Meta Infrastructure Chief Santosh Janardhan to Step Down in Early 2027
Meta Platforms' longtime infrastructure chief Santosh Janardhan will step down in early 2027 after more than 17 years with the company. Janardhan, who also serves as co-head of engineering, played a key role in building Meta's data centers, hardware, networks, and custom silicon programs. He will remain through the first quarter of 2027 to support the transition to Dave Brown, a former Amazon Web Services senior vice president who joined Meta earlier this year. The leadership change coincides with Meta's increased investments in AI and infrastructure.
