At Affirm, we’re proud to have a strong Veteran community. In honor of that community and Veterans Day, we want to recognize one of our Veterans@ Affirm ERG members, James Sharpe. James is a Staff Technical Account Manager on the Enterprise Team, helping support the growth of Affirm. In addition, James has been an integral part of the ERG and a driving force behind initiatives to benefit our Veteran-owned business community. "I've really enjoyed being part of the Veterans ERG which has helped me connect with other Veterans throughout Affirm, especially in areas where I'm not typically involved,” shared James. “It's so helpful to have a group with a shared military background and combined expertise on nearly any topic at the company." #VeteransDay #careers #usarmy

Veterans Day serves as a reminder of the sacrifices our Veterans have made, the values they've upheld, and the incredible strength they've displayed in protecting our freedoms.
