About the Job

Requirements

  • A Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering is required; an advanced degree is a plus.
  • 5–10 years of combined experience in electrical engineering and hardware product management, with direct experience in power electronics or low-voltage power distribution systems.
  • Deep hands-on knowledge of low-voltage power distribution hardware, including cable conductors, busbars, and connectors; medium-voltage experience is strongly desirable.
  • Strong understanding of AC/DC electrical architectures used in data center power delivery, including distribution topologies, switchgear integration, and server rack power paths.
  • Strong command of the data center power electronics ecosystem, including familiarity with major suppliers and the competitive landscape across low-voltage distribution equipment.
  • Demonstrated experience defining and negotiating technical requirements and product specifications for NPI power electronics products, including fault current ratings, voltage drops, ripple specifications, and porting and connection interface requirements.
  • Hands-on experience managing NPI stage-gate lifecycles for physical hardware, from early concept through commercial launch.
  • Direct experience leading or supporting UL certification programs for power electronics or low-voltage electrical hardware; familiarity with NEC and IEC standards.
  • Experience translating customer and application requirements into clear, testable product specifications in collaboration with engineering teams.
  • Strong communication and cross-functional leadership skills, including the ability to drive alignment across engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and commercial stakeholders.

Responsibilities

  • Ramp up on VEIR's cable systems architecture, including system interfaces, installation methods, performance requirements, low-voltage power distribution topology, and data center application use cases.
  • Develop deep familiarity with existing cable specifications, design tradeoffs, and constraints across conductor types, connectors, busbars, and insulation systems.
  • Conduct voice-of-customer discovery with data center operators, electrical contractors, and internal applications and commercial teams to validate cable system requirements and pain points.
  • Perform competitive and ecosystem analysis of the data center power electronics landscape, including low-voltage distribution equipment suppliers and key industry players.
  • Create initial product strategy and business case documents covering target use cases, technical requirements, cost targets, pricing assumptions, and certification obligations.
  • Own and maintain product requirements and specifications for cable systems, defining fault current ratings, voltage drop budgets, ripple limits, connector interface requirements, and applicable compliance standards.
  • Lead NPI stage-gate execution for cable systems products, advancing designs from concept through prototype, validation, and commercial readiness while negotiating requirements and tradeoffs with engineering.
  • Partner with electrical, mechanical, systems, and manufacturing teams to optimize cable designs for performance, reliability, scalability, supply chain availability, and field installation.
  • Drive UL and relevant certification activities for cable systems products, working with engineering and third-party test labs to plan, execute, and document certification programs.
  • Serve as the technical product expert for commercial and applications teams, supporting customer conversations, technical evaluations, and early pilot deployments.
  • Define and execute the product roadmap for the cable systems portfolio, balancing near-term pilot delivery commitments with longer-term evolution toward medium-voltage capability.
  • Drive one or more cable systems products through launch or pilot deployment, meeting minimum viable product performance, cost, certification, and reliability targets.
  • Establish differentiated value propositions for VEIR's cable systems versus conventional alternatives in the data center power delivery market.
  • Develop and maintain technical product collateral, including specification sheets, installation guides, compliance documentation, and sales enablement materials.
  • Act as the cross-functional product leader, aligning engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, quality, and commercial teams around shared cable systems priorities and milestones.

Desired Qualifications

  • Medium-voltage experience is strongly desirable.
  • Data center industry experience is highly desirable.

About the Company

Veir

HTS-based superconducting transmission lines for grids

VEIR develops superconducting transmission lines that use high-temperature superconductors with an ambient-air cooling system to carry much more electricity in a smaller footprint. The cables rely on HTS to reduce resistance, and a streamlined air-cooling approach keeps the material in a superconducting state without bulky cryogenic equipment, enabling 5–10x higher power transmission in limited spaces. This approach targets urban and space-constrained environments, offering an alternative to traditional copper cables and other superconducting systems that require larger footprints or more complex cooling. VEIR aims to expand grid capacity to support dense urban loads, renewable energy integration, and regional upgrades, including power delivery for data centers and other energy-intensive sectors.
