Seagate announces sweeping management changes 
Seagate Technology has announced two strategic executive appointments to further Seagate’s effectiveness in delivering its core product technology portfolio, customer engagement and operational excellence.

Dave Mosley, who most recently served as Executive Vice-President of Operations and R&D, has been named President, Operations and Technology, responsible for Seagate’s global hard drive, heads and media manufacturing operations, as well as global research and development. Rocky Pimentel, who most recently served as Executive Vice-President and Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, has been named President, Global Markets and Customers, responsible for Seagate’s global customer engagement, sales, sales operations, product line management, marketing and retail activities. Both will continue to report toSteve Luczo, Chairman & CEO.
These appointments reflect the significant opportunities in front of Seagate. We believe that the trajectory of long-term demand for storage is outpacing supply, and the markets that we serve are both expanding and changing rapidly. Our traditional OEM and distribution customers are addressing important opportunities with new technology offerings and go-to-market capabilities. We are also actively engaging with many new customers directly, especially in the cloud services market and with start-up businesses that are also pursuing innovative technical approaches for their storage infrastructures and lack significant go-to-market capabilities, said Luczo.

It is expected that the new alignment of Seagate’s leadership allows the company to focus more on the longer-term strategic opportunities for the company, and to increase company’s efforts...........See More
