To hire developers in Dublin, companies can pair local recruitment for on-site roles with offshore staff augmentation to add vetted engineers from India without a new entity. Dublin hosts the EMEA headquarters of much of global tech, making it Ireland's dominant — and most competitive — talent market. Pitch N Hire helps Dublin teams recruit locally or scale an offshore team in weeks.
Dublin is the anchor of Ireland's technology economy and the chosen EMEA headquarters for a striking concentration of global software, social, cloud and payments companies, clustered heavily around the Silicon Docks district by the Grand Canal. That density of large employers absorbs much of the local engineering supply, so demand for backend, cloud, data and platform talent consistently exceeds availability and compensation runs high across the city.
Dublin talent is highly international and product-mature, shaped by years inside large multinational engineering orgs, with deep pools in cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), backend Java and Python, data engineering, and site reliability. Because the biggest names compete for the same senior people, hiring is expensive and slow-moving locally, which is a common reason Dublin teams blend in offshore engineers for added capacity.
Dublin commands Ireland's highest developer pay, with senior software engineers frequently in the region of EUR 70k-100k plus employer costs, driven upward by multinational competition and high living costs. Offshore augmentation from India typically delivers comparable seniority at a materially lower blended rate, which is why cost-conscious Dublin scale-ups run hybrid on-site plus offshore teams.
For Dublin founders and engineering leaders, the fastest route to added capacity is often an offshore pod: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlaps several working hours with Irish time for daily collaboration, and handles employment and compliance through its Employer of Record, so there is no Irish entity to set up and no competition with the multinationals for scarce local hires.
Dublin's Silicon Docks hosts the EMEA headquarters of many of the world's largest tech firms, giving the city an unusually deep concentration of platform, cloud and payments engineering roles for its size.
Split your roles into those that must be on-site in Dublin and those an offshore engineer can own. Pitch N Hire can recruit the local roles and augment the rest with vetted India-based talent.
Write a clear brief — stack, seniority, and the outcomes each hire must deliver — so sourcing is targeted and every shortlisted candidate is genuinely qualified for your Dublin team.
PNH sources from its India talent pool for augmentation, or runs local recruitment for Dublin roles, screening every candidate with structured interviews and skills assessments.
You interview your shortlist with structured scorecards and make every hiring decision — PNH surfaces qualified people; you choose who joins.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record and onboarded into your tools and sprints, so your Dublin team gains capacity in weeks — then scales up or down as needed.
Whether you recruit locally or build an offshore team, Pitch N Hire helps Dublin companies hire across the full engineering stack and the roles around it:
Matched shortlists from a pre-vetted India talent pool in days — far quicker than a local Dublin permanent hire.
