Own the telemetry pipeline architecture, set the Observability team's technical strategy, mentor engineers, and collaborate across teams to improve reliability and performance. | Requires 8+ years building backend systems at scale with Python or Kotlin, extensive distributed-systems, cloud-infrastructure, and high-volume telemetry experience, plus a bachelor's degree. | At Affirm, we exist for the moments that matter—giving people a clear, predictable way to pay over time, with no hidden fees, no surprises, and no tradeoffs on what matters most. The Observability team builds the platform every Affirm engineer relies on to understand the behavior and performance of our systems. Our platform ingests 200+ TB/day of metrics, logs, and traces from hundreds of services across 80+ Kubernetes clusters, and when a user's checkout fails, our data is how engineers find out why. Over the next year, we’re moving to wide events, with one context-rich event per request, improving the signal-to-noise ratio to make debugging faster. We’re also introducing log sampling and building observability best practices into agentic development and code review, so that AI-assisted code is well instrumented by default. We’re looking for a Staff Software Engineer to be the technical lead for Observability. You’ll spend most of your time hands-on while defining the roadmap, driving cross-functional projects, mentoring a team of six engineers, and partnering closely with infrastructure and product teams. What You'll Do · You will own the architecture of Affirm’s telemetry pipeline, balancing reliability, query performance, and cost at 200+ TB/day. · You will design log sampling strategies that significantly reduce volume and cost without losing the signal engineers need during incidents. · You will shape how observability fits into agentic development, so that AI coding agents and code review catch instrumentation gaps before code ships. · You will be responsible for setting technical strategy for your team on a year-long time scale, and help your team tie it together with critical, business-impacting projects. · You will collaborate across teams in the product development lifecycle by collaborating with product management, design & analytics to ensure technical sustainability, risks and trade-offs are well understood and managed. · You will act as a force-multiplier for your team through your definition and advocacy of technical solutions and operational processes. · You take ownership of your team’s operations and availability by ensuring you have the right monitoring, triage rotations, playbooks, polcities, testing and alerting in place to support “keep the lights on” & on-call efforts. · You will foster a culture of quality and ownership on your team by setting code review and design standards for your team, and advocating for them beyond your team through your writing and tech talks. · You will help develop talent on your team by providing feedback and guidance, and leading by example. What We Look For · You have 8+ years of experience designing, developing and launching backend systems at scale using languages like Python or Kotlin. · You have an extensive track record of developing highly available distributed systems using technologies like AWS, MySQL, Flink and Kubernetes. · You have built or operated high-volume telemetry systems (metrics, logs, and/or traces) using technologies like OpenTelemetry, Kafka, and Terraform. · You have a well-informed point of view on modern observability practices such as structured and wide events, sampling, cardinality management, and SLOs. · You have driven adoption of a platform standard across many engineering teams, through both tooling and engagement. · You have experience delivering major features, system components or deprecating existing functionality in a system through the definition of a technical and execution plan. You write high quality code that is easily understood and used by others. · You thrive in ambiguity, and are comfortable moving from low level language idioms all the way to the architecture of large systems to understand how they work. · Your growth and impact trajectory demonstrates that you have mastered gathering and iterating on feedback from your engineering and cross-functional peers. · You have strong verbal and written communication skills that support effective collaboration with our global engineering team. · This position requires either equivalent practical experience or a Bachelor’s degree in a related field.

You would define and roll out workload safety standards across an Amazon EKS fleet while improving Kubernetes reliability and efficiency and guiding the roadmap with operational and cost metrics. | The role requires 5+ years operating Kubernetes in production at scale, deep knowledge of workload management and policy-as-code, Go or Python proficiency, incident debugging and leadership experience, plus a bachelor’s degree or equivalent. | At Affirm, we exist for the moments that matter—giving people a clear, predictable way to pay over time, with no hidden fees, no surprises, and no tradeoffs on what matters most. Affirm's engineering team is building a large-scale, highly available, and global infrastructure that is shared across multiple financial products. Ensuring that our infrastructure is accessible to all engineers is critical to the success of the business. We pride ourselves on our culture across engineering of engaging in thorough technical design review, operational excellence, and capable incident response and analysis. Affirm runs its workloads on more than 85 Amazon EKS clusters, and the number is growing. The Workload Safety team creates one set of standards for how workloads are configured and run, so Affirm can grow globally and still meet its availability and latency SLOs. The team identifies the industry best practices Affirm needs, drives their adoption across every engineering team on EKS, and enforces them through policy and automation so new workloads comply by default. As a senior engineer on the team, you will help set its roadmap, decide which standards matter most, and build a repeatable way to take each standard from research to enforcement across the fleet. What you’ll do Define and evolve workload safety standards for Affirm's EKS fleet, such as CPU and memory settings, workload isolation and placement, tolerance for disruption, graceful termination to name a few Own each standard end to end: research and prototyping, white-glove onboarding for early adopters, self-service guidance for everyone else, and automation and policy guardrails that keep every workload compliant from day one Lead cross-team initiatives from design through fleet-wide rollout, mentor other engineers, and set a high bar for design, code review, and operational readiness Isolate workloads by criticality and resource profile so one misbehaving workload cannot degrade critical paths such as checkout Fix stuck workloads and node lifecycle problems, such as pods that ignore termination signals, pod disruption budgets that block node cycling, and Karpenter timeouts that prevent bin packing and the removal of excess capacity Determine the safe operating limits of each cluster (pod count, node count, API server request volume), keep clusters within them, and develop control plane scaling patterns for bursty workloads such as scheduled batch jobs and large deployments Analyze workload resource profiles across the fleet (CPU, memory, disk, network) to guide EC2 instance type strategy, and automate that analysis as workloads change Measure each standard's impact on availability, latency, risk, and cost, and use the results to prioritize the roadmap Participate in on-call for Kubernetes runtime issues across the fleet, and turn recurring failure patterns into roadmap items Work closely with the teams that run services, batch jobs, and ML workloads on EKS, and with the deployment, capacity, and SRE teams Keep up with new best practices from the Kubernetes community and adapt them to Affirm's needs What we look for 5+ years of experience running Kubernetes in production at scale, ideally Amazon EKS across many clusters Deep understanding of Kubernetes resource management and scheduling: requests and limits, OOM and CPU throttling behavior, affinity and anti-affinity, taints and tolerations, and topology spread constraints Solid grasp of the pod lifecycle and disruption management, including graceful termination, pod disruption budgets, and node draining Experience enforcing configuration standards through admission control and policy-as-code (for example, OPA Gatekeeper or Kyverno) Proficiency in Go or Python, including building production infrastructure software such as Kubernetes controllers, operators, or admission webhooks Strong production debugging skills and a demonstrated ability to turn recurring incidents into systemic fixes Track record of leading technical initiatives across multiple teams, driving adoption of shared standards, and mentoring other engineers Experience quantifying the impact of infrastructure changes on availability, latency, and cost Strong written communication, including standards and guidance that teams can adopt on their own This position requires either equivalent practical experience or a Bachelor’s degree in a related field.

