Recently, Intel, a large semiconductor manufacturer, is experiencing a wave of significant departures from senior executives, highlighting the company's internal technical difficulties and dramatic changes in its leadership. Among them, Narahari Ramanuja, a 25-year senior executive at Intel, is particularly eye-catching. Recently, he announced that he would be the responsible person of Analog Devices' construction factory in Orega, whose job was seen as the latest example of Intel's challenge of talent loss.

According to local media reports in Orega, the United States, Intel is working hard to recover technically. However, since 2025, the company has had several key technology experts and senior managers resigning from their posts or announcing retirement. The loss of this batch of experienced talents undoubtedly poses a serious challenge to Intel's technical recovery path.

Among them, important senior executives who recently announced their resignation or retirement include Ann Kelleher, who announced his retirement in March 2025, Matt Prince and Glenn Hinton, who announced his retirement in 2025, Sanjay Natarajan, vice president of technical research at Intel Factory, and vice president of Intel, and Kaizad Mistry and Ryan Russell, who announced his retirement in June. This series of personnel changes has caused doubts about whether Intel can effectively respond to current technical challenges and re-establish its leading position in the leading chip field.

In fact, in order to meet its leading market environment with the continuous decline in demand for chips, Intel has continued to implement large-scale cost reductions and cut-offs over the past year. In 2024 alone, the company cut about 15,000 jobs and laid off another 15,000 employees last month, showing its decisiveness to operate. In Orega, Intel's employee base has dropped by at least 5,400 in the past year. Despite the sharp decline in employee numbers, Intel is still the state's largest corporate employer and continues to develop its advanced chip technology at Hillsboro.

Last week, US President Trump took an unprecedented action, using federal funds of up to $9 billion to buy Intel's shares, with the aim of providing support to the important chip manufacturers in the US technology industry, to resolve the current financial bottleneck caused by Intel's damage. However, in a clear contrast to Intel's current dilemma, ADI showed its expansion and successfully attracted Intel's senior talents. ADI operates a completely different market from Intel in the technology market. Its chips mainly use mature technologies and play a key supporting role in a variety of industries, communications and consumer equipment.

Reported by the report, ADI's factory located next to the Beaverton Tektronix Park in Orega, recently completed an upgraded transformation of $1 billion. This is not only the largest facility under ADI, but also shows its strong potential in this field. In addition, the company also has a factory in Camas to further strengthen its business layout in the market. With the addition of Narahari Ramanuja, ADI also expects to further inject new management and technical experience into the company's ever-expanding expansion.
