If you're just focusing in the European Union, it's definitely Ireland.
Stripe, Square, Microsoft, Google, etc will all pay more in Ireland than they pay in any other EU country.
The problem with Ireland is that you will get no real benefit from the taxes you pay.
If you have family, you'll probably be better off moving to Germany or the Netherlands. There are some serious tax benefits for couples and parents. You will not get that in Ireland.
Specifically, someone close to me left Meta Dublin and moved to Google Berlin and had more money (post taxes) in Germany despite a significant TC cut.
If you don't care about EU, Switzerland. High cost of living but Meta, Google, and Nvidia will offer a salary comparable to the US and lower taxes than the rest of Europe.
Crazy expensive housing, and lot of people cannot even find a place after 6 months moving into the country. Please if someone wants to move to ireland, research about housing first.
