Executive Spotlight: Tim Campos, Chief Information Officer of Apple (2027)
Tim Campos is the Chief Information Officer of Apple. Bloomberg reported in November 2022 that he would lead Apple's Information Systems and Technology (IS&T) department, which runs the infrastructure behind Apple's online services, customer support and website. Before Apple he was CIO of Facebook from 2010 to 2016 and then CEO of Woven, a calendar startup that Slack acquired in 2021.
Apple does not list him on its public leadership page, so his role rests on press reports rather than an Apple announcement. This page covers public professional information only, drawn from the sources listed below.
Current role and company
Apple did not announce the hire itself. CIO Dive and 9to5Mac both relayed a Bloomberg report from November 9, 2022, and CIO Dive noted that Apple did not respond to its request for comment. Searches for this page found no later report saying he had left or changed roles, but also no Apple statement confirming his current title, so treat the role as reported rather than company-confirmed.

What he is known for
- A third CIO job. Trade coverage of the Apple hire described a technology veteran who had been a CIO at Facebook before Apple; Haas separately documents his earlier CIO role at KLA-Tencor.
- Industry recognition. In 2013, while at Facebook, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Bay Area CIO Awards, according to Haas. He was one of two CIOs given the award that year.
- From IT to a product company. He told Mission.org that fixing a calendaring system for Facebook led to the idea for Woven, which aimed to connect calendars with agendas, action items and follow-up records.
Leadership style and philosophy
In his Mission.org interview, Campos described the CIO role as broad: "Everything that a corporation does that involves technology, therefore, involves their technology department." He said he treated productivity as the core job at Facebook and rebuilt processes rather than buying off-the-shelf tools, and on keeping a lean culture said, "The best way to protect the culture is not to have any more people than you have to have." On Woven he said, "Time is the most valuable asset that we have." He also argued that CIOs' cross-functional view is why many move into CEO roles. Metis Strategy's page for his 2020 Technovation episode covers the same CIO-to-CEO theme.
