Buss assumes the Cypress CFO position from Manny Hernandez, who took a job in April as CFO of SunPower Corp., Cypress' silicon solar cell subsidiary. Cypress Vice President and Controller Jeff Osorio was interim CFO during the transition period.
"Brad brings strong strategic financial leadership to Cypress, along with the analytical skills required to evaluate which businesses we should be in over the long haul and why," said Cypress President and CEO T.J. Rodgers. "That's why I recruited him so vigorously."
