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. We’re looking for a sharp, driven quantitative professional to join our dynamic Model Risk Management (MRM) team. This is your chance to dive deep into the models that power our most critical business decisions. You’ll collaborate across the company to shape a best-in-class risk framework, ensuring our models are robust, reliable, and ready for the future. If you’re passionate about the intersection of data science, finance, and risk, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct rigorous, independent validations of sophisticated models across finance, treasury, and analytics, through in-depth review, testing and ongoing monitoring to ensure their accuracy and integrity
  • Identify key model weaknesses and highlight opportunities for improvement, helping teams build stronger, more powerful tools
  • Collaborate with teams across the business to drive the remediation of validation findings
  • Partner with model owners and developers to implement and enhance our company-wide MRM framework, ensuring it remains effective and innovative
  • Work closely with our Accounting, Internal Controls, and Compliance teams to ensure we meet and exceed all audit and regulatory expectations

What We Look For

  • 6+ years of professional experience in a technical role like model development, model validation, or data analytics
  • Deep knowledge of ALM, treasury, and corporate finance
  • Hands‑on ability to script in languages like Python and wrangle large‑scale datasets with SQL
  • A BS, MS, or PhD in a quantitative field such as Quantitative Finance, Math, or Data Science
  • A natural problem‑solver with a meticulous eye for detail, a deep curiosity for how models work, and excellent critical‑thinking skills
  • Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, with a proven ability to translate complex technical ideas for any audience
  • Base Pay Grade – O. Equity Grade – 6. The base pay range is $170,000 - $220,000 per year.

    Affirm focuses on providing a simple and transparent pay structure which is based on a variety of factors, including location, experience, and job‑related skills.

    Base pay is part of a total compensation package that may include monthly stipends for health, wellness and tech spending, and benefits (including 100% subsidized medical coverage, dental and vision for you and your dependents). Eligibility for equity rewards is offered through our parent company, affirm Holdings, Inc.

    Benefits

  • Health care coverage – affirm covers all premiums for all levels of coverage for you and your dependents
  • Flexible Spending Wallets – generous stipends for spending on technology, food, various lifestyle needs, and family forming expenses
  • Time off – competitive vacation and holiday schedules allowing you to take time off to rest and recharge
  • ESPP – An employee stock purchase plan enabling you to buy shares of affirm at a discount
  • We believe it’s on us to provide an inclusive interview experience for all, including people with disabilities. We are happy to provide reasonable accommodations to candidates in need of individualized support during the hiring process.
