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.

About the Revenue team

The Revenue team drives Affirm’s top-line growth through strategic partnerships, pricing, and go-to-market execution. We acquire, retain, and expand merchant relationships across eCommerce, in-store, telesales, and the Affirm app. The team leads onboarding, relationship management, and performance optimization to help partners succeed. We deliver value-added solutions, drive adoption, and support long-term business growth by connecting merchants and consumers through Affirm’s products.

About the Role

GTM Strategy & Operations takes product and pricing initiatives and creates commercially viable, operationally sound go-to-market motions. We partner with Product, Product Marketing, Legal, Rev Ops, and Pricing to design rollout groups, coordinate implementation, and equip the field — CSMs, AEs, and TAMs — with the processes they need to create world-class go-to-market. As an individual contributor, the Lead owns the go-to-market for a specific product line or segment end to end. You're handed the objective ("drive adoption for this new feature") and you decide how: the rollout plan, the enablement, the tracking. You turn half-formed product and pricing inputs into a plan a rep can actually execute.

What You'll Do

  • Own the go-to-market for a product line or segment end to end — rollout design, enablement, and the adoption target you're driving toward.

  • Turn inputs from cross-functional stakeholders like Product, Pricing, and PMM into a coherent GTM strategy, and track adoption against goal.

  • Fluently navigate different perspectives on the same launch — the exec "why it matters," the customer value proposition, and the rep's reasons to believe.

  • Build and maintain the materials, processes, and playbooks the field needs.

  • Sit close to the field, and turn what you hear into recommendations for Product Marketing.

  • Analyze performance data to find where a launch is stalling, and flag risks early.

What We Look For

  • 6+ years of experience in go-to-market strategy, product marketing, revenue or sales operations, ideally in FinTech, SaaS, or another high-growth environment.

  • A track record of owning a go-to-market motion or product line end to end, rollout through adoption, within a defined scope.

  • You've been handed vague "go make this work" instructions, then built a solution that resonated with stakeholders and customers.

  • Experience working cross-functionally with Product, PMM, Client Success, Sales, Analytics, Legal, or Pricing.

  • Comfort translating product and pricing strategy into practical, field-ready execution.

  • Solid analytical instincts: you use adoption and performance data to decide what to do next, not just to report what happened.

  • Clear, action-oriented writing and speaking.

  • You do your best work in ambiguity and move fast without waiting to be told the approach.

  • Familiarity with merchant, payments, or fintech ecosystems is a must-have.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
