Johny Srouji Taking Over as Apple's Chief Hardware Officer as John Ternus Transitions to CEO

[MacRumors]

Apple's Senior Vice President of Hardware Technologies Johny Srouji is set to take on an expanded role as Apple's Chief Hardware Officer as John Ternus transitions to his role as Apple's next CEO.

Srouji is going to lead Hardware Engineering, reporting to Ternus. Current Apple CEO Tim Cook said that Srouji has been pivotal in Apple's transition to Apple silicon.

Johny is one of the most talented people I have ever had the privilege to work with. He has played a singular role in driving Apple's silicon strategy, and his influence has been felt deeply not just inside the company, but across the industry. He has always led his organization with remarkable deftness and judgment, and time and again, his team has delivered breakthrough innovations that have transformed our products. We are incredibly fortunate to have him as Apple's chief hardware officer.

Srouji is well-known as Apple's chip lead, and he has overseen the development of Apple silicon chips for the Mac. Apple's hardware engineering team is responsible for all of Apple's hardware products, and Srouji will lead everything from product design to system engineering to reliability and durability testing.

Absolutely the right man for the job, speaking as a former Apple employee. His work on Apple Silicon has been fantastic.

Finally, he gets to leave his carefully curated lab.

This is all great news! Apple isn't grasping at straws or desperately reaching out into the wider industry trying to fill a gap. They've still got the homegrown talent in their own pipeline to shepherd the company into a bright future. It'll be interesting to see how they deal with the supply chain crisis, but if anybody knows how to squeeze more performance out of silicon, it's Srouji.

amazing talent, well done on a great move

Always good to see Johny Srouji presenting new M-series chips (especially Max and Ultra versions) at Apple's new product events.

Well earned Johny!! I am excited for this next era of .

 

[Starfia]

We love rumours.

Wow i look forward to apple's next phase. Tim did a good job and made apple extremely wealthy under his watch but wonder what a change in vision/leadership will bring.

 

[RumorConsumer]

LITERALLY NOTHING COULD MAKE ME HAPPIER.

 

[Kylo83]

His talent is insane, and Israel has a lot of great tech minds, so he will be amazing with apple 🙂

So we know the hardware is in good hands, but what about the software? 🤔

Disgruntled Craig? 🙂

 

[19callum93]

Did he get this job because he threatened to leave? 🤔

 

[TigerNike23]

Disgruntled Craig? 🙂

Srouji’s had more hits lately than Craig.

Apple's new leadership shaping up! Great!

Ternus as CEO

Sirouji in Hardware

Federighi in Software

Lemay in design

Now I just want to read about Eddy Cue's and Joz's retirement.

Federighi is terrible in software, iOS is a joke

 

[anakinfan8]

He's been killing it with Apple Silicon. Excited for what he can come up with next for other products!

 

[turbineseaplane]

This is phenomenal news.

I would love to see Hair Force One retiring

 

[Dmoney77]

What a Monday!!!! Excellent news!

 

[257Loner]

Johny Srouji deserves to be the Chief Hardware Officer. Apple Silicon is second to none in mobile. Although it looks like Nvidia will give Apple some competition with its N1 laptop chip as well as the fact that Nvidia is TSMC's only client that monopolizes more of their production capacity than Apple.

 

[SouthernApple]

Another one of them?

Anyways, He's only a few years younger than Tim. Odd choice.

 

[mpetrides]

Srouji and Ternus are both fantastic choices. And I love the fact that Tim Cook will still be around to act as liason with the policymakers he expended so much effort to gain their trust (and YES, to play footsie with the Orange Menace to keep AAPL off his target range).

Right, get the car out!😂
