Job Description

WHY VEIR?

Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, VEIR is a U.S.-based designer and manufacturer of category-defining superconducting power delivery systems built for the extreme energy demands of the AI era. By commercializing next-generation superconducting technology into deployable, real-world systems, VEIR delivers ~10× higher power density than conventional options, enabling “speed-to-power” where incremental optimization falls short. VEIR’s initial focus is AI data centers behind the meter, with solutions engineered for repeatable deployment through reference designs and integrated controls, designed to incorporate learnings as deployments scale.

The Role

As VEIR’s Solutions Engineer for Medium Voltage, you’ll serve as the technical bridge between our customers, commercial team, and internal engineering groups. You’ll play a pivotal role in helping customers identify opportunities to integrate VEIR’s medium voltage cable systems into their projects, from substations to data centers to behind-the-meter power distribution applications.

This role is ideal for someone who brings a strong electrical engineering foundation, understands the practical realities of medium voltage systems and substation design, and thrives at the intersection of technical problem-solving and customer collaboration.

You’ll be a commercial-facing engineer who combines technical depth with customer intuition. You’ll work directly with potential customers to evaluate project fit, review one-lines and interconnection layouts, and provide recommendations on how VEIR’s medium voltage solutions can unlock new performance, efficiency, and cost advantages. Inside VEIR, you’ll serve as the conduit between customer requirements and internal engineering deliverables, helping ensure that our product and technology roadmap align with market needs and real project applications.

In the first three months you will...

• Develop a deep understanding of VEIR’s medium voltage cable technology, termination units, and cryogenic cooling systems.
• Learn about VEIR’s current and future product offerings, performance characteristics, and system integration requirements.
• Build foundational knowledge of VEIR’s target markets, including utility, renewable, and data center power distribution applications.
• Shadow customer and partner meetings to observe how VEIR positions its technology and communicates technical value.
• Begin developing familiarity with electrical schematics, protection and control diagrams, and substation interconnection design practices.

In the first six months you will...

• Take ownership of technical scoping conversations with customers and partners, identifying where VEIR’s medium voltage technology can be applied. Specifically identifying compatible substations equipment to interconnect our cables.
• Review and interpret customer design packages (one-lines, site plans, protection and control schemes) to assess integration opportunities.
• Collaborate with VEIR’s engineering and product teams to translate customer needs into defined technical requirements and early project concepts.
• Support the development of technical presentations, application notes, and customer proposals.
• Contribute to pilot opportunity identification by mapping VEIR’s capabilities to upcoming customer or market projects.

By the end of your first year you will...

• Serve as the primary technical liaison for selected customer engagements or pilot projects.
• Lead design reviews and integration discussions with EPCs, utilities, and data center engineering teams.
• Help guide the engineering and product teams in refining system designs based on customer feedback and field insights.
• Represent VEIR at customer sites, industry events, and design meetings to advocate for the adoption of VEIR’s technology.
• Contribute directly to securing VEIR’s first medium voltage pilot or commercial project, helping bring superconducting cable solutions to market.

To be successful in this role...

• A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (Civil or Mechanical Engineering considered with relevant experience).
• 5-10 years of experience in electrical design or field engineering related to medium voltage systems (sub 69kV), substation design, or power transmission & distribution.
• Familiarity with one-line diagrams, and electrical interconnection design and protection and control schemes.
• Experience specifying and selecting substation switchgear.
• Experience supporting construction or project execution activities (EPC, owner’s engineer, or similar).
• Familiar with NESC, NEC, IEEE, IEC standards.
• Familiar with standards for power and transmission distribution systems.
• Strong understanding of power system fundamentals, equipment ratings, and interconnection standards.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively with both customers and internal engineering teams.
• (Nice to have) Prior experience as a Field Engineer or involvement in installation, testing or commissioning medium voltage equipment or systems.
