Job Description
• Own and drive the product roadmap for card funding flows, settlement orchestration, ledger posting, and reconciliation, balancing near-term delivery with long-term platform scalability.
• Design scalable reconciliation and exception-handling systems that ensure all settlements, disbursements, and funds movements are accurately posted, traceable, and reportable via card ledgers.
• Evolve Affirm funding and liquidity orchestration models across multiple capital sources (e.g., consumer balances, treasury accounts, credit facilities) to optimize capital efficiency and program resiliency.
• Define and launch new card programs from 0→1, including program account structures, funding mechanics, and reconciliation frameworks, to support expansion into new products, geographies, and channels, in close partnership with issuing banks and processors.
• Lead cross-functional execution across Engineering, Finance, Analytics, Legal/Compliance, and Operations to deliver reliable, compliant, and fully traceable money movement and ledger systems.
• Address unique funding challenges at the intersection of BNPL and card issuing through platform innovation that improves funding flows, accelerates settlement, and strengthens ledger resilience across card programs.
• Serve as a card-issuing domain expert and trusted partner, with deep understanding of processor, issuing-bank, and network interactions, card program economics, and how Affirm’s products operate within that ecosystem.
• Measure and improve platform health, defining success metrics such as settlement success rates, reconciliation coverage, exception volumes, and time-to-resolution; establish SLAs, runbooks, and observability for critical money-movement pipelines.
• Communicate clearly with senior leaders, presenting insights, tradeoffs, and recommendations that inform strategy and drive company objectives.

- Strong understanding of the card issuing and acquiring lifecycle, including familiarity with card network message schemas and how transactions translate into issuer–acquirer message flows across the lifecycle.
- Proven ability to influence stakeholders and partner closely with Engineering, Finance, and external partners on funding strategy, accounting alignment, cash tracking, and reconciliation workflows.
- Demonstrated ability to operate in ambiguity, synthesize incomplete inputs, and drive execution from concept through launch.
- Comfort working with technical systems (APIs, files, schemas) and translating complex financial flows into precise product requirements.
- This position requires either equivalent practical experience or a Bachelor’s degree in a related field.
