts of data, understanding complex systems, influencing strategic prioritization, and focusing on simplification while tackling complex challenges.
Our ideal candidate is an analytical, hands-on, steeped in the details, collaborative, business minded, culture-building leader who is able to quickly synthesize technical solutions to complex, multivariate global business opportunities, and who brings key experiences to the role as we build and operate a cohesive suite of honest consumer products that improve financial lives. Exceptional collaboration skills are paramount, as this role requires extensive cross-functional partnership with Product, Engineering, Information Security, and Analytics. A successful candidate must genuinely care about the details and most importantly, about the outcomes. In our fast paced environment, there is always new information to consider and incorporate in our plans. We need an agile and adaptable leader willing to re-evaluate prior decisions as new information becomes available. This is something we do continuously and with an ever increasing frequency at Affirm. Working in a fast paced environment with the quick feedback loop rewards knowing the details and being on top of your area of responsibility, but really what ties it all together is being motivated and using your skills to get things done. If you would like to learn more about Affirm’s cultural DNA we recommend our CEO’s reflections on building a meritocracy.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Which finance companies sponsor H-1B visas in New York?
New York's largest finance employers are among the most active H-1B sponsors in the country. JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, BlackRock, and Bank of America consistently appear in Department of Labor LCA disclosure data for finance roles. Beyond the major banks, asset managers, hedge funds, and fintech firms headquartered in New York also file H-1B petitions, though sponsorship willingness varies significantly by firm size and hiring volume.
Which cities in New York have the most finance H-1B sponsorship jobs?
Manhattan accounts for the vast majority of finance H-1B sponsorship activity in New York State, driven by the concentration of global banks, investment firms, and financial regulators in Midtown and the Financial District. Buffalo and Albany have smaller finance sectors with some sponsoring employers, primarily in banking operations and insurance. For international candidates, the New York City metro area is by far the most active market for sponsored finance roles.
What types of finance roles typically qualify for H-1B sponsorship?
H-1B sponsorship requires the position to qualify as a specialty occupation, meaning it normally requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field. In finance, roles that consistently meet this standard include financial analysts, quantitative analysts, risk managers, compliance officers, investment bankers, and portfolio managers. Positions requiring degrees in finance, economics, mathematics, statistics, or a closely related discipline are well-suited. General or administrative roles without a specific degree requirement are less likely to qualify.
How do I find finance H-1B sponsorship jobs in New York?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. You can filter by H-1B visa type, the finance industry, and New York to see roles where employers have a documented history of sponsorship. This saves significant time compared to applying broadly and discovering late in the process that a company does not sponsor. Migrate Mate surfaces positions across investment banking, asset management, fintech, and related finance sectors in the New York market.
Are there any New York-specific considerations for H-1B sponsorship in finance?
New York City's finance employers are subject to the standard federal H-1B process, but a few local factors are worth understanding. New York State has a high prevailing wage tier for finance roles due to the cost of living, which means the wages certified on the Labor Condition Application tend to be higher than in other states. Some firms also require candidates to clear FINRA licensing or background checks before or shortly after starting, which can affect onboarding timelines but does not change the H-1B petition process itself.
What is the prevailing wage for H-1B finance jobs in New York?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
