Facebook Hires and Departures: Platform Ops, Sales, Recruiting, Engineering and More

Facebook made hires this week in everything from its intern program, sales, to recruiting, platform operations and more according to posts on LinkedIn and information removed from its Careers Page. Posts removed from the Careers Page -- which strongly suggest that the positions had been filled -- included engineers and data center technicians, while LinkedIn showed mostly sales positions. Most significantly, top developer and long-time Facebook employee Joe Hewitt announced on Friday that he was leaving the company. He has been there since his startup, Parakey, was acquired in 2007. Well-known beforehand for his work on the Mozilla Firefox browser and developer bug-tracking tool Firebug, he made a wide range of contributions at Facebook, including single-handedly creating the first versions of its hit iPhone app. In a personal blog post, he says that he's looking to create more tools for developers and designers, and hints that what he does could be mobile-related.
