Meta names Alex Schultz first chief data officer

Meta said the leadership changes will help manage AI analytics globally as the company increases AI spending to as much as $145 billion this year.

  • On Wednesday, Meta appointed Alex Schultz as its first Chief Data Officer and promoted Denise Moreno to Chief Marketing Officer, both reporting to Meta Chief Operating Officer Javier Olivan.
  • Moreno, a 17-year Meta veteran, previously served as global SVP of consumer marketing and growth, most recently helping Threads surpass 500 million users.
  • Schultz will oversee global AI analytics and strengthen Meta's "context layer" of AI systems, saying "My focus in this new role will be helping transform how Meta learns and makes decisions in the AI era."
  • By creating a dedicated Chief Data Officer role, Meta brings analytics directly into executive leadership rather than treating it as a support function under another C-suite executive.
  • Meta projects spending $145 billion on AI infrastructure this year, representing a significant portion of Big Tech's more than $700 billion total outlay on the technology.
