Healthcare software provider Dedalus has announced it will create 100 jobs over the next four years as part of a €10 million expansion of its Irish operations.
The company is a large-scale provider of electronic health records.
The expansion will bring Dedalus's total Irish workforce to 150 people, increasing headcount across software engineering, product management, clinical informatics, data and analytics, cybersecurity, and implementation services.
The company currently partners with the HSE and a range of hospitals across the country.
In 2021, Dedalus acquired the online healthcare appointment platform Swiftqueue, which manages over four million appointments annually across Ireland’s healthcare system.
"This investment allows us to expand our Irish team and capabilities, supporting hospitals and community services with interoperable electronic health records, diagnostics and imaging platforms, clinical decision support, and integration services," said Executive Director of Dedalus Healthcare Ireland Cathy McCartan.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin said the expansion is a welcome boost to Ireland's digital health ambitions.
"These 100 new jobs will support the delivery of better, more connected healthcare services while reinforcing Ireland as a key player in the European health technology ecosystem," Mr Martin said.
The investment is supported by IDA Ireland.
"These highly skilled roles will contribute to innovation in patient care and strengthen Ireland’s position within a dynamic European health-tech sector," the chief executive of IDA Ireland Michael Lohan said.
