## Description

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 InfoSec team protects Affirm’s systems and data from evolving threats. We manage security risk, monitor vulnerabilities, and enforce protective controls across the company. The team leads incident response, compliance, identity and access management, and employee training. Our goal is to ensure that security is built into every system and decision at Affirm.

As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you will lead programs that protect Affirm’s products, systems, and data. Partnering with Information Security, IT, and Engineering, you will turn complex security priorities into clear plans, drive delivery across teams, and achieve measurable improvements in security and operational health.

Responsibilities:

- Lead technical security programs from planning through delivery, aligning Information Security, IT, Engineering, Infrastructure, and Product partners on scope, milestones, ownership, and outcomes.

- Partner with security leads to translate priorities and risk assessments into executable roadmaps, balancing risk reduction with engineering capacity and business needs.

- Engage in architecture reviews and threat modeling discussions, ask questions that clarify technical tradeoffs, and translate security requirements into concrete engineering deliverables.

- Manage dependencies, risks, and delivery commitments across teams, resolve blockers, and escalate decisions early with clear options and recommendations.

- Coordinate remediation of vulnerabilities and security findings, helping teams meet agreed service levels and establish sustainable plans for complex or long-term issues.

- Establish practical planning, review, and decision-making processes that clarify accountability and improve execution as security programs scale.

Requirements:

- 8+ years of experience leading complex technical programs, including delivery of information security initiatives across multiple teams.

- Practical experience in one or more security domains, such as product or platform security, identity and access management, vulnerability management, or risk assessment, and understand how security frameworks translate into technical controls.

- Ability to turn ambiguous goals into achievable plans with clear milestones, dependencies, owners, and success measures, adapting as priorities and risks change.

- Experience improving program delivery through practical processes and meaningful metrics, using evidence and feedback to identify gaps and measure results.

- Ability to build trust and influence without direct authority, align partners with competing priorities, and communicate complex technical topics clearly across a distributed organization.

Benefits:

- Health coverage at no cost: 100% of premiums for employees and their dependents.

- Spending stipends: Monthly stipends support your tech setup, and the ability to choose health and wellness options that are right for you.

- Time off to recharge: Flexible time off and generous holiday calendars help you rest when you need to.

- Own a piece of what you build: Employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) lets you buy Affirm stock at a discount.
