Technical Lead- Data Centers

Woburn, Massachusetts, United States

WHY VEIR?

VEIR is enabling a new generation of compact, efficient, high-power, and long-distance power delivery solutions, solving bottlenecks that exist across the entire electricity value chain, from generation through to data center server racks. VEIR's low voltage superconducting solutions are enabling new power delivery architectures in the world’s largest data centers and our higher voltage solutions are poised to revolutionize the development of electricity transmission and distribution lines.  VEIR is preparing for rapid growth as we seek to solve critical challenges facing data center developers, electricity generation developers, and utilities around the world.

The Role

VEIR is seeking a Technical Lead – Data Centers, to join our Product Team, who will serve as the technical expert on both VEIR’s superconducting cable technology and the power infrastructure needs of data centers.

  • Collaborate closely with VEIR’s engineering, sales, and product teams to align solutions with customer requirements 
  • Be an internal data center expert and resource for building VEIR’s collective knowledge about data center power systems design and configurations 

In the first six months you will... 

  • You’ll have contributed to VEIR booking our first pilot project with a customer 
  • You’ll use your expertise to design power distribution solutions that integrate VEIR’s HTS cables with medium voltage (MV) switchgear, transformers, and circuit breakers 
  • You'll conduct technical assessments, feasibility studies, and proof-of-concept projects to demonstrate the benefits of VEIR’s technology 
  • You’ll collaborate closely with VEIR’s engineering, sales, and product teams to align solutions with customer requirements 

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

  • You’ll have used your expertise to work with hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise data center customers to understand their power infrastructure needs, pain points, and future growth strategies. 
  • You'll begin contributing to the execution of VEIR's first commercial project
  • You'll have begun supporting the development of VEIR's next generation of products

To be successful in this role... 

  • You bring at least 10+ years of professional experience in data center power infrastructure, electrical engineering, and/or power distribution design 
  • You have a deep understanding of the diversity of existing data center architectures and know what factors ultimately drive specific technology and vendor selections when it comes to deploying new data center capacity 
  • You have experience with product design, development and deployment 
  • You’ll have worked with hyperscale data center owners, col-location companies, design-builders, general contractors, and the major electrical OEM’s. You bring expertise in low and medium voltage (480V-35kV) power systems, electrical schematics, and protection & coordination studies 
  • You bring experience working with data center customers to understand their needs and be able to drive adoption of VEIR’s solutions and proposed data center configurations, based on those specific customer needs 
  • You have a strong understanding of data center electrical infrastructure, including switchgear, circuit breakers, transformers, PDUs, UPS systems, and redundancy planning 
  • You are knowledgeable about NEC, IEEE, NFPA, and Uptime Institute Tier Standards 
  • You are an outstanding communicator (written and verbal). You can clearly communicate goals, findings, and issues across all levels of the organization and can work effectively in a fast-paced environment. 
  • You are a highly motivated, self-starter who is detail-oriented with a positive approach to problem solving.  
  • You can work autonomously, with limited direction AND collaboratively across different departments, stakeholders, and customers to launch new products and continuously evaluate the performance of existing products.  
  • You are driven by results - you gauge your success in measurable positive impact (not in how much you check off the to do list) and know how to ruthlessly prioritize.
  • Able to manage a diverse set of opinions, advice, and recommendations and resolve conflicts effectively. 
  • You are highly curious and solutions-oriented, and excel at deconstructing complex problems into manageable components to develop effective solutions

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
