What this means for employees
The scale and customer commitments strengthen the long-term outlook for advanced packaging, process engineering, equipment, quality and manufacturing roles at the campus. Phase-two construction is not expected to begin until late 2027 and completion is targeted for the end of 2029, so candidates should distinguish current openings from later planned demand.
