About the role

Senior technical leadership role on Meta's Central Integrity team, focusing on identifying and disrupting actors and coordinated networks that threaten platform integrity across Meta’s family of apps. Responsible for multi-year technical strategy, scaling integrity lifecycles, and leading cross-functional initiatives to protect users at a global scale.

Responsibilities

  • Own the multi-year technical strategy for tackling actors intent on violating our integrity policies across the Family of Apps, communicate it clearly to audiences ranging from individual contributors to executive leadership.
  • Evolve and scale the full E2E integrity lifecycle across different violations and products and establish extensible technical foundations, coding standards, and architectural patterns that improve consistency and delivery velocity.
  • Work closely with product and analytics partners to define how we measure success and failure through trusted metrics.
  • Establish technical direction in our most highly pressured and ambiguous areas, where adversaries are constantly adapting, helping the engineering team to establish sustainable and agile approaches, including where they span organisational boundaries.
  • Partner and effectively communicate with teams across Meta to navigate complex technical trade-offs between user protection, product friction and topline business outcomes.
  • Integrate integrity solutions into new products, including newly launched apps such as Muse so they are safe, trusted and can scale without integrity concerns.
  • Lead cross-functional execution of org-wide technical initiatives, aligning stakeholders, managing dependencies, and driving outcomes against defined milestones and metrics.
  • Develop and operationalise engineering excellence programs including reliability standards, performance guardrails and quality frameworks adopted across teams.
  • Identify systemic issues and recurring failure patterns across the team and broader organisation, developing invariants and architectural improvements that prevent entire classes of problems and inefficiencies.
  • Recruit and develop engineers with skills critical to the team's success, role-modeling technical and cultural values that strengthen the broader engineering community.
  • Mentor engineers across the organisation by providing feedback, coaching and technical guidance on the most challenging system problems and collaborations.
