Principal Engineer, Manufacturing Engineering at Analog Devices Limerick is a senior individual contributor role responsible for providing technical leadership across semiconductor manufacturing process integration, process enhancement, yield improvement and manufacturing efficiency, with specific accountability and Subject Matter Expert for the Deposition Work Centre.

Operating at P5 Principal level, the role requires deep subject matter expertise, sound technical judgement and the ability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives that improve process and  device performance, manufacturability, quality, reliability and cost effectiveness. The role will also demonstrate growth toward P6 Expert expectations by shaping technical direction, influencing broader manufacturing strategy, developing engineering capability across teams and driving solutions that have sustained impact beyond a single module, toolset or product family.

Key responsibilities of the role include: Technical Leadership and Manufacturing Strategy: act as a recognized technical authority for manufacturing engineering and process integration, setting direction for complex improvement programmes and influencing site-level technical priorities that support yield, quality, cycle time, reliability and capacity objectives. Process Integration and Optimization: lead the integration, optimization and control of complex semiconductor manufacturing processes, ensuring process modules, unit devices, E-test and probe outcomes are aligned to deliver robust, scalable and manufacturable solutions.

Deposition Work Center: serve as the primary technical expert for Deposition processes, equipment capability, process controls and improvement priorities, providing guidance on issue resolution, process stability, risk management and long-term capability development. Yield, Quality and Cost Improvement: identify and prioritize the major contributors to yield loss, process and device variation, scrap, rework and cost; develop data-led improvement strategies and partner with process, product, equipment, quality and operations teams to deliver measurable business impact.

Complex Problem Solving and Root Cause Leadership: lead structured investigations into high-impact manufacturing issues, applying advanced root cause analysis, statistical methods and technical judgement to resolve problems where solutions are not readily defined. New Technology and Process Flow Enablement: partner with R&D, process development, product engineering and operations to translate new technologies, materials, process flows and device requirements into stable production capability.

Data Analytics, Modelling and Predictive Control: use advanced data analysis, statistical process control, design of experiments and modelling approaches to identify trends, predict process risk and enable proactive decision-making across manufacturing operations. Cross-Functional Influence: lead and influence multi-disciplinary teams across manufacturing, process engineering, equipment engineering, product engineering, quality, planning and operations; communicate complex technical topics clearly to technical and senior business stakeholders.

Standards, Documentation and Knowledge Transfer: establish, improve and sustain technical standards, process documentation, control strategies and lessons learned to ensure repeatabl
