Website: http://www.xilinx.com/hr.html
Programmable microchip company Xilinx will add more than 100 staff to its tally in Ireland, as part of a €34m investment in expanding its facilities in Dublin and Cork.
The company will recruit 75 senior silicon and electronics engineering staff for its regional headquarters in Dublin and for its engineering centre in Cork. Additionally, 25 new employees will be hired for business disciplines supporting the continued growth of Xilinx in Ireland.
Xilinx makes programmable logic technologies, immensely powerful microchips that can be programmed – after they are made – into a diverse range of electronic systems across the ICT industry.
Xilinx first established operations in Dublin in 1995 and now employs 350 at its EMEA headquarters in Citywest, where it operates a research, product development, engineering and IT centre along with supply, finance, legal and HR functions. Xilinx has had R&D operations in Cork since 2001.
