(Reuters) -Tesla’s head of the Cybertruck program, Siddhant Awasthi, said late on Sunday that he is leaving the U.S. electric vehicle maker after more than eight years with the company.

Awasthi, who began his Tesla journey as an intern, most recently oversaw the Cybertruck program from its engineering phase to large-scale production, leading efforts in product strategy, quality enhancements, and supply chain management, according to his LinkedIn profile.

In addition to heading the Cybertruck initiative, he also took on leadership of Tesla’s Model 3 program last July.

“Eight years ago, when I started as an intern, I never dreamed I’d one day have the opportunity to lead the Cybertruck program and bring it to reality,” Awasthi wrote in a LinkedIn post late Sunday.
