Facebook to open engineering office in Cambridge

Social media giant Facebook is coming home — at least with one office.

The social network, founded at Harvard by Mark Zuckerberg and others, announced this morning it will open an engineering office in Cambridge, its fifth official engineering office.

Officially called Facebook Boston, the site will be led by Ryan Mack, a Facebook engineer who worked on Timeline, one of Facebook's recent signature products.

In a release, Mack said the company faces infrastructure and engineering challenges as they try to expand their user base further.

"We're going to need even more help to meet those new challenges, so we've decided to start building a new engineering team in Boston," he said.

Mack said the decision to come back to Boston and Cambridge was an easy one.

"Boston was an easy choice. The tech community here is world-class, from the incredible academic institutions to the vibrant startup ecosystem to the bevy of global companies who have teams here," he said.

Mack said the team will be small, but will be hiring.

The departure of Facebook, which moved to California when Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard, has been frequently cited by Massachusetts legislators and tech leaders as a prime example of the work that needs to be done by the state to entice the best start-ups to stay.
