Microsoft to create 200 jobs in Dublin

  • The tech giant will create the new roles at its European headquarters in Ireland.

    Microsoft continues to grow its base in Ireland with the announcement that it plans to create 200 new jobs in Dublin.

    Half of the new positions will be skilled engineering jobs as part of the company's ‘innovative engineering team’ which works on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI).

    The tech giant, which has been in Ireland for over 30 years, is also creating 50 roles in digital sales, with an additional 50 positions in its graduate programme and sales.

    Last year, Microsoft revealed plan to create 600 new jobs in Ireland at its Sandyford campus in Dublin.

    “The team here is working with businesses, governments, organisations and people across the globe to help make our vision a reality - helping them to do and achieve more," said Cathriona Hallahan, Managing Director of Microsoft Ireland.

    "Microsoft is developing and deploying solutions fuelled by new technologies that are helping to support opportunities and solve challenges for our customers.

    "Our engineering team is at the centre of this work. From the creation of new cloud services that enable flexible working for employees and the adoption of machine learning to automated translation, to the harnessing of data to provide personalised products, Microsoft engineers in Dublin are developing exciting innovations that have global impact."
