Byhalia Jobs: Jabil seeks 300 workers for AI infrastructure plant

Jabil is hiring for more than 300 positions at its new manufacturing facility in Byhalia.

The company expects the site to open early next year. It is located approximately 30 minutes east of the existing Memphis location, which began operations in 2004. The new plant will focus on data center infrastructure for major AI firms. Products include liquid cooling solutions, switchgear, power distribution systems, and large-scale assemblies.

Open roles cover a range of full-time positions. Job openings include assemblers, material handlers, quality inspectors, and shipping clerks. The company is also seeking engineers, supply chain professionals, supervisors, and managers.

Raj Kalyanarajan, senior operations director for the Byhalia site, stated that the company aims to grow manufacturing in the region. He said the positions offer opportunities for personal and professional development. "As a U.S.-based company, we’re proud to help grow manufacturing here in Byhalia," Kalyanarajan said.

This expansion follows a July announcement that Jabil would bring approximately 2,200 jobs to Mississippi. The company plans to invest more than $119 million in the new Marshall County production facility. This investment supplements a previous $70 million commitment made in September 2025. That earlier deal created 24 jobs and established X-ray sterilization capabilities in a 100,000-square-foot facility in the same county.

Prospective applicants can submit applications through Jabil’s website. They may also attend walk-in interviews at the facility located at 800 Gateway Global Drive.
