Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey unveiled a comprehensive reorganization, highlighted by general manager of video and former Periscope CEO Kayvon Beykpour succeeding GM, consumer product and engineering group Ed Ho as product lead.

Beykpour becomes the sixth head of product at the social network since early 2014.

Dorsey announced the moves in two tweets, here and here, and he said of Ho, “As many of you know, Ed Ho went on leave in May to recharge, and while he was on leave, his wife’s mother unexpectedly passed away.
