GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignation
Microsoft is folding GitHub into its new CoreAI division after CEO Thomas Dohmke resigned to become a startup founder. Following its separate run since the $7.5 billion acquisition, GitHub will no longer operate independently, and no CEO will replace Dohmke. The move places GitHub under former Meta exec Jay Parikh’s AI-focused team—aiming to build an “agent factory” platform. Dohmke will stay through 2025 to guide the transition.
