Chief Engineering behind Intels hardware division leaves company

Chief Engineering behind Intels hardware division leaves company

The chief engineering (basically the number two in the company) officer of Intel, Venkata 'Murthy' Renduchintala, leaves the company on August 3rd. He was responsible for the 7nm chips division at Intel. That division is now being split up and will have managers who will report directly to CEO Bob Swan.

Developing the 7nm and 5nm process will from now on fall under the new Technology Development department, led by Mike Mayberry. Mayberry has been with Intel for 36 years (who will retire later this year). No specific reason for splitting up or leaving Renduchintala is given. However, with this step, the company says 'to improve focus and responsibility'.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 27, 2020 – Today, Intel CEO Bob Swan announced changes to the company’s technology organization and executive team to accelerate product leadership and improve focus and accountability in process technology execution. Effective immediately, the Technology, Systems Architecture and Client Group (TSCG) will be separated into the following teams, whose leaders will report directly to the CEO:

  • Technology Development, led by Dr. Ann Kelleher. An accomplished Intel leader, Kelleher has been head of Intel manufacturing, where she ensured continuous operations through the COVID-19 pandemic while increasing supply capacity to meet customer needs and accelerating the ramp of Intel’s 10nm process. She will now lead Intel technology development focusing on 7nm and 5nm processes. Dr. Mike Mayberry, who has been leading Technology Development, will consult and assist in the transition until his planned retirement at the end of the year. Mayberry has a 36-year track record of innovation at Intel, during which he has made key contributions in technology development and as the leader of Intel Labs.
  • Manufacturing and Operations, led by Keyvan Esfarjani. Esfarjani most recently led manufacturing for Intel’s Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group (NSG), in which role he set the vision and strategy for Intel’s memory manufacturing and led a rapid expansion of capacity. He will now lead global manufacturing operations and continue Kelleher’s work driving product ramp and the build-out of new fab capacity.
  • Design Engineering, led in the interim by Josh Walden while Intel conducts an accelerated global search to identify a permanent world-class leader. Walden is a proven leader in technology manufacturing and platform engineering. Most recently, he has been leading the Intel Product Assurance and Security Group (IPAS), which will continue to report to him.
  • Architecture, Software and Graphics will continue to be led by Raja Koduri. Koduri has responsibility for driving the development of Intel’s architecture and software strategy, and dedicated graphics product portfolio. Under his leadership, we will continue to invest in our software capability as a strategic asset and further build-out software engineering with cloud, platform, solutions and services expertise.
  • Supply Chain will continue to be led by Dr. Randhir Thakur.  Thakur will report directly to the CEO as chief supply chain officer, recognizing the ever-growing importance of this role and our relationships with key players in the ecosystem. Thakur and his team are charged with ensuring supply chain is a competitive advantage for Intel.

As a result of these changes, Murthy Renduchintala will leave Intel on Aug. 3, 2020.

“I look forward to working directly with these talented and experienced technology leaders, each of whom is committed to driving Intel forward during this period of critical execution,” said Swan. “I also want to thank Murthy for his leadership in helping Intel transform our technology platform. We have the most diverse portfolio of leadership products in our history and, as a result of our six pillars of innovation and disaggregation strategy, much more flexibility in how we build, package and deliver those products for our customers.”

From those who know said Jim had a real family illness but this political crap probably made his decision easier.

PS: Lisa never sleeps.
False. Lisa solves problems even while dreaming.

Sounds to me like a typical corporate company problem. The big boss doesn't want to take the blame and now he is looking for someone to sack.

Same can be said of Krzanich, except he got out much sooner.

Apparently Murthy was one of Intels highest paid employees. He got $26 million in total compensation for 2019. Have feeling he saw the push to outsource manufacturing to TSMC as a threat to his position and thus vigorously opposed it (which led to Jim Keller resigning). Now Intel is moving ahead with TSMC (6nm) and I guess that basically spelled the end of Murthys stint with Intel.
