Vertiv Expands in Ohio, Adding 1,000 Long-Term Tech and Engineering Jobs
Vertiv, a global technology company, is expanding its operations in Ohio with plans to create 1,000 long-term jobs. The move follows over six decades of the company's presence in the state, where it now aims to strengthen its engineering, sales, and project management teams.
Governor Mike DeWine and local officials have welcomed the growth, highlighting Ohio's skilled workforce and its importance in Vertiv's AI supply chain strategy. Vertiv's expansion will focus on two key locations: Westerville and Ironton. The company has operated in Ohio for more than 60 years, and this latest investment builds on that history. The new roles will span engineering, sales, services, and project management, offering more stable employment than temporary construction jobs often linked to data centre projects.
Lydia Mihalik, director of the Department of Development, pointed to Ohio's strong manufacturing background and its leadership in technology production. Anand Sanghi, president of Vertiv Americas, echoed this confidence, citing the state's talent pool and long-term industrial capabilities as key factors in the decision.
Governor DeWine praised Ohio's workforce, emphasising its role in supporting Vertiv's AI and data infrastructure initiatives. The expansion aligns with the company's broader goals to meet growing demand in digital infrastructure and energy-efficient solutions. The expansion will bring 1,000 direct jobs to Ohio over time, reinforcing the state's position in technology and manufacturing. Vertiv's investment reflects confidence in the region's ability to support advanced industries. The new positions are expected to provide lasting career opportunities in engineering and related fields.
