Qualtrics, a leader in experience management, is to create 400 new tech jobs in the Washington metropolitan area over the next five years.
It will also expand its East Coast hub in Reston, Virginia.
The investments come as businesses and governments increasingly turn to Qualtrics to help them deliver incredible customer, employee, brand and product experiences.
The company plans to more than double its workforce in the DC metro area, hiring across all functions, including sales, professional services, engineering, operations, customer success and marketing.
Qualtrics’ Reston office will span 85,000 square feet in Reston Station, a rapidly growing area for top tech, defense and service companies. The company’s expanded East Coast hub in Reston will serve as a center of excellence for product innovation, including Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and is set to open in Q3 of 2022.
“Virginia offers access to the highest concentration of tech talent in the United States,” said Governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam. “The Commonwealth’s diverse tech ecosystem is driven by our stable business climate, competitive operating costs, and a world-class workforce. We look forward to Qualtrics’ continued success in Fairfax County.”
“With its strong talent pool, Virginia is a perfect place for us to grow,” said Qualtrics CEO Zig Serafin.
