Google wasn't shy about targeting its Pixel phones at iPhone users (it even helped them migrate), and now that similarity could extend to the processors under the hood. Variety has discovered that Google recently hired Manu Gulati, a key chip designer at Apple, to become its lead system-on-chip architect. While Gulati's LinkedIn profile doesn't say much about what he's doing, sources claim that Google hired him with the goal of designing its own CPUs for Pixel phones. It's looking for more chip experts, too, and has posted job listings or a "mobile SoC CPU architect" and similar roles.
