The upper ranks at Facebook are undergoing more changes, as longtime chief technology officer Mike Schroepfer will transition to become the company’s first senior fellow at some point in 2022, to be succeeded as CTO by Facebook Reality Labs vice president Andrew Bosworth.
Schroepfer joined Facebook as vp of engineering in August 2008, ascending to the role of CTO in March 2013.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a Newsroom post Wednesday, “(Schroepfer) has played a critical role in almost everything we’ve done—from building and scaling our teams to mentoring many of our key leaders, and from helping us develop new technologies like AI and VR to operating our infrastructure and business services at global scale … As Schrep transitions out of the CTO role sometime next year, he will become Facebook’s first senior fellow.
