Intel has just published a news release on its website stating that Jim Keller has resigned from the company, effective immediately, due to personal reasons. Jim Keller was hired by Intel two years ago to the role as Senior Vice President of Intel’s Silicon Engineering Group, after a string of successes at Tesla, AMD, Apple, AMD (again), and PA Semiconductor. As far as we understand, Jim’s goal inside Intel was to streamline a lot of the product development process on the silicon side, as well as providing strategic platforms though which future products can be developed and optimized to market. We also believe that Jim Keller has had a hand in looking at Intel’s manufacturing processes, as well as a number of future products.
Intel’s press release today states that Jim Keller is leaving the position on June 11th due to personal reasons. However, he will remain with the company as a consultant for six months in order to assist with the transition.
As a result of Jim’s departure, Intel has realigned some of its working groups internally with a series of promotions.
Jim Keller’s history in the industry has been well documented – his work has had a significant effect in a number of areas that have propelled the industry forward. This includes work on Apple’s A4 and A5 processors, AMD’s K8 and Zen high-level designs, as well as Tesla’s custom silicon for self driving which analysts have Tesla’s competitors have said put the company up to seven years ahead.
- Sundari Mitra, the former CEO and founder of Net Speed, will lead a newly created IP Engineering Group.
- Gene Scuteri will head the Xeon and Networking Engineering Group
- Daaman Hejmadi will lead the Client Engineering Group focused on SoC execution
- Navid Shahriari will continue to lead the Manufacturing and Product Engineering Group
With our interview with Jim Keller, several weeks after taking the job at Intel, we learned that Keller went in to the company with a spanner. Keller has repeatedly said that he’s a fixer, more than a visionary, and Intel would allow him to effect change at a larger scale than he had ever done previously.
From our interview:
Jim’s history has shown that he likes to spend a few years at a company and move on to different sorts of challenges. His two year stint at Intel has been one of his shorted tenures, and even recently Forbes published a deep expose on Jim, stating that ‘Intel is betting its chips on microprocessor mastermind Jim Keller’. So the fact that he is leaving relatively early based on his previous roles is somewhat different.
Intel’s press release on the matter suggests that this has been known about for enough time to rearrange some of the working groups around to cover Jim’s role. Jim will be serving at Intel for at least another six months it seems, in the role of a consultant, so it might be that long before he lands another spot in the industry.
It should be noted that Jim Keller is still listed to give one of the keynote addresses at this year’s Hot Chips conference on behalf on Intel. We will update this story if that changes.
Bonus thêm thì đây là người phát triển thế hệ Intel gen 10th Ice Lake và sắp tới đây là Tiger Lake, đều chạy trên tiến trình 10nm nhé.
Đây cũng chính là người đứng sau thành công của Infinity Fabric, vốn đang được sử dụng trên các dòng CPU Zen và các mẫu card Workstation của AMD.

có ai hỏi gì đâu mà lại trình bày rõ thế hả anh nhà báo ơi, đúng là làm cho người ta tò mò mà
. Mình nghĩ đi cũng là do xung đột với nhóm lãnh đạo, có thể do dàn lãnh đạo rác rưởi của Tèo cù nhây không đồng ý đầu tư tiếp để phát triển thêm, chắc là lấy đủ kinh nghiệm + kĩ năng rồi thì đá ra cho đội khác vào quản lí thôi, như công ti V nào đó vậy
