Mark Zuckerberg's sister, Randi (second from right), seen here moderating a panel at CA World 2011 in Las Vegas, tweets that more family members work for Google than Facebook now that her younger sister's firm has been bought by the search-engine giant.

Talk about awkward, it looks like Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's younger sister, Arielle Zuckerberg, is now a Google employee.

According to Arielle's blog, she is a junior product manager for the social media marketing firm Wildfire, which Google acquired Tuesday.

Zuckerberg's older sister, Randi, worked for Facebook from 2005 to 2011 and is currently a producer for the reality TV show Silicon Valley, which will air on Bravo, a sister network of CNBC.

Randi tweeted about her sister Arielle's new employer Tuesday and also hinted that another Zuckerberg family member may also work for Google.

"Congrats Wildfire! There are officially now more Zuckerberg family members working for Google than Facebook! #awkward ;)" Randi said in a tweet.
