Ambassadors and their US counterparts would be responsible for international relations, but I’m not sure they’d be directly involved in day-to-day staffing levels?
Directly, probably HR would be the person in charge or hiring someone if they’re in country, but HR is not going to be calling Washington to backfill empty roles.
That’s what the head of the Embassy would be doing, if enough people raised a fuss.
The State Department sends people on 3-5 year tours, so they might have a long wait to backfill a role.

Thank you so much! Let me write to Kneedler. May do a FOIA request later too
