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.

The Repayment Scheduling engineering team is growing rapidly, and we're looking for a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Backend development. We're a Backend team located entirely in Europe within the same time zone, but culturally rooted in Silicon Valley.

We directly improve the financial lives of over 20 million people, giving them peace of mind that their payments will be made on time.

You'll learn quickly from experienced teammates and grow your craft on problems that matter at scale.
