Ireland has started building again, and not just buildings. Key sectors include industrial products and services, aerospace, automotive and clean tech. Not only is there a demand for engineering services within Ireland, but Irish engineering firms export 4.2 billion in exports annually.

There is a drive in Ireland to encourage young people in primary and secondary education to choose STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) as there is a serious need for quality STEM graduates, in particular engineers. 

Many of the key global players in engineering have long established bases in Ireland, but there is a healthy cohort of smaller indigenous firms all over the country. You will be working with and learning from very high-calibre employers who need and value your input.  Not all sectors can offer remote work, but the ones who do have specific projects in mind for you and will need you to be on your best game to complete their projects to a very high standard.

Opportunities are currently only available in Ireland.
