Stripe, the online payments company founded by Patrick and John Collison, intends to create hundreds of additional engineering jobs in Dublin after securing an e-money licence from the Central Bank. The new licence allows Stripe to continue to process payments for users across Europe regardless of the outcome of Brexit negotiations. It’s our fastest-growing office and our first international engineering hub with over 150 employees. San Francisco-headquartered Stripe is one of a small number of companies to secure a so-called electronic money institution licence from the Central Bank in recent years. The local hub employs staff across a number of areas including core payments engineering, developer productivity, merchant intelligence and security engineering.
