Rajan Rajgopal has been named as the new CEO of Zero-Error Systems, a producer of high reliability semiconductor solutions for space and power management applications.
With over 25 years of international corporate experience spanning Asia, Europe, and the US in profit and loss management, quality, customer management, new product launch, and high-volume production excellence, Mr. Rajan Rajgopal is an accomplished semiconductor professional. A boutique manufacturer of semiconductor photonics with an emphasis on semiconductor lasers for the Data Communication and Sensing applications, DenseLight Semiconductor, is where he most recently served as president, chief executive officer, and vice chairman. Rajan formerly served as president of GaNStar (a division of the IGSS group), a company in the gallium nitride industry that created goods for power electronics. Prior to that, he served as Vice President of Global Quality at Micron Technology, where he oversaw a team of more than 500 individuals with a mission to deliver "World Class Quality."
He began his career with Texas Instruments as a member of the technical staff at the Semiconductor Research and Design Centre in Dallas, Texas, where he worked on Radiation Hardened semiconductors. Rajan holds a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin and an MS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Maine, Orono. He has been awarded four patents and authored more than 20 papers.
ZES Chairman, Mr Arunjai Mittal says, “With Rajan at the helm, ZES has someone who not only brings with him a wide range of understanding of semiconductors as a whole, covering the classical cost competitive Commercial-off-the-shelves (COTS) devices to the very specialized Radiation hardened devices as well as compound semiconductors, but also his experience in both large multi-nationals as well as start-ups. I am certain that ZES will benefit tremendously from his leadership."
