Summary

Oracle has started a collective redundancy process in Ireland and plans to cut 70 jobs this year as it trims costs to fund expansion into AI infrastructure and data centres. The cuts are reported to be mostly in engineering and development roles, with some sales and finance positions also expected to be eliminated; the company employs around 650 people in the Republic after prior redundancies. The move follows broader global restructuring in which Oracle reduced headcount by about 21,000 employees (around 13%) and paid roughly $1.84 billion in severance and exit costs in the year to May. Irish authorities, including the Minister for Enterprise, have been notified of the planned collective redundancy. Oracle did not respond to requests for comment in the article.

Oracle Corporation cut 70 jobs affecting its engineering and development (mostly); some sales and finance team.
