Product Risk Program Manager

**Summary:**

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.
