Citi’s engineering roles generally involve collaboration across countries and business functions, with a strong emphasis on resilience, cybersecurity, regulatory controls and modern software delivery.

Working in Ireland

Ireland offers strong opportunities in technology, financial services, pharmaceuticals, medical devices and multinational business, particularly in Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. The culture is generally friendly, sociable and informal, with English widely used in workplaces. Dublin provides excellent restaurants, music, sports and international connections, while smaller cities and coastal areas offer a quieter lifestyle. Housing, especially in Dublin, can be expensive and competitive, so arranging accommodation early is important. Non-EEA professionals normally need an employment permit; software developers may qualify for a Critical Skills Employment Permit when the role, salary and qualifications meet current requirements. The permit can support family relocation and later residence options. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens generally do not need an employment permit. New arrivals should arrange a Personal Public Service number, bank account, tax registration and private health cover where appropriate.
