Job 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.

About the InfoSec team

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. We maintain a secure, trustworthy environment so the business can operate and grow with confidence.

About the role

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.

What you’ll do

  • You will lead technical security programs from planning through delivery, aligning Information Security, IT, Engineering, Infrastructure, and Product partners on scope, milestones, ownership, and outcomes.
  • You will partner with security leads to translate priorities and risk assessments into executable roadmaps, balancing risk reduction with engineering capacity and business needs.
  • You will engage in architecture reviews and threat modeling discussions, ask questions that clarify technical tradeoffs, and translate security requirements into concrete engineering deliverables.
  • You will manage dependencies, risks, and delivery commitments across teams, resolve blockers, and escalate decisions early with clear options and recommendations.
  • You will coordinate remediation of vulnerabilities and security findings, helping teams meet agreed service levels and establish sustainable plans for complex or long-term issues.
  • You will establish practical planning, review, and decision-making processes that clarify accountability and improve execution as security programs scale.

What we look for

  • You have 8+ years of experience leading complex technical programs, including delivery of information security initiatives across multiple teams.
  • You have 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.
  • You can turn ambiguous goals into achievable plans with clear milestones, dependencies, owners, and success measures, adapting as priorities and risks change.
  • You have improved program delivery through practical processes and meaningful metrics, using evidence and feedback to identify gaps and measure results.
  • You build trust and influence without direct authority, align partners with competing priorities, and communicate complex technical topics clearly across a distributed organization.
