He was one of the key inventors of the OMAP™ application processor for Smartphones, a unique advanced processor architecture, adopted by the largest mobile phone companies in the world. Due to his exceptional technical contributions to TI, Tannyeres was elected Senior Fellow, one of six in the entire company. Following his TI career, Louis Tannyeres was Principal Fellow, Chief Chip Architect and Head of System Silicon Development at ST-Ericsson.

“Louis is a great addition to the executive team of Kalray. He brings tremendous expertise in leading design teams to develop and industrialize advanced processor solutions for large semiconductor companies”, said Eric Baissus, CEO of Kalray. “In addition, he is a unique leader and role model to his teams.

In his role, Tannyeres will manage hardware design and test, board design, engineering and industrialization teams, reporting to the CEO. He will focus on the design of Coolidge™ and its evolutions as the platform to support the company's ambitions on Data Center and Automotive markets.

 

As a seasoned sailor who competed five times in the Solitaire du Figaro, a famous solo sailing race with several stages, Tannyeres will stay the course and give Kalray the benefit of his tenacity and his great experience in this new challenge.
