Assystem will specialise in aerospace design engineering at a new base in the Harbour Estate. The company has already taken on 30 staff and plans to recruit at least another 20 for its Old Channel Road location.
Invest NI has offered financial support of £250,000 towards Assystem's investment of just over £900,000.
Belfast was just one of a number of potential EU locations considered by the French company, which is seeking to expand its network of engineering offices.
