Careers 2017: ON Semiconductor seeking to fill quality roles

ON Semiconductor Ireland’s design centre in Raheen, Limerick, started in 2008 with 26 engineers, and has steadily grown to almost 60 engineers today.

The parent company, which is based in Phoenix, Arizona, is originally a spin-out, from Motorola back in 1999, and is now a top 20 semiconductor supplier with a total revenue of about $5bn and about 30,000 employees all over the globe, having grown through a mixture of acquisition and organic investment during the intervening time.

The team in Limerick is based in an exciting, new, purpose-built 22,000 sq ft design centre which the company acquired and fitted out to a very modern specification in early 2013. It was officially opened by Finance Minister Michael Noonan in September 2013.
