Adobe's CTO, Kevin Lynch, is leaving the Photoshop and Flash maker to join Apple. CNBC's Jon Fortt got the statement from Adobe:
Kevin Lynch, Adobe CTO, is leaving the company effective March 22 to take a position at Apple. We will not be replacing the CTO position; responsibility for technology development lies with our business unit heads under the leadership of Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen. Bryan Lamkin, who has recently returned to Adobe, will assume responsibilities for cross company research and technology initiatives as well as Corporate Development. We wish Kevin well in this new chapter of his career.
No mention of what Lynch's role would be at Apple. Given Adobe's recent focus on software-as-a-service with Creative Cloud, perhaps online in Eddy Cue's division would be an obvious place. Apple tends to subsidize software costs with hardware, however, so the subscription part could likely be much less important than the cloud part.
More if/when Apple or Lynch comments, or his new role leaks. In the meantime, speculate away!
