Analytics Lead, Full Stack

About the role

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 is reinventing credit to make it more honest and transparent, giving consumers flexible ways to pay without hidden fees or compounding interest. After building a market-leading BNPL network with 30M+ customers, $50B+ GMV and 500k merchants, we’re entering our next ambitious chapter: transforming DTC shopping. At the center of this vision is the Affirm Marketplace, a rapidly scaling, high-leverage platform that connects consumers with merchants in a dynamic, two-sided ecosystem.

About the Team

We analyze performance not just to report on it, but to determine where to invest resources for maximum impact through building tools and analytical frameworks. We take ownership of the entire analytical lifecycle, from initial question to final business decision, ensuring Affirm grows efficiently and intelligently.
