FBS, which oversees the global capabilities of the company through its 12,000 employees in Tamil Nadu, is all set to hire 3,000 more in the next three years at its Global Technology and Business Center in Chennai, a senior executive from Ford's global team told Business Standard.
The talent hunt in India aims to drive the company's road map on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).
India is home to the second-largest workforce of Ford globally.
"There are two dimensions to the expansions. Over the next few years, we plan to expand our centre by maybe 3,000 people. The more significant aspect is the type of work we are doing at our FBS centre with AI and ML technology," said Mike Amend, chief enterprise technology officer, Ford Motor Company. "We are adding these jobs for high-skilled and knowledge work," he added.
