Apple 'Shakes Up' Oversight of Product Design Ahead of CEO Change

Apple is reshaping hardware and product design leadership under Johny Srouji as it prepares for a possible John Ternus CEO transition.

Product design oversight is moving from Kate Bergeron to Shelly Goldberg and Dave Pakula, while Bergeron takes on broader product reliability responsibilities.

Apple is also placing more former Ternus deputies directly under Srouji, signaling tighter coordination between silicon, device, and design teams.

The overhaul points to a more integrated hardware structure ahead of future product launches.
