Summary:
Global Response Operations (GRO) is Meta's frontline defense against threats to platform integrity, user safety, regulatory compliance, and advertiser support. The Response teams solve essential escalations, remediate the most critical issues, and respond to urgent risks and incidents. We respond when the stakes are highest: high-priority escalations that demand speed, precision, coordination, and judgement. We work closely with our partners to fix gaps in our platforms. Our mandate is to manage complex and novel situations that require special care across Meta's Family of Apps, all surfaces and domains, all issue @types and all user groups. We are transitioning to an agentic operating model where AI handles routine work and human experts focus on the cases, decisions, and system improvements that require judgment, creativity, and domain depth.You will own Meta's most complex, sensitive, and time-critical escalations, where AI reaches its limits and expert human judgment determines the outcome. Working across all Meta surfaces, products, and issue @types, you'll investigate and resolve high-stakes situations spanning civic concerns, entertainment events, advertiser integrity, regulatory risk, and AI product failures. You'll serve as a domain expert and workflow contributor by designing how humans and AI work together, critically evaluating AI outputs, encoding your expertise into systems that scale, and supporting others to do the same. You'll lead or contribute to pods that drive measurable operational improvement. This role requires experience navigating undefined problem spaces, reprioritizing work based on changing business needs, and leveraging AI tools to improve operational outcomes.This role requires review of content, issues and matters that can be offensive or disturbing, including but not limited to graphic violence, self-harm, hate speech, abuse, and sexually explicit material. Meta provides resources and support for employees who work with sensitive content. This role will require regular scheduled weekend and holiday on-call work, and some non-scheduled crisis intervention.
Required Skills:
Escalations Manager, Global Response Operations Responsibilities:
Response & Crisis Management*
Drive Meta's highest-priority escalations to resolution: from initial triage through investigation, cross-functional coordination, and final resolution, ensuring time-sensitive cases are mitigated within SLA and with minimal business or reputational impact
Conduct rigorous, multi-system investigations: connect signals across surfaces and stakeholders on complex or novel case @types (LLM hallucinations, AI agent misbehavior, deepfake/synthetic media, cross-platform integrity failures), producing root cause analysis and documentation that prevents recurrence
Coordinate across Policy, Legal, Engineering, Sales, Communications, Leadership, and other XFN: drive aligned response strategies on cases carrying reputational, legal, or business risk, translating complexity into clear decisions and accountable next steps
Synthesize and deliver executive-level communications: leverage AI to ensure accurate, actionable situational awareness reaches leadership and partners when it matters
Exercise judgment on unprecedented situations: make high-stakes calls and set precedent for continuous improvement
Work on-call shifts within a global team: maintain 24/7 readiness and operate effectively across time zones, delivering consistent quality and decision-making during high-priority escalations
Human + AI Orchestration*
Contribute to workflow performance in your domain: support end-to-end quality across human-in-the-loop and human-on-the-loop deployments, identifying when intervention is needed and flagging issues that affect automated outputs
Translate expert human judgment into encodable logic: convert tacit domain knowledge (policy interpretation, @contextual reasoning, edge case intuition) into explicit rules, prompts, and decision frameworks that AI systems can execute
Lead or contribute to sprints and pods that transform operations: drive measurable improvements in efficiency, effectiveness, and performance outcomes
Design and iterate on AI-assisted workflows (prompts, decision trees, runbooks, automations): increase team throughput, measured by reduced handling time, enhanced outcomes, or eliminated manual steps for recurring case patterns
Support peer development on judgment, AI tool mastery, and escalation calibration: share expertise through case reviews and real-time modeling, contributing to the team's collective capability
Conduct case quality reviews: identify patterns in errors and AI failures
implement corrections that raise the bar for the team
AI Judging and Design*
Critically evaluate AI-generated assessments, investigation outputs, and recommended actions: correct and document failure patterns, feeding structured improvements back into the system so accuracy improves over time
Identify when regulatory, policy, or operational @context changes require capability updates: proactively flag when existing automation rules, prompts, or decision logic have become stale due to external shifts, ensuring systems reflect current reality
Provide structured feedback on AI launches: deliver actionable recommendations for improvement based on operational experience
Design escalation logic, runbooks, and decision trees for AI systems: define how AI handles edge cases and when it routes to humans
Create and maintain AI prompts, playbooks, and evaluation rubrics: build the tooling layer that governs AI performance in your domain
Test and validate new AI capabilities before deployment: ensure quality and reliability before workflows go live
Design AI skills and capabilities to check and copilot human work: build manual and human-in-the-loop quality mechanisms into operational processes
Domain expertise & signal generation*
Develop and maintain deep domain expertise: stay current on evolving threats, platform dynamics, and policy or legal landscape to inform rapid decision-making
Surface emerging patterns, systemic issues, and root cause hypotheses: translate operational observations into strategic signals that drive action upstream
Monitor workflow health and flag performance drift: track whether automated systems in your domain continue to produce correct outcomes over time, surfacing degradation signals before errors compound
Document investigation methodologies and resolution approaches for novel case @types: build institutional knowledge that scales beyond individual expertise
Contribute to demand signal and operational improvement: identify volume drivers, capability gaps, and process inefficiencies that inform roadmap priorities
New Frontier Accountabilities*
Own investigation and resolution of escalations involving Meta's AI products, including LLM outputs, AI agents, and AI-generated content
Develop expertise in AI system failure modes: build pattern recognition for how and why AI systems produce harmful, inaccurate, or policy-violating outputs
Partner with XFN teams on AI-specific escalation protocols and intervention capabilities: shape how the company detects and responds to AI-driven incidents
Participate in AI red-teaming and stress testing exercises: build intuition for AI failure cases and contribute findings that strengthen guardrails
The work is interrupt-driven. You'll balance proactive improvement work with reactive escalation response, and the escalations take priority
This team actively uses AI tools in daily operations. You're expected to push the boundary of what AI can handle and know where human judgment must intervene
