Microsoft has created a new engineering organization aimed at accelerating AI infrastructure and software development within the company.
According to Bloomberg, Jay Parikh, previously VP and global head of engineering at Meta, will lead the new division. He’ll report to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and oversee groups, including the company’s AI platform and developer teams.
Parikh worked on technical infrastructure and data center projects at Meta. Before joining Microsoft in October, he was appointed the CEO of cloud security startup Lacework.
The new org, called CoreAI — Platform and Tools, is actually a combination of Microsoft’s existing Dev Div and AI platform teams, The Verge reports, along with some employees in the Office of the CTO division. CoreAI effectively rejiggers Microsoft’s developer teams to ensure AI remains a top priority.
In an internal memo published on Microsoft’s blog, Nadella said that Microsoft’s focus for the coming year will be “model-forward” applications that “reshape all application categories.”
