The titles at Apple don't really translate to other companies. Product marketing at Apple for example decides on how big features work.

I can see the connection between a Product marketing person and feature development. The connection between the guy responsible for supply chains and operations and product/software design seems a bit weird to me.

But I guess Steve Jobs trusted Tim Cook enough to take over the reigns and he was a COO.

Industrial Design works hand-in-hand with Operations. One without the other means products that can't scale to hundreds of millions at good quality.
