Executive Team Well-positioned for Accelerated Product Innovation, Scalability and Market Outperformance

indie Semiconductor, Inc. (Nasdaq: INDI), an Autotech solutions innovator, today announced the promotion of a few outstanding senior executives within the organization.

In their new roles, these key management team members will help drive indie’s market outperformance and realize the Company’s vision of creating an Autotech powerhouse.

Peter Gulden appointed Executive Vice President of Radar Systems and Software

“Peter is a global expert in radar systems engineering.
