OpenAI Plans 250 Irish Jobs at New Dublin HQ

The new EU headquarters will span 88,000 square feet and add roles in engineering, sales and legal as demand grows across Europe.

  • On Monday, July 27, 2026, OpenAI announced it is leasing 88,000 square feet of office space in Dublin's Silicon Docks, tripling its European headquarters headcount to 350 with 250 new roles.
  • OpenAI established its European presence in 2023, and this expansion aims to meet rapidly growing demand from users and developers across the region while supporting the 'OpenAI for Ireland' programme.
  • "We continue to invest and grow in Ireland as we meet increasing demand across the region," said Emma Redmond, Associate General Counsel and Head of OpenAI Ireland.
  • The company plans to hire across engineering, sales, and legal departments, positioning itself within the European Union's AI Act jurisdiction while recruiting from a local workforce experienced in major technology operations.
  • This move supports long-term goals for an IPO, with the company ramping up efforts to reach a targeted valuation of around $1trn following a growth surge from around $29bn in 2023 to $852bn.
