CFO Fay Leaving NeoPhotonics

James D. Fay, senior vice president of finance and chief financial officer of NeoPhotonics, is resigning from the photonic integrated circuit maker after six years to pursue another career opportunity.

“The decision to leave NeoPhotonics was a difficult one,” said Fay. “The progress we made since I joined the company has been rewarding, and I look forward to making similar contributions to another company, where I will have a similar role in growing the business.”

Fay will remain a NeoPhotonics employee until Nov. 11 and as a consultant until March 15. Cal Hoagland, principal of FLG Partners LLC, will serve as the company’s interim CFO until an executive search firm secures a successor.

“He built a strong finance team, helped lead our transition to a public company, and played an important role in implementing our strategic initiatives.” said NeoPhotonics’ Chairman, President and CEO Tim Jenks.
