Apple Inc. has hired David Smoley, chief information officer of pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca Plc, for a vice president role.

Smoley joined the Cupertino, California-based technology giant this month after six years at the U.K-based drugmaker. At Apple, he will work in a similar information technology role and won’t be focused on Apple’s growing health-care efforts. He is reporting to Mary Demby, Apple’s chief information officer. Apple confirmed the move on Friday. AstraZeneca declined to comment.
