Meta is seeking a Privacy Engineer to join our Privacy Red Team, a specialized function dedicated to proactively identifying and exposing privacy risks across Meta's family of apps and services before they can impact the people who use our products. In this role, you will conduct adversarial privacy assessments, simulate real-world privacy attack scenarios, and drive systemic improvements to how Meta designs and builds privacy-protective systems. You will operate at the intersection of offensive security thinking and privacy engineering, partnering with product, legal, policy, and engineering teams to surface and remediate privacy vulnerabilities at scale. This is a high-impact, technically demanding role for an experienced privacy engineer who thinks like an adversary and builds like an engineer.

Qualifications:
