Apple's former hardware engineering chief John Ternus officially became CEO of the company today, with the change now reflected on Apple's leadership page.


Ternus joined Apple in 2001, became a vice president of hardware engineering in 2013, and became senior vice president of hardware engineering in 2021. He is 51, so he could serve as CEO for 10 to 15 years before reaching typical retirement age.

Tim Cook is now executive chairman of Apple's board of directors, after a 15-year run as CEO. In this role, Apple said Cook "will assist with certain aspects of the company, including engaging with policymakers around the world."


During his final day as CEO on Monday, Cook stopped by the Apple Park Visitor Center in Cupertino, California to meet some of Apple's retail employees from various stores, with photos and a video of the visit available on Instagram.

In case you missed it, Cook shared a letter to the Apple community in April.
