Platform Programs Lead, Global Mobility + Compliance
Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest.
Affirm’s Platform Programs Team supports the seamless movement of employees, both within Affirm and around the world. Part of Affirm’s People Team, we are responsible for building and scaling Affirm’s global mobility and compliance programs in close coordination with internal partners and external vendors.
