So HotHardware has gotten the scoop on the high profile move of the day: Tom Peterson, formerly of NVIDIA, has left for Intel. We reached out just now to our own sources and can confirm the same (as well a few more choice morsels on the details). We have learned that Tom Peterson will be joining as an Intel Engineering Fellow and will be reporting to Ari Rauch. Tom Peterson joins Intel as engineering fellow under Ari RauchTom “TAP” Peterson has been the Director of Technical Marketing of NVIDIA since 2005 and after almost 14 years spent at the company will now be moving on. He posted the following message on his facebook page on Friday:
While his position at NVIDIA was a marketing based role, he will be joining the engineering group at Intel and was recruited by Ari Rauch. Tom is going to be responsible for defining and delivering on the quintessential gaming experience – something Intel is going to be very particular about igoing forward. Considering he has previously worked with NVIDIA GSync and helped improve the gaming experience over at NVIDIA, we are sure he will be a great fit in his new role. Some of his goals will include how to make the gaming experience better and participating in the innovation pipeline. Intel has been snatching quite a few high profile executives from pretty much all major companies (AMD, NVIDIA, Tesla – you name it) and is quickly turning into one of the greenest pastures for (graphics) industry veterans to migrate to. All of this is part of their plan to diversify from CPUs into GPUs; an effort that is led by Raja Koduri and something that will bear its first fruit in 2020 with Intel Xe. We wish Tom Peterson the very best of luck in his future endeavors. Here is the bio which is currently up on this NVIDIA page: Read More Intel Snatches Up Tom Peterson (formerly) Of NVIDIA, Will Be Joining As An Intel Engineering Fellow - Wccftech : https://ift.tt/2WEJK9z
