In a Twitter thread that went viral, Halli Thorleifsson was asked by Elon Musk what work he had done for the firm.
Shortly after that exchange Mr Thorleifsson said that Twitter's Human Resources department had contacted him and said that he had been fired.
"I have a few good work years left in me so this was a way to wrap up my company, and set up myself and my family for years when I won't be able to do as much."Mr Thorleifsson is worried that Mr Musk will not honour the contract he signed with Twitter when he sold them his company. Last month, Elon Musk appeared to fire another 200 Twitter employees. It means that Twitter now has just over 2,000 workers - down from approximately 7,500 in October.
