Capacity Engineer, Infrastructure Data Governance

Meta is seeking a Data Governance Engineer to build and scale data governance across infrastructure planning and supply chain organizations and systems. This role will define and operate how critical infrastructure data is governed end to end, from intake and ownership through quality, controls, and adoption, so teams can make high-quality decisions, operate efficiently, and execute reliably at Meta scale.We will do this primarily by building software, mathematical models, and automated tracking of key performance metrics that make data quality, lineage, and control health measurable rather than aspirational. You will translate ambiguous governance needs into clear technical requirements, operating models, roadmaps, milestones, and measurable outcomes.This role is very cross-functional and provides an opportunity to work with supply chain partners, infrastructure engineering, planning, data center, networking, data science, analytics, finance, and operations teams to power the rapid growth of Meta's products. This is a senior individual-contributor role. The right candidate brings demonstrated technical judgment in evaluating tradeoffs across data systems, governance models, or infrastructure decisions, structured program leadership, clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to convey technical concepts, program status, and recommendations to diverse stakeholders, and the ability to influence partner teams and stakeholders across multiple infrastructure organizations without relying on authority.

Capacity Engineer, Infrastructure Data Governance Responsibilities:

• Own the end-to-end governance process for a major domain of critical infrastructure data including intake, ownership, definitions, quality expectations, review cadences, decision rights, escalation paths, change management, and compliance monitoring
• Develop and analyze business, manufacturing, and logistics data to identify governance gaps, source-of-truth conflicts, and data defects that degrade supply chain and capacity decisions
• Establish durable operating mechanisms that clarify data ownership, stewardship responsibilities, source-of-truth expectations, approval flows, audit trails, exception handling, and accountability across teams
• Drive cross-team adoption of governance standards and work with partner teams to ensure compliance with agreed internal processes, quality bars, and operating rhythms
• Contribute to end to end supply chain processes, methodologies, and data to deliver an executable and optimized supply plan grounded in trustworthy inputs
• Manage and resolve critical escalations and data exceptions across the supply chain
• Identify technical dependencies, risks, sequencing constraints, rollout criteria, adoption blockers, and measurable success indicators across multiple teams
• Work cross-functionally to define problem statements, collect data, build analytical models, and make recommendations that drive change
• Communicate program strategy, status, risks, decisions, compliance health, and impact clearly to technical teams, cross-functional partners, and stakeholders
• Create and maintain high-quality artifacts, including governance charters, technical program plans, roadmaps, ownership and RACI models, dependency trackers, risk and mitigation plans, rollout plans, compliance dashboards, and leadership updates
• Improve how Meta executes infrastructure data governance by simplifying processes, scaling repeatable patterns, and mentoring peers and cross-functional partners

Minimum Qualifications:

• 8+ years of experience in operations research, industrial engineering, supply chain management, systems engineering, technical program leadership, or related field
• Experience delivering technical programs or products from inception to launch across multiple teams

Preferred Qualifications:

• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
• Experience defining metrics, control health indicators, adoption measures, compliance dashboards, or review mechanisms for technical governance programs
• Experience in infrastructure operations and technical infrastructure knowledge
• Experience interfacing with and establishing relationships with management at suppliers or customers
• Experience communicating and translating technical and non-technical requirements for cross-functional stakeholders
• Experience working with cross-functional teams
• Experience managing ambiguity, and a track record of learning new tools, domains, or methods to address evolving challenges
• Experience mentoring engineers and raising the quality of program execution
• Experience influencing partner teams across infrastructure, engineering, planning, supply chain, data center, networking, operations, analytics, and finance organizations
• Experience working with distributed systems at scale
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• 3+ years of experience in coding/scripting languages such as Python, R, Java, C, C++, PHP
• Experience with source-of-truth strategy, master data management practices, data quality frameworks, metric definitions, lineage, stewardship models, or data operating models
• Experience transforming business systems and models and achieving results relative to goals, including identifying opportunities to challenge existing approaches and proposing data-driven alternatives
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
• Experience driving programs across centralized platforms and federated business or infrastructure teams
• 10+ years of technical, manufacturing operations, or technical program leadership experience in the hardware systems or infrastructure industry
