Database firm MongoDB said President and CEO Chirantan “CJ” Desai resigned
effective immediately to join Meta Platforms in a senior executive role. The
board appointed former CEO Dev Ittycheria as interim president and CEO; he
previously held those roles from 2014–2025 and served as an active executive
director over the past year. The board has opened a search for a permanent
successor. MongoDB shares fell about 15% in U.S. pre-market trading.
