Transact Campus, a US integrated payment and credential software solution company, is to create 110 new jobs in Limerick’s city centre.
The company said that this “next-generation digital campus project” will serve as its international headquarters with responsibility for shaping and developing the group’s portfolio of products and services.
Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Transact serves more than 1,300 educational institutions representing in excess of 12 million students and facilitating more than $46 billion (€39bn) in annual education-related payments. Transact’s software services include tuition and fee bill presentment and payment.
"It is with great excitement and appreciation that Transact announces our establishment of a new technology innovation centre in Limerick, Ireland, representing the final and critical component of our global vision and strategy. We are humbled to be so warmly welcomed into the Limerick community, and we thank the IDA for their meaningful partnership – without them none of this would be possible," said David Marr, chief executive of Transact Campus .
Transact plans to invest in multiple core workstreams that will exploit de-coupled micro-service architectures, cloud-based data analytics, CQRS patterns, asynchronous event-based integration models, data streaming, data lakes, and AI-linked analysis.
It is hiring for a number of open roles, including product managers, architects, scrum masters, UX designers and developers.
