Klaviyo’s CTO explained that ‘Dublin will own core parts of how Klaviyo’s platform works, not support them from the sidelines’.

Boston-headquartered email, SMS and marketing automation platform Klaviyo has announced a significant investment into its engineering capabilities amid the next phase of its growth plans and the deepening of its “long-term commitment to the Irish technology community”. 

In early 2025, Klaviyo announced the creation of 100 new jobs at its Barrow Street location and now, the organisation said it is looking to build on the roles already created by developing an engineering team that will take direct ownership of core systems powering Klaviyo’s AI strategy, including messaging infrastructure, data analytics and personalisation across marketing, service and analytics.

Currently open engineering roles include opportunities in senior software engineering, engineering management, infrastructure security and internal platform development, with further positions expected as the team scales throughout 2026.

“Dublin will own core parts of how Klaviyo’s platform works, not support them from the sidelines,” said Surabhi Gupta, CTO at Klaviyo.

“We’re looking for engineers who want to solve genuinely hard problems, building reliable, high-performance systems at scale. The people joining us here will ship features that reach millions and push what’s possible with AI and data.”

The Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment Peter Burke, TD said, “Klaviyo’s decision to establish an engineering hub in Dublin is a strong endorsement of Ireland as a first-class location for AI innovation. This investment highlights the strength of our engineering talent and our ability to support high-growth companies.”

Ben Jackson, the managing director and vice-president for EMEA at Klaviyo, said that for engineers in Dublin, the work could mean “working with billions of data points daily at the scale of a large platform, with the pace and ambition of a company that has a significant runway ahead. It’s a core part of how we’re building Klaviyo’s future”.
