Meta taps MongoDB CEO Desai to drive enterprise AI push
Meta Platforms has appointed MongoDB CEO Chirantan Desai to lead its new enterprise AI push. Desai's new role as chief enterprise platform officer will see him focus on turning Meta's AI stack into products and services for corporate customers. Shares of MongoDB fell 18% in early trading on Monday following the news, as Desai is leaving after less than a year in the position.
Desai will report directly to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. MongoDB, a database software provider, will continue to be led by interim CEO Dev Ittycheria while it searches for a permanent replacement.
