Former Apple executive Abigail Brody has landed a job at China's top smartphone maker, Huawei.
As Apple's former creative director, Brody helped develop and design the first iPhone, including its operating system, user interface, and user experience.
She spent almost 10 years at Apple (AAPL, Tech30) before leaving to join eBay as vice president of global design.
Brody is now Chief Designer and vice president at Huawei.
Huawei calls Brody a top expert in user experience in a company blog post on Weibo, a Chinese social media site,The company says she will create and lead a design team in the United States to create "the best user experience" of Huawei's products.
On her LinkedIn profile, Brody describes her new job as: "Doing something new and incredible: reinventing Huawei Consumer from the ground up with a vision."
She also posted her email address with an open call for job applicants."Currently I have openings for the San Francisco based (yet to be established) design center," Brody writes. "Join me if you want to change the world through design."
Huawei recently overtook Xiaomi as the No. 1 smartphone vendor in China, according to research firm Canalys.
Like many other Chinese phone manufacturers, Huawei wants to get a bigger share of the U.S. marketplace.
The company already has phones on all of the major U.S. carriers, including the well-received Google Nexus 6P.
Huawei has had such a strong desire to enter the U.S. smartphone market that it even briefly changed its hard-to-pronounce name (WAH-way), calling itself "FutureWei" here.
That didn't last, but its ambitions remain.
Eventually, the company may also have competition with other Chinese phone makers who are just as ambitious too.
Lenovo, OnePlus, and ZTE are just some of the brands that have been cranking out beautiful and cheap new devices to go up against Apple and Samsung stateside.
前蘋果計劃總監Abigail Brody已擔當聘於中國頂級電話制造商華為。
作為前任蘋果創意總監，她創造和計劃了第一台Iphone，包含它的運行體系，用戶界面和用戶感受。
分開蘋果參加Ebay成為環球計劃副主席曩昔，她在蘋果消費了十年的時光。
Brody如今是華為首席計劃師和副主席。
華為在公司微博的博客上把Brody譽為用戶感受範疇的頂尖專家，微博是一其中國交際媒體平台。公司稱，她將會組建和引導美國計劃團隊，為華為產物發明“最佳的用戶感受”。
在她的領英簡歷上，Brody把本身的新事情描寫為：“做一些極新而又難以想象的工作：重塑華為花費者的視線。”
她還把本身的郵箱地點放在網頁上，追求求職者“如今，我的聖弗朗西斯科在建計劃中間有空白職位，”Brody寫道。“假如你想經由過程計劃轉變天下，參加我。”
華為比來接收了小米，成為中國第一的電話供給商。
像許多其他的中國電話制作商同樣，華為想要得到美國市場的更多份額。
公司已具有了重要美國承運商的電話，包含廣為迎接的谷歌Nexus 6P。
華為如斯想要進入美國市場，以致於它把本身欠好發音的名字在美國改成了“將來為”。
那不會長期，但它的大誌仍舊。
末了，公司還會和其他一樣野心勃勃的中國電話制作商競爭。
Lenovo, OnePlus和復興只是在反抗蘋果和三星的雅觀而又廉價的電話品牌中的一部門。
市場價：HK$ 92
