Wolfspeed Launches Dedicated Data Center Solutions Team in Silicon Valley; Hires Industry Experts to Drive Highly Compact and Efficient Power Solutions for AI Infrastructure

Industry Veterans Ganesh Srinivasan and Yogesh Ramadass Appointed to Accelerate Expansion into Next-Generation Data Center Power Solutions

DURHAM, N.C. & SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wolfspeed, Inc. (NYSE: WOLF), a global leader in silicon carbide technology, today announced an expansion into the rapidly growing data center market with the creation of a dedicated data center solutions team and regional office in the San Francisco Bay Area. The new Wolfspeed data center solutions team is targeted to enable closer alignment with leading hyperscalers, ODMs and the entire ecosystem to build differentiated products and solutions for AI and other data center applications.

Demand for next-generation data center power architecture innovations has never been greater. This move more effectively positions Wolfspeed to deliver high-voltage SiC power solutions engineered to drastically reduce energy loss and maximize efficiency for modern AI infrastructure.

"The sheer scale of AI computing demands a fundamental rewrite of data center power architecture," said Robert Feurle, CEO of Wolfspeed. "Moving to higher voltages is no longer optional — it's a necessity. With our new data center solutions team at the epicenter of tech innovation, Wolfspeed is uniquely positioned to deliver the high-voltage solutions our hyperscaler and ODM partners need to build the efficient data centers of tomorrow."

Ganesh Srinivasan joins as Senior Vice President to lead our data center solutions team. Ganesh brings deep data center experience to Wolfspeed, having worked closely not only with hyperscalers but also with the entire ODM ecosystem to deliver end-to-end power and signal connectivity solutions for high-density AI clusters. Previous to his appointment at Wolfspeed, Ganesh served as VP of Product Management for the AI, Cloud, and Enterprise business at TE Connectivity. Prior to TE Connectivity, he spent more than 17 years leading multiple power business product lines at Texas Instruments. He holds M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Georgia Tech.

Yogesh Ramadass joins as Vice President, Power Systems Solutions & Fellow, in the data center solutions team. Yogesh is an expert in high-and low-voltage power topologies and author of more than 160 technical articles. He most recently led R&D efforts across high-voltage power management, MEMS and sensors at Texas Instruments. Yogesh holds S.M. and Ph.D. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is a former IEEE Distinguished Lecturer and chair of the ISSCC Power Management Subcommittee.
