Tech Jobs in Ireland

Positions 22,012 Updated daily

Ireland’s tech scene thrives on a blend of multinational headquarters, a robust start‑up ecosystem, and generous state incentives like the 12.5% corporate tax rate and the R&D tax credit. The country’s EU membership guarantees data residency compliance, attracting cloud and fintech firms seeking a single market base. Salaries in Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick now routinely top €70k for mid‑level roles, making it one of the most lucrative tech hubs in Europe.

Dublin hosts Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Salesforce, SAP, and Adobe, while Cork is the centre of biopharma and life‑science tech, home to Pfizer, Roche and Blackstone Life Sciences. Galway’s media and gaming sector boasts Unity, Impar, and local indie studios, and Limerick’s software community includes companies like Accenture and local fintech startups such as Bnext. The breadth of disciplines – from cloud infrastructure and cybersecurity to AI research and health‑tech – offers a spectrum of specialised roles.

The cost of living in Dublin can push monthly rent over €2,000 for a one‑bedroom apartment, and the average cost of groceries and utilities is roughly 10% above the EU average. Transparent salary data allows candidates to weigh compensation against these expenses and plan for relocation or remote work. For expats, clear pay figures help navigate tax treaties, universal healthcare enrolment, and the cost of private insurance.