Own end-to-end go-to-market operations for product initiatives, translating product, legal, risk, and pricing inputs into field processes, tools, and adoption tracking. | Requires 6+ years in business, revenue, or sales operations, end-to-end GTM ownership, cross-functional execution, SQL, AI workflow experience, and familiarity with merchant, payments, or SaaS sales motions. | At Affirm, we exist for the moments that matter—giving people a clear, predictable way to pay over time, with no hidden fees, no surprises, and no tradeoffs on what matters most. About The Revenue Team The Revenue team drives Affirm's top-line growth through strategic partnerships, growth initiatives, and go-to-market execution. We acquire, retain, and expand merchant relationships across eCommerce, in-store, telesales, and the Affirm app. The team leads onboarding, relationship management, and performance optimization to help partners succeed. We deliver value-added solutions, drive adoption, and support long-term business growth by connecting merchants and consumers through Affirm's products. About The Role GTM Strategy & Operations takes product and pricing initiatives and creates commercially viable, operationally sound go-to-market motions. We partner with Product, Product Marketing, Legal, Rev Ops, and Pricing to design rollout groups, coordinate implementation, and equip the field — CSMs, AEs, and TAMs — with the processes they need to create world-class go-to-market. As an individual contributor, the Lead owns the go-to-market operations for a specific product line or segment end to end. You're handed the objective and you decide how to execute: building the target lists, assigning appropriate account actions, segmenting customers by contractual and pricing eligibility, and tracking adoption. You turn high-level product and pricing inputs into a plan a rep can actually execute. What You'll Do • Own go-to-market operations for field teams executing on strategic initiatives — segmenting potential customers and managing the legal and pricing operations. • Turn inputs from cross-functional stakeholders like Product, Legal, Risk, and Pricing into an executable process. • Manage Affirm’s first-in-class AI contract dashboard for field teams to understand legal and pricing eligibility for product initiatives. • Build and maintain the tools and playbooks the field needs for strategic initiatives, including contract renewal planning, pricing standardization, and new product GTM. • Fluently navigate different perspectives on the same launch — the exec "why it matters," the customer value proposition, and the field-facing analysis. • Sit close to the field, and turn what you hear into recommendations for cross-functional teams. • Analyze performance data to find where a launch is stalling, and flag risks early. What We Look For • 6+ years of experience in business operations, revenue or sales operations, ideally in FinTech, SaaS, or another high-growth environment. • A track record of owning a go-to-market motion or customer-facing initiative end to end, rollout through adoption, within a defined scope. • You've been handed vague "go make this work" instructions, then built a solution that resonated with stakeholders and customers. • Experience working cross-functionally with Product, PMM, Client Success, Sales, Analytics, Legal, or Pricing. • Comfort translating product and pricing strategy into practical, field-ready execution. • Solid analytical instincts: you use adoption and performance data to decide what to do next, not just to report what happened. • Clear, action-oriented writing and speaking. • You do your best work in ambiguity and move fast without waiting to be told the approach. • Familiarity with merchant, payments, or SaaS sales motions is a must-have. • Experience using SQL to query, manipulate, and analyze data to support business insights and decision-making. • Demonstrated experience leveraging AI tools to improve workflows, automate processes, and drive efficiency, with an understanding of how to apply and validate AI-generated outputs.

ABOUT OPS ENABLEMENT The Operations Enablement team builds the capabilities required to deliver fast, accurate, and high-quality servicing experiences for Affirm’s customers and merchants—while identifying opportunities to eliminate the need for them to contact us in the first place. We partner across Operations, Product, Engineering, Vendor Management, Legal, and Compliance to ensure every agent is trained, equipped, and able to deliver measurable results from day one. Operating across the full servicing lifecycle, we translate new products, policies, and business requirements into scalable operational capabilities.
