This role supports the design and delivery of electrical systems for Amazon data-centre communities in Ireland. Requirements typically include a degree or equivalent qualification in electrical engineering, professional experience with electrical design and construction projects, and familiarity with power distribution, protection systems, generators, UPS equipment, controls, and relevant Irish and European standards. Experience using design tools, reviewing technical drawings, managing contractors, and coordinating multidisciplinary teams is valuable. The successful candidate is expected to produce reliable, safe, and cost-effective designs, support project planning and commissioning, identify technical risks, maintain high engineering standards, and communicate clearly with internal teams, consultants, suppliers, and construction partners. Data-centre, industrial, mission-critical, or large commercial project experience would be advantageous.
Amazon is a global technology and commerce company founded in the United States. Its businesses include online retail, logistics, digital media, consumer devices, advertising, and Amazon Web Services (AWS), one of the world's largest cloud-computing platforms. Amazon operates extensive corporate, fulfilment, technology, and data-centre infrastructure internationally. In Ireland, it has major operations in Dublin and other locations, including AWS infrastructure and teams working in engineering, operations, finance, customer support, and cloud services. The company is known for a customer-focused culture, rapid innovation, large-scale technical projects, and leadership principles that emphasise ownership, high standards, and data-driven decision-making. Employees may receive competitive pay, equity awards, health benefits, pension support, and opportunities to work on complex international programmes, although workloads can be demanding and performance expectations are high.
Ireland offers opportunities in technology, cloud computing, data centres, engineering, pharmaceuticals, finance, construction, and multinational services. Dublin is the main employment hub, while Cork, Galway, Limerick, and Waterford also have strong specialist sectors. Irish workplace culture is generally collaborative, informal, and communication-oriented, with English widely used professionally. The lifestyle combines lively cities, coastal scenery, music, sport, and easy access to countryside, although housing costs and availability—especially in Dublin—can be challenging. EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens can generally live and work without an employment permit. Non-EEA candidates usually need an appropriate employment permit, such as a Critical Skills Employment Permit, depending on salary, occupation, and qualifications. Candidates should secure an offer, confirm permit eligibility, arrange accommodation, obtain a Personal Public Service number, and review tax, healthcare, banking, and transport arrangements before relocating.
