One of the largest music streaming services will create 250 jobs in Atlanta.

Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal said in a news release Wednesday that Pandora will expand its presence over the next three years. The company, based in California, plans to hire for positions in product and engineering, sales, client services, legal and human resources.

Deal calls Pandora’s expansion an “investment” to a highly-skilled Atlanta workforce.
