GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke announced on Monday that he’s stepping down from his role. Dohmke will remain at the Microsoft-owned company until the end of the year, after which he will depart to become “a founder again,” he wrote in a blog post.
Axios reports that Microsoft will not directly replace the position, and that GitHub leadership will now report to several Microsoft executives.
“With more than 1B repos and forks, and over 150 million developers, GitHub has never been stronger than it is today,” Dohmke wrote. “We have seen more open-source projects with more contributions every year. AI projects have doubled in the last year alone. And our presence in companies of any size is unmatched in the market.”
The move comes as GitHub is facing growing competition from companies like Google and Cursor over AI tools for programmers.
