It said it will be hiring software engineers at its Dublin Innovation Centre within the next year and it will see further expansion in 2020.
CEO and President of Deem John F. Rizzo said: "Dublin is the ideal location for our new European Innovation Centre.
“It's a world-renowned hub for technology, innovation and excellence with an exceptional number of skilled workers, great international connections and a high standard of living.
“Expanding into Dublin will allow us to pursue our mission - to transform corporate travel - faster than ever before.
“Business travellers from around the world are counting on Deem to take the frustration and uncertainty out of booking and managing their trips, and travel managers are relying on us to help them save time and money for their companies."
The announcement of these new jobs has been supported by the Government with IDA Ireland.
Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation Heather Humphreys said: “I am delighted to welcome Deem to Dublin. Ireland is well-established as a vibrant technology hub, and the opening of this new innovation centre in Dublin is a welcome addition to that landscape.
“This announcement is a reflection of how attractive Ireland is to companies operating in the tech sector. We have the skills and talent available to enable the company to grow and to embed their operations here and I look forward to their continued expansion and success over the coming years.”

I wish Deem every success in establishing their Irish operations here and offer the continued support of IDA Ireland."
