US audio entertainment company SiriusXM has today (14 November) announced the creation of 200 new jobs in Ireland to be filled over the next few years. The news was unveiled at the grand opening of the platform’s new Dublin-based technology hub, which was announced this summer.
Headquartered in New York, SiriusXM was founded after a merger in 2008 and has more than 33m subscribers worldwide.
With support from IDA Ireland, the company is looking to hire roughly 200 professionals in the areas of software development, automotive technology, engineering, adtech and data science analytics, many of whom will be responsible for the development of scalable software for SiriusXM’s streaming services and entertainment platforms.
The Dublin team will modernise SiriusXM’s adtech infrastructure, working on efficiency and scalability, as well as creating new solutions for music discovery, content engagement and subscription enhancement, the company said.
