Financial technology services company Infosys is hiring 250 people over the next three years, doubling its workforce in Ireland.
Just under 100 of the new jobs will be at its R&D facility, with 155 more jobs to come on stream at a new development centre. Jobs at the development centre include high-end IT consulting, business analytics, business processing and customer service roles. This centre will, according to sources, "operate an open innovation model, working closely with customers, technology partners, academic institutions and the start-up community in areas of technology, such as block chain and analytics".
The job expansion is being supported by the Government through IDA Ireland.
