The role involves managing the triage and escalation process for novel or ambiguous product risks while coordinating across legal, policy, and engineering teams. You will translate complex technical concepts into structured recommendations and drive improvements in risk review workflows using AI-integrated tools.
As a Specialized Assessment Product Risk Program Manager (SA PRPM), you will be a critical driver in Meta’s risk management and product integrity efforts. You’ll sit at the intersection of product, legal, and regulations — triaging and supporting risk review for new products and features that challenge company policy, introduce novel or untested risk, or require specialized scrutiny.
Your work will shape how Meta assesses high-risk product decisions, often in fast-moving or ambiguous contexts. You’ll help guide cross-functional partners through escalation workflows, support aligned decision-making, and ensure that the right voices are in the room to evaluate complex tradeoffs. You’ll operate with a high degree of independence—bringing a broad perspective to problems, exercising independent judgment, and contributing to team-level goals for cross-functional risk review. The ideal person will have exceptional judgment and the ability to work across a range of variable, often ambiguous risk factors.
This is a senior individual-contributor role. Success means managing and delivering programs for a loosely defined area of work, aligning solutions across teams, and advising cross-functional partners as a subject-matter expert on complex matters in your area.
Responsibilities
Support and manage the triage and escalation process for product risks that are novel, ambiguous, or policy-challenging.
Coordinate across Legal, Policy, Data Strategy, Engineering, and Product to ensure high-risk reviews are surfaced and addressed with the appropriate depth and speed; network with and appropriately involve key stakeholders, persuading diverse audiences to drive progress.
Translate complex technical and product concepts into structured assessments and recommendations.
Facilitate decision-making through risk-based frameworks that support both product velocity and compliance; seek clarity on goals and priorities so work can move forward quickly, and escalate as needed.
Ensure escalations are documented, tracked, and resolved with transparency and consistency, maintaining appropriate documentation and timely follow-through.
Identify gaps or breakdowns in current escalation/review processes and drive improvements in workflows, guidance, or tooling; actively experiment and seek opportunities to simplify work through AI-integrated workflows.
Help Meta meet its legal and regulatory obligations and make decisions that reflect our mission, values, and principles, informed by risk reviews and compliance guidance.
