Last month, Apple announced a series of major leadership changes, including that John Ternus will take over as Apple CEO effective September 1. At the same time, Apple also elevated Johny Srouji into a broader role as the company’s chief hardware officer.
Bloomberg now reports that Srouji is making a series of changes to “speed up work on future devices.”
In addition to speeding up product development, Srouji’s goal is to “better integrate teams working on in-house silicon with those creating products.”
Mark Gurman has the details on the biggest change:
In the biggest shift, Srouji is changing management of product design — a function that involves engineering the look, feel and main capabilities of the company’s devices. That responsibility is moving from Kate Bergeron, a veteran Apple vice president, to two of her longtime deputies: Shelly Goldberg and Dave Pakula.
