He is going to serve as the CEO for an un-named, worldwide producer of electronic components, electrical contacts and assemblies, based in Philadelphia, PA. (Ed note, posted 2/23/10: Maloney will become the new CEO for Technitrol, which makes parts for the wireless, military, automotive and other industries.)
