After being made the CEO of Google earlier this year due to the restructuring of the company under Alphabet, Sundar Pichai has made his first series of executive shuffles.

Pichai, who earlier used to oversee the development of Chrome OS and Android, has promoted Hiroshi Lockheimer from the VP of Android to senior VP of Android, Chrome OS and Chromecast.

Additionally, the CEO has also promoted Neal Mohan as SVP of display and video advertising. He was previously the VP of the said section in Google. Another notable change made by Pichai is making Phillip Schindler the SVP of Global Sales and Operations of the company.

Hiroshi Lockheimer was among the presentators at the Nexus 6P and 5X launch event held late last month, and he also revealed quite a bit of information about the handsets in a Reddit IAmA later on.
