IT company Avocent International has announced a restructuring programme that will see it cut 57 jobs at its Shannon plant and seven in Dublin.
The firm will reduce its Shannon workforce from 160 to 103, with the redundancies starting in August.
Avocent, which is part of the Avocent Corporation based in the US, says the cuts will affect certain research and development, marketing and technical support functions.
It will also impact on the transfer of its Asia operations from Shannon to its newly established operations in Singapore.
The functions of Avocent's Dublin office will also be transferred to the US, resulting in seven redundancies.
Avocent says the move is designed to enhance competitiveness, improve efficiency and reduce its costs across its European locations.
Shannon will still remain as the company's support centre for Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
Last summer the company warned that it was directly impacted by Aer Lingus' decision to abandon its daily Shannon to Heathrow service.
Avocent's products include technology which allows a single computer operator to control multiple computers from a remote location.
