Twitter's vice president of product, Michael Sippey, has announced his flight from the company after serving it for two years.

Sippey will be stepping down to an advisory role at the company before leaving.

"Over the past few weeks I've talked with Dick [Costolo] and Ali [Rowghani] about what I want next in my career, and what Twitter needs at this stage of its life. And I've decided that it's time for me to move on," Sippey posted on his blog after sending the same in an email to Twitter employees.

Sippey also tweeted about it, "Today I'm transitioning into an advisory role at Twitter. It's been an amazing couple of years."

Sippey did not share about his future plans but, in his post, he said he will be helping Twitter to find his replacement and will help the company's product team on their roadmap over the next year. "Starting today I'm transitioning to an advisory role. I'll be helping with product strategy, providing input on the great work the team has lined up for 2014, and helping Ali find a new head of product," Sippey said on his blog. "After that, I'm excited to go figure out what's next. I hear this Internet thing has legs." He also posted a fitting Vine video that showed him literally walking away.

Sippey has played an active role at Twitter's consumer product and design initiatives and was also involved in the acquisitions like Tweetdeck and Vine that lets users capture and share short looping videos. However, according to reports, Sippey's exit might have been the result of some discord with COO Ali Rowghani, who became his boss last year.

In a response to Sippey's tweet that announced his departure, Rowghani tweeted, "No one has shown more passion for Twitter than you. Thank you for your amazing contributions and your continued friendship & counsel."

Sippey's exit from the company comes just a day after reports regarding Twitter accepting the payments directly through tweets floated around. Recently, Twitter, which lets users post their thoughts for 140 characters at a time or less, redesigned its web homepage and also introduced a radical update to its mobile apps.
