Buckhead Could Be Home to New GE Digital Center

ATLANTA, GA — GE Digital is rumored to be considering Buckhead as home to its first-ever digital operations center.

GE needs about 50,000 square feet for the center, according to the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

GE made the announcement that Atlanta would be the home of the center in June. The project is initially expected to create 250 jobs and represents an investment of approximately $3 million in the local community.

The move is part of GE Digital’s larger effort to bring together digital capabilities from across GE in a single organization, providing customers with industrial solutions and software needed to solve real-world problems.

The newly created jobs will include positions in system administration and engineering, full-stack operations and engineering and service desk professionals.

The center is part of GE’s ongoing industrial internet initiative. The facility will operate year-round and support GE’s Global Infrastructure operations.
