Data Foundations and Infrastructure Manager

Job description

About the Team Data Foundations & Infrastructure (Data Foundations & Infrastructure) is a newly established team within Workforce Strategy & Insights (Workforce Strategy & Insights), responsible for owning and delivering data foundations and scalable support for reporting, analytics, and AI-readiness across WSI and for People@ at scale. We partner closely with Workforce Planning and Headcount Management teams, People Analytics (workforce insights and engagement), and enterprise stakeholders to ensure that workforce data powers executive decision-making across Meta. This role will lead two critical pods within DFI: AI Enablement: Develop, evaluate, and productionalize AI agents that scale analyst impact and deliver trusted, intelligent insights across workforce management domains. Data Infrastructure and Automation Tools: Build, maintain, and modernize scalable data pipelines, automation tooling, and access management to revamp operations for efficiency and AI readiness. The Role We are looking for a Senior Analytics Manager to lead the data foundations and AI capabilities that workforce intelligence at Meta runs on — owning both the pipelines and automation tooling that produce our data and the AI agents that consume it. This is a leadership role at the intersection of data engineering, AI productionalization, and workforce analytics — reporting directly to the Director of DFI. You will manage two established pods, each with an experienced pod lead, and own the strategy that connects them: building pipelines and automation optimized for agent consumption, and building the agents that turn them into trusted insights. You'll set technical direction and operating model, modernize legacy pipelines and consolidate self-service tooling, and partner deeply across People, Infrastructure & Engineering (PIE), Data Governance, Workforce Management, People Analytics, and Finance. This is a net-new role with significant latitude to shape the operating model and technical direction of both pods — with direct visibility to VP+ leadership and company-wide impact on how Meta plans and manages its 70,000+ person workforce.
