Intel have appointed Irishwoman, Ann-Marie Holmes, as Vice President in what they say is a significant endorsement of the contribution of Irish talent to Intel.
Roscommon-born Ann-Marie joined Intel Corporation in 1991 as a new college graduate from Trinity and since then has gone on to work in all four of the Fabrication/Sort manufacturing facilities in Ireland – Fab10, Fab14, Ireland Fab Organisation (IFO) and Fab24.
In 2012 Ann-Marie was named as the factory manager of Intel’s Fab 24 facility in Ireland – one of the world’s most advanced facilities and the location of production of Intel’s latest process technology.
As Fab 24 Factory Manager Ann-Marie is responsible for all aspects of advanced manufacturing taking place in the fab on the 14nm process technology node which was recently introduced to Ireland following a $5 billion investment by Intel to upgrade the Irish facilities.
This brings to eight the number of Irish people who now hold Vice President positions in the company. Cork born Ann Kelleher is Corporate Vice President and General Manager of the Technology and Manufacturing Group. Eamonn Sinnott, General Manger of Intel Ireland; and Joe McDonnell, Fab 22 Plant Manager, who is based in Arizona; are both Vice Presidents of Intel’s Technology and Manufacturing Group. Rory McInerney, based at Intel’s headquarters in Santa Clara, is Vice President of Intel’s Architecture Group, Martin Curley is Vice President of Intel Labs, Philip Moynagh is Vice President of the Internet of Things Group and U.S. based Margaret Burgraff is Vice President of the Software and Services Group.
