About the role

Senior policy leader responsible for Meta's legislative and regulatory strategy on AI models and frontier AI, with global remit and external-facing engagement with legislators, regulators, and coalitions.

Responsibilities

  • Own the frontier AI legislative and regulatory portfolio. Anticipate, track, and analyze legislative and regulatory developments on AI models and frontier AI across the US Congress, US state legislatures, and international jurisdictions; distill them into clear, decision-ready guidance for internal partners
  • Develop Meta's positions. Set substantive policy positions on frontier AI legislation issues, including model evaluations and safety frameworks, transparency and content provenance, open source and model release policy, agentic systems, and incident reporting, and drive them to alignment across a complex internal stakeholder set
  • Build and execute legislative strategy. Design advocacy strategies with clear objectives, target venues, coalition partners, and measures of success; drive them through to outcomes
  • Draft and negotiate legislative text. Produce redlines, amendments, and model language on frontier AI proposals, and lead engagement with legislative offices, committee staff, and drafters on the Hill and in state and foreign legislatures in partnership with our Regional Policy and External Affairs teams
  • Counsel product on compliance. Partner with product, research, engineering, and legal teams building frontier models to translate regulatory obligations into product requirements, and translate product and technical realities back into policy positions and advocacy asks
  • Brief executives and senior leadership. Prepare and deliver written briefings and verbal recommendations to senior leaders and executives on frontier AI policy developments and the decisions they require, making clear recommendations under uncertainty and with incomplete information
  • Lead regulatory engagement. Own responses to formal consultations, calls for evidence, and requests for information from regulators, agencies, and standards bodies, and represent Meta in those processes
  • Represent Meta externally. Serve as a company representative in meetings with legislators and their staff, regulators, agencies, civil society, academics, and industry coalitions and trade associations, and speak at public convenings and closed-door briefings
  • Collaborate cross-functionally. Work closely with Legal, Communications, Regulatory Readiness, Competition, Government Affairs, and regional policy teams to build and land aligned positions
  • Build scalable frameworks. Create durable analytical frameworks, playbooks, and positions that other policy teams can apply to new proposals without starting from scratch

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience working on technology law or policy, in government, industry, private practice, civil society, or a combination
  • Demonstrated expertise in AI policy, with substantive depth on frontier AI models, including development, evaluation, deployment, and release, and on regulatory debates surrounding them
