Job description

Join to apply for the IT Engineer II role at Affirm

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 seeking a forward-thinking IT Engineer to help design, automate, and secure our growing technology ecosystem. As an IT Engineer, you’ll play a key role in advancing operational excellence, strengthening security, and empowering teams through smarter, more connected systems.

What You’ll Do

  • Technical Strategy & Systems Design : Partner with business and technical stakeholders to translate requirements into scalable, secure, and user‑centric solutions. Design architectures that integrate SaaS platforms, identity systems, and automations across the enterprise.
  • Automation & Integration Development : Build and maintain automations using REST APIs, scripting languages (Python, JavaScript / TypeScript), and workflow platforms (e.g., Okta Workflows, Workato, Zapier). Streamline repetitive processes and strengthen cross‑system interoperability.
  • AI & Emerging Technology Enablement : Leverage AI‑assisted tools to accelerate development, incident response, and documentation. Experiment with generative AI and workflow intelligence to improve IT operations and knowledge management.
  • Operational Reliability & Security : Enhance the reliability and resilience of critical IT services. Implement monitoring, alerting, and governance practices that protect data and maintain compliance with security standards.
  • Incident Resolution & Root Cause Analysis : Troubleshoot technical issues efficiently, conduct root cause analyses, and deliver durable long‑term fixes that reduce operational noise and support business continuity.
  • Knowledge Sharing & Collaboration : Create and maintain technical documentation, playbooks, and process diagrams. Mentor teammates and contribute to a culture of transparency, automation, and continuous improvement.

What We Look For

  • 3–5 years of experience in IT Engineering, Systems Administration, or Solutions Engineering within a SaaS or enterprise environment.
  • Deep understanding of modern SaaS ecosystems, SSO / SCIM integrations, and identity / access management frameworks (e.g., Okta, Azure AD).
  • Hands‑on experience coding and automating with APIs and scripting languages (Python, JavaScript / TypeScript).
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills—capable of bridging business goals with technical implementation.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver measurable results in a dynamic, fast‑paced environment.
  • Pluses

  • Experience with workflow automation platforms such as Okta Workflows, Workato, Zapier, Tines, or equivalent.
  • Familiarity with AI‑assisted development (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT, CodeWhisperer) and its applications in IT and automation.
  • Knowledge of SaaS management and governance frameworks, including lifecycle management and license optimization.
  • Background in cloud‑based infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP, or Azure) and DevOps practices.
  • Strong analytical mindset and a passion for improving team productivity through smarter systems design.
  • Experience working with distributed, cross‑functional teams and influencing outcomes across multiple stakeholders.
  • Pay Grade - I

    Equity Grade - 3

    Employees new to Affirm typically come in at the start of the pay range. The pay structure 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 equity rewards, monthly stipends for health, wellness and tech spending, and benefits (including 100% subsidized medical coverage, dental and vision for you and your dependents).

    CAN base pay range : $90,000 - $130,000

    Affirm is proud to be a remote‑first company! The majority of our roles are remote and you can work almost anywhere within the country of employment. A limited number of roles remain office‑based due to the nature of their job responsibilities.

    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 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.
