Agrawal joined Twitter as an engineer ten years ago and was named Chief Technology Officer in 2018. “He has been my first choice for a long time because of how well he understands the company and its requirements. Parag has been at the helm of every critical decision that has aided in the turnaround of this company “Dorsey stated.
