Sonatus, a leading automotive software company accelerating the transition to software-defined vehicles (SDVs), today announced it has opened an R&D and engineering center in Dublin, Ireland, to expand its engineering and business capabilities. With the importance of Europe as a hub for many major automotive manufacturers, Sonatus is deploying seasoned talent to expand its footprint and enable closer collaboration across this important region and beyond. Establishing this new center will support the company’s service to existing and future customers.
“Software technology in vehicles is accelerating and Sonatus is at the forefront of working with vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers to enable the future capabilities consumers will demand,” said Jeff Chou, co-founder and CEO of Sonatus. “We are investing in developing an R&D and engineering center in Ireland to ensure we can respond effectively to the needs of our customers globally.”
Sonatus has hired a local management team responsible for this new center, comprising seasoned business and technical leaders. Serving as General Manager of the Ireland office and overseeing business operations is Marc Synnott, who brings over 20 years of management and financial experience to Sonatus. Business and technical staff in the new Dublin center, spanning a range of disciplines, will work closely with other Sonatus design centers around the world.
