Jason Goldman, Twitter’s VP of product, has announced at the LeWeb Conference that he is stepping down from his role and instead is taking on an advisory role at the company.
Goldman says that he announced his departure to his team on Friday. He is not leaving for any specific company or project, but didn’t explain exactly why he is leaving the company. He did mention that the discussions about his departure began after Evan Williams stepped down as CEO of the company.
Goldman has been Twitter’s VP of product since he joined the company over three years ago. Previously he worked with Twitter co-founders Biz Stone and Evan Williams on Blogger before it was acquired by Google. He stayed on for several years before rejoining Williams and Stone at the microblogging startup.
Twitter has not yet chosen a replacement; Goldman will be helping the company choose his successor.
