"This new engineering centre will service existing US customers as well as support expansion into the UK and European markets."
"The company has two other engineering centres in Mexico but has chosen to open this latest centre in Belfast due to the availability of a strong pool of software engineers and our ability to offer support towards securing the project for Northern Ireland.
"The company uses innovative technology which will not only enhance the technical capability within Northern Ireland, contributing towards the expansion of our ICT sector, but will also give experienced software developers new skills and exposure to new technology."
The new jobs will offer an average salary of £37,000.
Mike Barrett, CEO, Unosquare said: "Global demand for high-end software development continues to grow. Companies have more software engineering needs than engineers to deliver.
