Job Description

We are looking for an experienced UXR leader who is passionate about tackling some of our toughest challenges across a broad scope that extends from recruiting, to career growth and performance, to customer care and foundations (i.e., around creation, discovery and consumption of content). We seek to bring next generation products to our internal workflows to drive connection, collaboration, and efficiency at scale.Getting work done at Meta isn’t simple or straightforward. Metamates spend a disproportionate amount of time on “work around work”, taking away their ability to focus on their core work. Much of this “work around work” has to do with a highly fragmented ecosystem of products that Metamates use every day to manage our careers, our lives outside of our careers, our teams, and to create, gain and share context, find answers, and stay up to date on what's happening at Meta. For example, there are 35+ content tools in our ecosystem of products that support creation, organization, distribution and consumption of content (such as Wiki, Knowledge Base, Workplace, Google Docs, Quip and others). A few of EP investments include efforts to make finding the right content effortless through intelligent search and contextualized discovery as well as GenAI solutions to help create, summarize and improve the quality of content that Metamates create. On this team we tackle some of the most complex research problems to gain deeper insights into how we attract and grow our talent at scale, with the right products to unlock productivity, collaboration and skill development. We strive to contribute new ideas to products that will impact all metamates and the impact we bring to our X billion customers.We are looking for UX Research Manager to lead our People and Horizontals (Care and Foundations) team with research, communication and people management skills to drive critical aspects of our understanding and product strategy.
