Published on:
Huawei is opening a new R&D centre spread across two sites in Ireland and will be doubling its local workforce with the addition of a further 50 jobs. The recruitment process has already begun and 12 positions have already been filled.
Initially the centre will focus on Huawei's Customer Experience Management Product, SmartCare, supporting the company in providing customer services to telecoms operators both in Ireland and internationally. Future expansion at the sites will extend R&D functions to cover a wider range of IT software projects.
The initiative, which represents am investment by Huawei over several years, is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through IDA Ireland -- the Government Agency responsible for the development of foreign direct investment in Ireland.
Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton TD, said: "Huawei is one of the companies that I met on my recent trade mission to China and today's announcement that they are opening a new research and development centre creating an additional 50 new jobs in Ireland is very welcome."
Huawei was first established its Irish sales office in 2004.
