To clarify: Jason is stepping down into a CTO role.

This makes sense. Like he said in the post, as a company grows, the CEO role tends to shrink farther and farther from the technical nitty-gritty.

And to further clarify, the choice use of the word "replaced" in the OP-submitted headline implies Jason was pushed aside or something, which is very much not the case.

This is something that has been in the works for some time, even before Heather was brought on as COO in the Spring.
