The Affirm Card is at a massive inflection point. We have reached millions of cardholders inside our network, but we are just scratching the surface of a 150M+ external TAM.

This is not just an optimization role; it is a 0->1 strategic ownership role. You will be responsible for the Activation Journey, New User Experience (NUX), and the Checkout experience. Your mandate is to make the onboarding process "butter smooth" in an industry known for friction, turning complex financial compliance into a magical, instant consumer experience.

You will own the roadmap for taking a user from "Interested" to "Ready to Transact," bridging the gap between digital provisioning and physical card unboxing.

You will turn regulatory requirements into seamless product experiences. Drive Activation Economics: Own the metrics that matter. You are responsible for Time-to-First-Transaction, 30-Day Activation Rates, and Wallet Provisioning penetration. What we look for 7+ years of Product Management experience, with a clear track record in consumer mobile apps, fintech, or neobanks. Experience Owning Critical Funnels: You have deep experience optimizing high-stakes conversion flows (e.g., checkouts, sign-ups, KYC) and understand the psychology of user activation. 0->1 Builder Mentality: You aren’t just an optimizer; you have a history of launching new products or features from scratch that fundamentally changed user behavior. Technical & Design Fluency: You can speak the language of engineering (API constraints, latency) and have an incredibly high bar for UI/UX design. You know what "butter smooth" feels like and won't settle for clunky interactions. Strategic Influence: You have experience leading without authority, capable of aligning senior stakeholders and guiding embedded engineering/design pods through ambiguity.
