Take your pick from these companies – and more – hiring all types of engineers in Ireland. Sectors range from aerospace to medical devices.
It’s no secret that engineers are always in big demand, and there were a lot of companies that could have made this list of employers looking for talent – but we didn’t want to go on forever. For this taster list, we have included a broad sample of sectors recruiting engineers; you’ll find everything from software engineer positions to manufacturing and quality engineer roles.
We’ve also tried to keep the geographical spread as broad as possible. Yes, a lot of the roles are based in Galway, Cork, Belfast and Dublin, but there are some roles based in Waterford, Leitrim and Kildare. Remote and flexible working practices are a big draw, as recent research on software engineers in Ireland has found.
If you’re a jobseeker, after you have looked into some of the roles on this list you might want to read in further detail about what these jobs entail – especially if you’re new to engineering. As part of Engineers Week 2024, we have heard from engineers working at the likes of PwC, Deloitte and Integral Ad Science. The latter features on this year’s list.
