15 Jobs Created In Axway Dublin Expansion

15 jobs are expected to be created through the expansion of an R&D Centre of Excellence established in Dublin by data solutions company Axway.

The move sees the company join a list of other IT and tech firms such as Amazon, Facebook, Google and Linkedin, which have all recently expanded operations in the capital.

Axway said it wanted to "make the most of the local engineering talent."

Enterprise Minister Richard Bruton said: "Axway's decision to expand its R&D Centre of Excellence and create 15 high quality jobs is a clear indication of Ireland’s importance as a key location for technology companies to expand and grow their business. Under our Action Plan for Jobs we have identified the technology sector as an area of great potential and I am committed to ensuring that we continue to attract further investments and create much needed jobs for this economy."

"There is a world class software engineering population in Ireland and we want to recruit from this talent pool. Dublin in particular is globally acknowledged as a hub of engineering excellence and we will be looking to recruit senior engineering staff for our R&D Centre," said Laurent Bride, Executive Vice President of Research & Development, Axway.

"Engineers joining us will be working on some of the latest computing technologies as we evolve Axway’s enterprise software portfolio, to ensure we are at the forefront of the Cloud and Mobile innovation curve."
