An Apple spokesperson has confirmed that Duffy, who ended up at the Google-owned Nest after the company he founded was acquired in 2014, will be joining Apple but declined to comment on his role.
Like other recent high-profile hires by Apple, people close to the matter have speculated that Duffy is “likely to be leading a special project at Apple that is operating like a startup within the company.” Duffy’s background also suggests a possibility that his role may be related to Apple’s HomeKit home automation framework.
