Companies in Dublin, Ireland that want to employ engineering talent in India without opening a local entity can use Pitch N Hire as their Employer of Record. PNH legally employs each hire on your behalf and manages payroll, tax, benefits and statutory compliance, so a Dublin business can build a compliant offshore team quickly and focus on the work rather than the paperwork.
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs workers on your behalf in a country where you have no entity, taking on payroll, tax withholding, benefits, contracts and statutory compliance while the worker delivers under your day-to-day direction. Pitch N Hire's EOR strength is India: it lets a business anywhere hire and retain Indian engineering talent compliantly — with correct employment contracts, payroll and provident-fund/tax handling — without registering an Indian subsidiary. This removes the cost, delay and legal risk of setting up a foreign entity, and pairs naturally with staff augmentation when you want PNH to both source and employ your offshore team.
You identify the person you want to employ in India — either someone Pitch N Hire sourced for you, or a candidate you found yourself who you want employed compliantly.
PNH issues a locally-compliant Indian employment contract with the correct terms, benefits and statutory entitlements, so the engagement is legally sound from day one.
The employee is onboarded onto PNH's Indian payroll, with tax, provident fund and benefits configured correctly — no Indian entity or local finance function needed on your side.
The employee works under your day-to-day direction, in your tools and process, while PNH remains the legal employer of record for compliance purposes.
PNH runs monthly payroll, tax filings, statutory contributions and HR administration, and keeps everything compliant as regulations change — you get a report, not a paperwork burden.
As your Employer of Record in India, Pitch N Hire takes on the full employment burden:
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.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Dublin team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
