Crowdfunding startup Kickstarter is restructuring its senior leadership—parting ways with seven of its executives or senior leaders and promoting two people within its C-Suite, according to three people with knowledge of the matter and independently verified by Fortune.

Kickstarter’s chief legal officer, chief strategy officer, vice president of product, and vice president of creator and backer success are among the people leaving, Fortune has learned. As part of the changes, Kickstarter’s vice president of brand marketing, Courtney Brown Warren, was promoted to chief marketing officer, and Mahesh Guruswamy, Kickstarter’s chief technology officer, was promoted to chief product and technology officer.
