Fixify establishes EU Centre of Excellence in Cork, creating 50 high-tech jobs in IT, software engineering and data analysis over 18 months.
AI-driven IT support automation company Fixify will establish its European centre of excellence in Cork, creating 50 jobs over the next 18 months as the company expands its operations across the continent.
The facility will serve as Fixify’s regional hub for development, support and customer success operations, with the Irish government backing the project through IDA Ireland.
“Establishing our base here enables us to tap into Ireland’s exceptional talent and contribute to its thriving tech ecosystem as we scale automation that remains genuinely human worldwide”
“We chose Cork for Fixify’s European base because it brings together deep technical expertise, quality of life and community spirit – the conditions that make great work last,” said Matt Peters, Fixify’s chief executive.
“Establishing our base here enables us to tap into Ireland’s exceptional talent and contribute to its thriving tech ecosystem as we scale automation that remains genuinely human worldwide.”
Deep tech required deep commitment
Taoiseach Micheál Martin, TD, welcomed the investment, saying it demonstrated “a deep commitment to the region” in a growing sector. The new roles will span IT, software engineering and data analysis.
Caroline Coughlan, Fixify’s director of employee experience and people operations, said the company would scale its Irish presence while “delivering outstanding value to our customers across EMEA” over the coming 18 months.
The company is currently recruiting IT helpdesk analysts, software engineers, data engineers and data scientists for the Cork operation.
Peter Burke, minister for enterprise, tourism and employment, described the decision as “a strong endorsement of Ireland’s position as a global leader in technology and innovation”. He highlighted Cork’s talent pool, supported by institutions including University College Cork and Munster Technological University, as key factors.
Michael Lohan, IDA Ireland’s chief executive, said the investment recognised “the quality and depth of the South West region’s talent pool, Ireland’s vibrant culture, and our pro-business environment.”
