I'm sure a Board member, Lila, or Erik will correct me if I am mistaken, but my understanding is that there is internal agreement at Board level that the Product side of the org needs some systemic changes, that Lila was chosen with the goal of making those changes, and that some changes are already happening.

That said, welcome Damon! Certainly, it's a pretty tough job that you've stepped into, but I'm optimistic that a fresh approach and fresh eyes will assist the engineering team in pushing through the present difficulties with software deployments.
Which present difficulties are you referring to? If it's issues with feature/bug prioritization and resource allocation, it's probably more the Product side of the house, not the Engineering side of the house, that would need a refresh, I think. That's my vague understanding, anyway.
