Tesla has hired Gary Jiang, an Intel veteran who most recently was responsible for installing equipment and transferring Intel's leading-edge 18A technology process from development fab in Oregon to the company's high-volume fab in Arizona, as spotted by Electrek.co. The appointment marks the first publicly identified senior leadership hire for Elon Musk's semiconductor production project, Terafab, which demonstrates Tesla's effort to build an experienced semiconductor manufacturing organization from the ground up by hiring veterans from other companies.
