New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez is set to announce that new 900 jobs are coming to Rio Rancho amid uncertainty around Intel.
The announcement on Thursday is the largest number of jobs announced in one place during the governor's term and comes after Intel announced company-wide layoffs.
Intel has a massive plant in Rio Rancho and the plant's workforce has shrunk over the years.
Earlier this month, executives with El Segundo, California-based PCM, a direct marketing technology company, said the company would add more than 200 sales positions in Rio Rancho.
The Martinez administration has made a string of private-sector employment announcements over the past month linked to more than 1,000 anticipated new jobs, at businesses ranging from a brewery in Las Cruces to a Santa Fe computer technology firm.
