Hire Remote Cloud Engineers in Ireland
Hiring cloud engineers in Ireland is slow and expensive. OSCABE gives EU companies dedicated, fully-managed cloud engineers from India and the Middle East from £2,600 per month, typically around 53% below the local cost of a comparable in-house hire. OSCABE vets, employs, manages and pays each cloud engineer under one UK contract, so you get a dedicated team member without opening an overseas entity.

Dublin-led demand from multinationals keeps salaries high. The table below compares the indicative local cost of an in-house hire with a dedicated, fully-managed OSCABE professional. Figures are indicative estimates in GBP; OSCABE bills monthly in GBP or EUR.

|---|---|---|---|
| Mid-level | £66,300 | £2,600/mo | £35,100 |
| Senior | £107,100 | £4,800/mo | £49,500 |
