CNBC coverage:

【引用 @dwehner】I announced earlier this week that I am leaving Meta. I am deeply grateful to Mark Zuckerberg for showing what a truly founder-led company can achieve. I am incredibly optimistic for Meta’s future.

At Meta, I was able to witness the most exciting opportunities in enterprise AI. That’s why today, I’m announcing that I will be joining Fireworks as CFO. I am thrilled to be joining a founder-led growth company where I can roll up my sleeves and put my experience to work.

Fireworks has the right mission for the moment. Companies will use AI to build on what makes them distinctive: their data and expertise. Specialized intelligence gives them a way to capture those advantages and own their “alpha.” Open models offer price points that allow the technology to have the greatest impact. Fireworks is building the platform to make all of this possible.

I’ve known and respected Lin @lqiao for a long time. As I’ve spent more time with her and the people at Fireworks, I’ve become increasingly bullish on what they are building. There’s a remarkable depth of technical talent here, coupled with a very practical focus on what customers need.

I see AI as the most consequential technology shift of my lifetime. I’m excited to get to work and help build a business at the center of it.
