> Dieter Rams is the man behind Apple's design philosophy.

Rams and his work at Braun may have inspired Apple's products via Jony Ives, but Rams never worked on an Apple product (as far as I'm aware).

It's a bit like claiming "Thomas Edison is the man behind Tesla's motor technology".

Jony Ive specifically has said he looks up to Dieter Rams and his philosophy

Cool. So the original claim is firm:

> Dieter Rams is the man behind Apple's design philosophy.

(no need for him to work there to impact Ive's stance on design)

The man behind Apple's modern design philosophy is Jony Ive.
