Overview

Senior Director, Software Engineering (Machine Learning) – 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 are seeking a Senior Director to lead centralized Machine Learning capability at Affirm, with a focus on guiding ML strategy and delivering business impact across underwriting, fraud, servicing, and personalization.

What You’ll Do

  • Set the vision for Machine Learning and AI at Affirm. Hire world class Machine Learning modelers, platform and software engineers to execute on that vision.
  • Own the core model development lifecycle and business outcomes across established verticals – underwriting, fraud, servicing, personalization.
  • Collaborate with product and business leadership to champion AI adoption in existing and new products.
  • Balance ML investments across traditional ML and transformer-based models.
  • Evolve ML platform to support growing ML needs with emphasis on training, tuning and serving AI models.
  • Establish a robust yet accelerated ML development lifecycle and a culture of experimentation and fast learning.
  • Work with cross-functional partners outside engineering including product, risk, servicing, legal and compliance.

What We Look For

  • 15+ years of relevant experience in Machine Learning, AI, or related technical domains
  • Experience leading centralized ML teams comprising ML modelers and ML platform engineers
  • Successful track record in delivering models that directly drive business outcomes and PnL
  • Comfortable working in matrix organizations and influencing across a broad set of leaders
  • Experience hiring, growing, and retaining talent
  • Keeps up with evolving ML landscape — understands when to buy vs build and what tools / techniques drive the most business value
  • Compensation and Benefits

    Base Pay Grade – V; Equ ity Grade – 13. Base pay range per year : CAN : $270,000 - $310,000. Employees new to Affirm typically start at the lower end of the pay range. Affirm offers a transparent pay structure based on location, experience and job-related skills. The total compensation package may include stipends for health, wellness and tech spending, and benefits (including 100% subsidized medical coverage, dental and vision for you and your dependents). Equity rewards may be offered by Affirm Holdings, Inc. (parent company).

    Affirm is a remote-first company. The majority of roles are remote and you can work almost anywhere within the country of employment. Some roles may require occasional office work; a limited number of roles remain office-based due to 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 Technology, Food, Lifestyle and family forming expenses
  • Time off – vacation and holiday schedules allowing time off to rest and recharge
  • ESPP – Employee stock purchase plan enabling you to buy shares at a discount
  • We’re committed to an inclusive interview experience for all candidates and provide reasonable accommodations as needed during the hiring process. By clicking "Submit Application," you acknowledge Affirm's Global Candidate Privacy Notice and consent to the collection, processing, and storage of your personal data as described therein.
