Principal Electrical & Compliance Engineer

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 Principal Electrical Engineer to serve as the technical authority on all aspects of electrical systems integration and compliance. Reporting to the Sr. Manager – Superconducting Systems, this individual will own the interface between VEIR's superconducting power delivery equipment and datacenter distribution infrastructure — translating customer facility requirements into rigorous integration specifications, driving connector and component design for seamless infrastructure interoperability, and establishing the compliance and standards framework that governs how VEIR designs, tests, and deploys its systems. 

This is a high-ownership individual contributor role at the intersection of hardware, systems architecture, and regulatory compliance. The right candidate brings deep datacenter power distribution experience, a command of applicable electrical standards (NEC, IEC, UL), and the engineering judgment to operate effectively in a fast-paced, commercial/scale-up environment where the technical decisions made today will shape VEIR's product roadmap for years to come. 

What You’ll Do 

Electrical Systems Integration 

• Own the electrical integration interface designs between VEIR system and datacenter distribution systems, from medium-voltage (MV) switchgear and transformers through low-voltage (LV) switchgear, busway, PDUs, power sidecars, and rack busbars. 
• Drive VEIR system / sub-system / component product development with deep knowledge of: 
  • datacenter electrical system-level integration specifications, single-line diagrams, protection architectures 
  • datacenter applicable standards and certification requirements 
  • datacenter installation, commissioning and operations requirements 

Connector & Component Design 

• Lead the technical definition and qualification of electrical connectors, terminations, and interface components that integrate VEIR’s cryogenic systems with conventional power infrastructure. 
• Drive/support component-level design reviews, failure mode analysis (FMEA), and qualification test planning for all electrical interface hardware. 
• Work with procurement and supply chain to identify and qualify connector and component suppliers that meet VEIR’s performance and reliability standards.  

Standards, Compliance & Test 

• Establish and maintain VEIR’s electrical compliance framework, identifying applicable standards (NEC, NFPA 70E, IEC 61439, IEC 62271, UL 508A, and relevant datacenter standards including TIA-942 and Uptime Tier requirements) across the design, test, and deployment lifecycle. 
• Translate regulatory and customer-specific requirements into testable design constraints and acceptance criteria for VEIR subsystems and integrated products. 
• Lead or support AHJ interactions, third-party inspections, and listing/approval processes for VEIR electrical systems. 
• Define and maintain system-level electrical test plans and acceptance test procedures (ATPs) for factory and field use. 

Cross-Functional Technical Leadership 

• Act as the int
