More Twitter shake-ups
Twitter will undergo a reorganization of key leadership roles under new CEO Parag Agrawal, the company announced Friday.
The changes, which were laid out in a company-wide email, follow Twitter co-founder and CEO Jack Dorsey announcing earlier this week he would be stepping down from the top spot, putting Agrawal in charge of the social media platform as it seeks to reach lofty user and revenue growth goals.
Who’s out: As part of the shake-up, head of engineering Michael Montano and chief design officer Dantley Davis will be stepping down and leaving the company by the end of the year.
Twitter spokesperson Lauren Alexander confirmed the reorganization news. The changes were first reported by The Washington Post.
The company also detailed the changes in a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing.
Montano will be leaving the company after more than a decade. He joined Twitter in 2011. Davis came to Twitter in 2019, after previous product design stints at Netflix and Facebook.
Who’s moving: The restructuring will create a General Manager model for the consumer, revenue and core tech divisions, which will be led by Kayvon Beykpour, Bruce Falck and Nick Caldwell, respectively, Twitter said in the filing.
The three general managers will lead all core teams across engineering, product management, design and research, according to the filing.
