IT Engineer II

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 affirm’s growing technology ecosystem. Our ideal candidate thrives at the intersection of systems architecture and hands‑on development—building integrations, leveraging AI‑assisted tools, and driving automation that scales across the enterprise. 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.
