According to the rumor mill, Jim Keller has reportedly joined Samsung as chief architect after leaving AMD just over a month ago. I'm not sure what kind of arrangement Mr. Keller had with AMD, or if he had a non-compete clause, but this seems awful soon for him to be joining another company.

Keller will be joining Samsung’s R&D centers in Austin, Texas as chief architect and will undoubtedly help the company further improve its mobile hardware offerings. After all, even though Samsung managed to gain quite a lead for itself with the debut of the 14nm FinFET for mobile processors, its competitors including TSMC are eager to catch up and are quickly developing their responses as well.
 
Keller is so good at what he does he can basically just work wherever he wants. I think it is reasonable to assume that his career is now project-based rather than corporation-based. He will go do an interesting project BECAUSE it is interesting to him. When the project is over, he looks for new engineering challenges to outsmart.

I envy him.
 
It's simple...
He finally found a company MAKING and not bleeding money, with a real R&D dept...
Score for Samsung...!!!
 
For a moment I thought Samsung was entering the construction business...
