Meta is looking for a forward thinking engineering leader with technical skills in the domain of production network operations and OEM vendor management to join the Edge and Network Services (ENS) Operations organization. In this role, you will lead initiatives to improve efficiency, reliability, and risk management via process, systems, and data in one of the largest scale networks in the world. You thrive in a fast moving operations organization and enjoy digging into complex operational and reliability challenges in order to implement process and technical system solutions at a global scale.
