Infotech Enterprises Limited, a Hyderabad-based technology solutions provider offering engineering and geographic information (GI) services, is looking at hiring 1,500-2,000 professionals by the end of the current financial year, backed by its growing business from its existing clients across verticals. The company employs 8,000 globally.

“The hiring will be a combination of all the domains that we have currently, including engineering and GI. We see more traction coming in and we would certainly like to have more on the board,” said B Ashok Reddy, president (global HR and corporate affairs) of Infotech.

He was speaking to mediapersons on the sidelines of the ‘HR Conclave – Talent building for emerging India’ organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in Hyderabad on Friday.

Reddy said the visa row has had any impact on the company as of its total strength, less than 50 per cent were under L1 and H1B visas. “We currently have 780 people on rolls in the US of which about 250 could be under L1 and H1B. In the case of Wellsco, which we acquired recently, all the 180 resources are locals. We are safe in there,” he added.
