Alex Warofka is a Human Rights Manager and Emerging Risks Lead at Meta with 11 years of experience blending technical rigor in data science and econometrics with deep expertise in business and human rights across digital platforms. He pioneers human rights due diligence for high-risk technologies—LLMs, multi-modal generative AI, AR/VR, and encryption—and led industry-first, fully disclosed HRIAs including work on Facebook’s role in Myanmar and end-to-end encryption. Alex directs real-time crisis response linking on-platform content to offline conflict in multiple countries, shapes transparency and government-request policies, and represents Meta in multi-stakeholder forums like the Global Network Initiative. With a multilingual, international academic background spanning Case Western, LSE, Peking, Kyoto, and UChicago, he combines field-based stakeholder engagement in Majority World contexts with hands-on analytics to translate complex risks into operational mitigations. An uncommon blend of empirical social science and product-focused human rights work makes him adept at aligning HRDD with emerging regulation and high-stakes leadership decisions.
