Full 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 VEIR is seeking a qualified Lead Engineer to join our System Integration & Heat Transfer team.  This individual will play a key role helping characterize our superconducting cable through testbed design, operation, and data analysis. This individual will also assist in design efforts of our proprietary superconducting cable termination. What You'll Do Design and operate new testbeds to measure key electrical, thermal, and mechanical performance metrics relevant to the lifetime operation of a superconducting cable. Analyze experimental data, leveraging domain expertise, published literature and reference material, to derive performance insights relevant to cable design. Assist in design of subcomponents of the cable termination system involving design reviews, vendor management, procurements, testing, and analysis Skills You Have 5+ years of experience in mechanical, electrical, thermal, or comparable engineering, with a strong foundation in cryogenic or other thermal systems, electrical engineering basics, test design, and data analysis Experience in testbed design including sensor selection, setup, and LABVIEW, experience in testing of electrical components a plus.
