01Dublin

Senior engineering for Dublin product teams.

Dublin is the EU's largest concentration of US-headquartered tech and FinTech EU offices, plus a substantial regulated-payments and platform-engineering scene. We engage with Dublin product teams remotely from Bangalore, with on-site visits at kickoff and milestones.

Hotreloads is headquartered in Bangalore. Dublin engagements run remotely with planned on-site visits for kickoff and key milestones.

02Local context

What Dublin is known for.

The Dublin market splits into two halves. The first is the EU operational base for major US platform and FinTech companies (Stripe's largest EU office, Google, Meta, plus payments and lending platforms that route through Ireland for EU passporting). The second is a homegrown FinTech and platform-engineering cohort that has matured around payments, Open Banking, and AI infrastructure.

The regulatory surface is the Central Bank of Ireland (CBI) plus EU-level frameworks (PSD2, GDPR, DORA, MiCA). The CBI has historically been an active and detail-oriented FinTech supervisor, which makes our audit-grade FinTech work translate directly.

Dublin is an eleven-hour flight from Bangalore and 5.5 hours behind IST. The cadence is async-first with a weekly live sync window and on-site weeks at kickoff and milestones.

FAQFrequently asked

Working with us in Dublin.

Do you have a Dublin office?
No. Hotreloads is Bangalore-headquartered. Dublin engagements run remotely with planned on-site visits at kickoff and milestones. The Dublin product-engineering culture is highly async-comfortable, partly because so many local teams are already operating across time zones.
Are you familiar with Central Bank of Ireland requirements?
Yes. The CBI's supervision of payment and e-money institutions, the Irish interpretation of PSD2, GDPR, and DORA, and the outsourcing rules that affect vendor selection. We do not replace your compliance counsel; we read the same regulatory texts they do.
How does the time-zone difference work?
Dublin is 5.5 hours behind IST. Weekly live syncs at 13:30 IST / 09:00 BST. Daily async collaboration through Slack and your repo. On-site weeks at kickoff and milestones, scoped into the engagement timeline. The eleven-hour flight makes on-site presence a planned event rather than a same-day option.
