.NET Development Company in Dublin

We are not headquartered in Dublin, but we work with Dublin clients across Tech, FinTech, and Pharma on remote .NET development engagements with GMT morning overlap daily. QServices is a remote-first .NET development company serving Irish businesses that need custom applications and APIs on the Microsoft stack.

What Dublin buyers typically need from .NET development

Dublin sits at the intersection of EU regulation and a dense concentration of global tech and financial services firms. The projects we see from this market fall into recognisable patterns:

• FinTech and payments platforms that must meet Central Bank of Ireland authorisation requirements and handle personal financial data under EU GDPR, with audit logs baked into the application layer from the start.
• Tech companies building internal platforms or customer-facing APIs, often modernising .NET Framework applications to .NET 8 on Azure App Service.
• Pharma and life sciences firms managing operational or clinical data under GDPR, where data residency within the EU and role-based access controls are engineering requirements, not compliance checkboxes.

Common project types: RESTful API platforms, payment gateway integrations, legacy .NET Framework to .NET 8 migrations, and Azure-hosted microservices. Because Ireland's Data Protection Commission enforces GDPR directly and the Central Bank of Ireland sets standards for financial software, Dublin clients typically need compliance addressed in the architecture document, not bolted on after launch.

How we work with Dublin clients

Our engineers are in India (IST, UTC+5:30). Dublin runs on GMT. That puts 5.5 hours between us, which means when your day starts at 9am GMT, it is 2:30pm for our team. We protect that window for live calls: standups, sprint demos, and any decision that needs both sides present. Outside that window, we work async, and every decision is written down before the next day starts.

We run two-week sprints with a demo at the end of each. You get continuous access to the staging environment throughout, so there are no surprises at handover. Code reviews happen in pull requests on GitHub or Azure DevOps, all in English. We do not require on-site visits, though we can discuss travel for a project kickoff if that matters to your team.

On every engagement we apply a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) governance model: no significant architectural or design decision is finalised without a named sign-off from your side. For Dublin clients operating under Central Bank of Ireland oversight or GDPR audit requirements, that paper trail is not optional.

Relevant work in similar markets

We do not have a published case study from an Irish client. Our closest relevant work is in FinTech, which is Dublin's primary industry sector. For more on this area, see our .NET development for FinTech work.

For SomBank, we built the first digital payment platform for an Islamic bank in Somalia. The stack included .NET, Azure Service Bus, Azure B2C, RabbitMQ, and Ocelot API Gateway. The platform reached 100,000+ downloads with a 4.8-star rating at launch, handling P2P transfers, merchant QR payments, and international remittances. This is the kind of regulated financial infrastructure Dublin FinTech firms need: .NET at scale with documented API contracts and controlled data flows.

For Varipay, we built a cross-border payment gateway aggregator connecting Stripe, PayPal, Wise, and regional gateways for a Jamaica-based remittance business. Using .NET microservices, we reduced transaction fees by approximately 30% through optimised gateway routing and cut settlement times from 3-5 days to under 24 hours, with a unified reconciliation engine and full audit trail.

Both projects involved .NET backends under financial regulatory pressure. Dublin's FinTech and Pharma sectors face comparable demands: traceability, controlled data flows, and documented integration contracts.

What .NET development costs for a typical Dublin project

We price in USD. For .NET development engagements, most projects run $20,000-$200,000 over 8-24 weeks. See our full .NET development pricing page for a breakdown. Here is how scope maps to budget:

• Small ($2,000-$8,000): 80-200 hours. A single API service, a proof-of-concept, or a third-party integration.
• Medium ($8,000-$30,000): 200-600 hours. A standalone application, a platform module, or a focused legacy migration.
• Large ($30,000-$120,000): 600-2,000 hours. Multi-service platforms, full product builds, or multi-phase migrations.
• Platform ($120,000-$400,000): 2,000-6,000 hours. Enterprise systems with multiple integrations and longer delivery timelines.

For Dublin clients in FinTech or Pharma, add 15-25% for regulatory overhead covering GDPR data-handling requirements and Central Bank of Ireland compliance documentation. Each non-trivial third-party integration typically adds $3,000-$12,000. All figures are in USD; EUR conversion is at your bank's rate.

How to start working with us

Three steps. First, book a 30-minute discovery call where we learn about your project and you ask us anything. Second, we produce a scoping document within five business days, covering timeline, technology choices, cost range, and assumptions. Third, once you approve the scope, the project starts. No retainer required before the scoping document is in your hands.

Do you have an office in Dublin?

No. QServices is a remote-first consultancy based in India. We work with Dublin clients entirely remotely. The GMT morning window (typically 9am-1pm GMT) is when we schedule live calls, using Microsoft Teams or Slack. For data residency, we default to Azure EU regions: Ireland and Netherlands satisfy GDPR requirements and any Central Bank of Ireland data-handling expectations. We are not a regulated financial services firm; if your project requires a Central Bank-authorised vendor, you will need a locally authorised partner alongside our engineering team.
