More than 160 hi-tech jobs promised by four IDA supported companies

OVER 160 new hi-tech jobs were announced by four IDA client companies yesterday, boosting the Government’s push to make Ireland a leading European technology hub.

The San Francisco-headquartered cloud computing firm Engine Yard has chosen Dublin as its EMEA-region headquarters, creating 30 high-quality jobs over the next three years in the process.

Another 15 jobs to be created over the next two years are due from Pinger — a San Jose-based cloud/telecoms company — which will service all markets outside of North America from a new Dublin-based operation.
