Meta plans infrastructure leadership handoff to former AWS executive Dave Brown
Image: Primary Meta infrastructure chief Santosh Janardhan will step down in early 2027 and hand operational leadership to former Amazon Web Services executive Dave Brown, according to a November 11 internal memo reported by AOL. Meta confirmed Janardhan's departure and said he would remain through the transition before taking an advisory role at Meta Compute.
Brown joined Meta in July 2026 after 19 years at Amazon. He will oversee operations within Meta Compute, sharing capital spending decisions with its co-leads. Meta expects 2026 capital expenditures of $135 billion to $145 billion; third-quarter free cash flow was negative $2.12 billion.
