As first revealed by the Limerick Leader last September, Jaguar Land Rover, which is headquartered in the United Kingdom, says 150 people will be employed at the new facility which will play important role in realising the company's vision for electric and automated driving vehicles.

The new facility will help develop new technologies and system for future electric and self-driving vehicles.

"The heart of our business will always be in the UK". Jaguar Land Rover are iconic brands which have endured through innovation and staying ahead of their competitors. This new software engineering centre will bring 150 new high-quality jobs to Shannon.

Welcoming confirmation of the multi-million euro investment, Martin Shanahan, ceo of the IDA, said: "This is excellent news".


He said that the company is now looking for software engineers with experience in artificial intelligence, safety critical systems and vehicle architecture.

The firm's first fully electric SUV, the Jaguar I-Pace, goes on sale later this year. Jaguar Land Rover is developing new automated technologies to offer customers a choice of engaged or autonomous driving.

It is after Jaguar Land Rover confirmed plans to set up in the Shannon Free Zone, based beside Shannon Airport.

Shannon Group has said that the announcement is a "major validation" of the investment programme underway at the Shannon Free Zone.
