Meta is losing its longtime head of infrastructure
· Technology · TechCrunch
Meta s longtime head of infrastructure and co-head of engineering, Santosh Janardhan, is stepping down from his role. Dave Brown, who spent 19 years at Amazon focusing on compute, cloud, and AI, has been brought in to replace him. Janardhan originally joined Meta in 2009 and helped guide the firm through a period of massive growth. He will remain at Meta temporarily to assist with the transition and move into an advisory role on Meta Compute. The departure follows a recent surge in infrastructure investments as Meta scales its operations to keep pace with competitors in the artificial intelligence race.
Why it matters
