Here we go again. HTC’s VP of Industrial Design, Jonah Becker has announced that he has left the company. Jonah Becker took over the VP of Industrial Design position roughly a year ago when Scott Croyle resigned from the position. Scott Croyle and Jonah Becker joined HTC with the acquisition of One & Co in late 2008.
Since the mobile industry is in perpetual motion, HTC has already filled the leadership void by promoting Daniel Hundt to take on Becker’s responsibilities. Jonah hasn’t share where he is headed, but we’re sure he’ll be moving on to something promising like Nextbit or gogoro (new companies spearheaded by former designers at HTC).
It’s been an amazing seventeen year journey with One & Co and HTC, but it’s time for a new adventure. Stay tuned for details of what’s next.

We can confirm that Jonah Becker has left HTC; he had been with the Company since HTC acquired One & Co over six years ago. We would like to thank Jonah for his work with HTC, and wish him all the best in his future endeavours. He has been succeeded by Daniel Hundt, based in our San Francisco design office.
