Just three years after her return to the company, Shlomit Weiss, the most senior Israeli figure at Intel, is departing the chip giant. Concurrently, Intel is undergoing an organizational change, integrating the company's Design Engineering Group, where Weiss served as co-general manager, into the company's business groups. Intel confirmed these details but asserted that Weiss' retirement was unrelated to the reorganization process.

Weiss boasts over 30 years of experience in the chip industry, primarily acquired at Intel, supplemented by approximately four years in a senior role at Mellanox. In her current capacity, Weiss oversees the development and design of chips in the realm of edge computing, alongside co-general manager Sunil Shenoy. Her retirement signifies a significant loss of knowledge and expertise for Intel, potentially impacting the status of Intel's R&D center in Israel within the company.

"Ms. Weiss has chosen to retire from Intel after an illustrious career," the company stated. "She will continue to serve as a consultant until the end of the summer. She is an exceptional leader who has made substantial contributions to both Intel and the industry."

Weiss has held many executive roles at Intel during her 28-year stint at the company. Over the years, she was the laureate of Intel's top award the Intel Achievement Award - for developing Intel's Dual-Core processor architecture in Israel, and led the development of the Sky Lake processor, ultimately named as "Intel's best-ever processor" by its then-CEO. She worked at Intel for 28 years before joining Mellanox in 2017. It was then acquired by Nvidia where she served as its Senior VP for Silicon Engineering before stepping down in July 2021.n
