Dave Wehner is stepping down from his role as chief strategy officer at Meta. He will transition to the position of chief financial officer at Fireworks, a company specializing in artificial intelligence infrastructure.
The move follows a significant funding milestone for the startup. In July, Fireworks reached a valuation of $17.5 billion.
Wehner leaves Meta after holding a key executive position within the technology firm. His new role at the AI-focused startup marks a shift in his professional focus toward the infrastructure sector of the industry.
