An Indian software engineer working at Amazon's Dublin office recently shared his financial breakdown in an Instagram video, revealing his annual salary ranges from €70,000 to €90,000 (approximately ₹75-96 lakh). He noted that his monthly expenses are around €3,000 (about ₹3.2 lakh), allowing him to save between 30% and 40% of his income during good months. The engineer expressed his preference for Dublin over Seattle, highlighting the warmth of the Irish people and the city's peaceful atmosphere. Dublin has become a significant hub for Indian professionals and students, with enrolments increasing by 30% year-on-year, reaching about 13,000 students for the 2024-25 academic year. This growth is attributed to Ireland's status as the only English-speaking country in the European Union and its high-quality education system, which includes six universities ranked among the top 500 globally.
