The Tricity is increasingly marking its position on the IT map of Poland and aims to be one of the largest IT hubs of the future, not only in the country but also across Europe. More organizations are investing in the local, ever-growing IT market, including GlobalLogic, a leader in digital product engineering. In 2022, the company will open its Gdańsk office, and hire over 100 specialists of various profiles.
The Polish IT sector is developing dynamically and providing professional support for dozens of industries and companies operating in the country and around the world. Its strong position is associated with successive developing points on the IT map of the country, where talented specialists can easily find a job and develop by implementing original and innovative projects. Tricity is without a doubt one of them.
This is where the new office of GlobalLogic, a Hitachi group company, will be established to help brands around the world design and create innovative products, platforms and digital experiences. The company’s headquarters is located in Silicon Valley, it has offices and Engineering Centers across the world, including several Polish cities: Wrocław, Kraków and Szczecin. The Gdansk office will be the next big step in the company’s expansion in Eastern Europe. The new office will be mainly focusing on developing projects related to IoT (Internet of Things). Because of the high-level competencies of local developers, Tricity will also provide strong support for projects in other trending areas such as embedded systems, cloud services, mobile applications, automotive etc.

For over 20 years, GlobalLogic has partnered with businesses across every major industry to make amazing products.

The close second reason was the quality of life. Tricity is a perfect place to live which guarantees top-notch talents will be willing to work and relocate here.
- Tricity is a very hospitable place, we’re always happy to welcome new citizens and new businesses. I’m glad that GlobalLogic was able to spot our potential.
