Along with Apple’s announcement regarding Tim Cook stepping down as Apple CEO, Apple also announced that Johny Srouji, the Senior Vice President of Hardware Technologies, is being promoted to the role of Chief Hardware Officer. This department was under John Ternus’s leadership. Johny Srouji is a core part of Apple’s hardware engineering team and led projects such as the development of Apple Silicon, which has been a major success.

In the words of Tim Cook: “Johny is one of the most talented people I have ever had the privilege to work with,” said Apple CEO Tim Cook. “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.”
Apple’s upcoming CEO, John Ternus, said: “Johny has been an incredible partner on the executive team, and is going to be an extraordinary chief hardware officer,” “I look forward to continuing to work closely with him in our new roles.”

In 2008, a year after the introduction of the first iPhone, Johny Srouji joined the company to lead the development of Apple’s first SoC, the A4, which was used to power the iPhone 4 as well as the first iPad. His more recent accomplishments include the fast-paced development of Apple Silicon, especially when Apple switched from Intel to its M-series chips on Macs.
