Austria-based IC substrate and PCB manufacturing leader AT&S AG on Monday launched its Global IT Shared Service Center (IT SSC) in Pune, Maharashtra, as per reports.
The new centre will support the company’s transcontinental operations across Austria, China, Malaysia, and India.
The IT SSC will create career opportunities for over 100 IT professionals in fields such as IT security, SAP, and software development by 2025-26. It aligns with AT&S’s objective to attain efficiency and technological excellence across its six manufacturing plants and nine sales offices worldwide.
“India’s deep talent pool and innovation-driven ecosystem make it the perfect location to drive agility and technological excellence across our operations,” Peter Griehsnig, AT&S AG’s chief technology officer, said at the launch event.
The Pune IT SSC will leverage India’s specialised IT expertise for innovation and service reliability.
The centre will operate through four Centres of Excellence (CoE): Security & Infrastructure, focused on strengthening cybersecurity and IT infrastructure; IT Applications, managing enterprise software and SAP solutions; Operations Technology, enhancing manufacturing and industrial IT systems; and Digital & Data, driving data-driven decision-making and digital transformation.
It is headed by A.S. Raghavendra, who is responsible for delivering scalable and innovative solutions for AT&S’s global operations.
This initiative follows Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Austria in July 2024, where AT&S executives met with him at the Federal Chancellery in Vienna.
AT&S has had a strong presence in India for 25 years, operating India’s largest advanced PCB export facility in Nanjangud, Mysuru.
