BELAGAVI\/BENGALURU: Intel has promoted its networking chip head Sachin Katti to be its chief technology officer and AI chief<\/a>, Reuters reported citing an internal memo. The elevation comes at a time when Intel’s new CEO Lip-Bu Tan is flattening the firm’s leadership team.
Before joining Intel, Katti founded Uhana<\/a>, a startup working on bringing real-time AI<\/a> to mobile networks, which was acquired by VMware.
At Intel, Katti served as the SVP and general manager of network and edge group. In this role, he led initiatives to advance product excellence across network infrastructure and intelligent edge solutions.
The Belagavi boy, who was born in a family of doctors, is based in the US with his wife, Seema, and their two children. After graduating from IIT-Bombay in 2003, Katti went on to Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he obtained his MS and PhD degrees.<\/p>\n

“One of our school principals inspired a bunch of students to pursue their higher education at IITs, and Sachin set his mind on this goal while studying in the sixth grade. He is also passionate about cricket and football,” his brother Amit Katti, a urologist, told TOI.
Over a decade ago, Katti also co-founded Kumu Networks, which specialised in advanced full-duplex radio technology. He, along with his graduate students, showed the feasibility of implementing duplex radios, which can transmit and receive signals on identical frequencies. Katti built the first commercial full-duplex radios globally and raised $45 million.
Uhana, which he founded later, specialised in implementing deep learning and real-time AI within carrier networks and applications, enhancing performance through optimisation.
His latest research focuses on ML-EXray, which provides visibility and automated operations for machine learning applications deployed at edge locations. The system streamlines operational processes whilst offering comprehensive monitoring capabilities for edge-based ML implementations. An email sent to Katti on his elevation didn’t elicit a response till the time of going to press.
Outside work, Katti tries to visit his hometown once a year. “He loves rotti and jhunka (gram flour porridge) and misal pav,” his brother Amit added.<\/div>\n
