The management reshuffle is an attempt at streamlining the bureaucracy that’s sometimes bogged down Google even as it became the world’s most valuable Internet company.
Google Inc. named as senior vice presidents Andy Rubin, its top mobile executive; Salar Kamangar, the head of YouTube; and Sundar Pichai, who’s in charge of the Chrome browser and operating system effort.
Joining them are Alan Eustace, senior vice president for engineering and research; Vic Gundotra, who leads social ventures; and Susan Wojcicki, who heads ads.
Page, co-founder of Google, took over from Eric Schmidt, who stays as executive chairman.
