NEW ALBANY, Ohio (WCMH) – Job openings in engineering, technical support, construction and more are all on the table at Ohio’s coming Intel plant.


Career listings spotted Monday showed that Intel is looking to fill at least 14 types of positions for its semiconductor fabrication plant in New Albany. Although the company delayed its groundbreaking ceremony for the Ohio plant over the CHIPS Act stalling in U.S. Congress, it still moved ahead with bringing construction crews to the planned site for “early work.”

NBC4 traveled to Chandler, Arizona, to see an existing Intel plant that set the model for what the company will bring to Ohio. There, Intel Vice President of Global Talent Planning & Acquisition Cindi Harper gave examples of other jobs that the plant would look for, along with the degrees Ohio students should pursue to get them. She said that in total, Intel would be hiring around 10,000 people to work on and inside of the plant.

“Although 3,000 of them will actually be in our fabs long-term, 7,000 of them will be right beside us in construction and other trades,” Harper said. “And typically our trades hire very similarly to the type of talent that we have.”

Some of the job openings listed a required temporary relocation to Chandler and other Intel sites, but Harper did not have a set time in mind when these new employees would make the training trip. However, she did mention when the company intended to ramp up hiring and scouting at Ohio universities.

“We’re still working through the details of the timing,” Harper said. “We’re hoping to be on campuses in the fall of this year. And if you think about that, you’re hiring for them to graduate in June of next year.”
