Apple’s head of iPhone and Apple Watch design is reportedly leaving the company.
Apple’s (AAPL) head of iPhone and Apple Watch design is leaving the company. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Tang Tan, who has worked on devices including the iPhone, watch, and Apple’s AirPods, will exit Apple in February.
Tan reports up to Apple’s SVP of hardware design John Ternus who answers to CEO Tim Cook. Tan’s departure also means Apple is moving around personnel within its design teams to fill in gaps, according to Gurman.
Shares of Apple were relatively flat following the news, with the company’s overall market capitalization remaining steady above the $3 trillion mark.
Apple’s design team has undergone a series of shifts in recent years following former design chief Jony Ive’s departure in 2019.
