Wait, What Do You Do?

<div class="content-intro">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.</div><div>The Role</div> <div> VEIR is seeking a Principal Solutions Engineer - 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.
