What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Marketing Manager position at Affirm?
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.
As a Product Marketing Manager, you will play a highly strategic and hands-on leadership role, shaping how customer insights translate into end-to-end marketing strategy and execution. You will not only define go-to-market approaches, but also operationalize scalable, repeatable systems that elevate how marketing is executed across merchants, partners, and internal teams.
This role is ideal for a leader who is equally comfortable setting strategy, building systems, and diving into ambiguity — someone who can prioritize across competing demands, influence without authority, and drive forward progress with the right level of leadership visibility.
