The group plans to hire another 200 people by next year and is looking for engineers and software specialists, according to Cristian Colteanu, GE CEO for Romania, Bulgaria, and Moldova, reports local Economica.net.
He added that the company’s need for engineers comes from its transformation into a digital company.
“At GE, we never have enough engineers, and Romanian engineers are very good,” Colteanu said.
GE now has three production units in Romania, which employ 600 people and have yearly exports of some USD 100 million. The group owns the oil equipment factory Lufkin Ploiesti, an aircraft engine components producer in Bucharest, and a power equipment producer that it took from Alstom. (source: Romania-insider.com)
