The Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) team plays a pivotal role in Affirm’s mission, building products that establish direct and lasting relationships with our customers. Our App and Card experiences empower people with transparent financing options wherever they need them, helping them make informed financial decisions with confidence.

As a Staff Product Designer, you will have the opportunity to shape the future of consumer finance at a critical inflection point in Affirm’s journey. This is one of the most impactful product areas, and you’ll have the full support of a deeply experienced and committed team to push boundaries, innovate, and create best-in-class experiences that redefine how people interact with their finances.

  • Embrace agility-iterating quickly, adapting to change, and making data-driven decisions while maintaining a strong vision for the future.
  • Balance near-term execution with long-term strategic thinking, ensuring scalability and coherence across the Affirm ecosystem.
  • Push the envelope-challenge the status quo, think outside the box, and take calculated risks to drive meaningful innovation in financial products.
  • Bring exceptional visual and interaction design skills to craft delightful, polished experiences that build trust and confidence.
  • Champion a test-and-learn mindset, leveraging experimentation, research, and analytics to continuously refine and optimize user experiences.

Requirements

  • Proactive & Adaptable: You thrive in fast-paced, evolving environments and take initiative to drive progress.
  • Strong Product Sense: You deeply understand user needs, business goals, and technical constraints-and can balance them effectively in your design decisions.
  • Data-Informed & Risk-Taking: You use data to guide your thinking but aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions and explore bold ideas.
  • Collaborative & Humble: You value diverse perspectives, work well with cross-functional partners, and are open to feedback to make the best decisions for our users.
  • Exceptional Craft & Visual Skills: You have a keen eye for detail, design systems, and interaction patterns that elevate user experiences.
  • Passion for Innovation: You’re excited about the challenge of designing financial products that improve people’s lives and want to push the industry forward.
