Sr. Engineer - System Integration

The Role

VEIR is seeking a qualified Senior Engineer to join our System Integration & Heat Transfer team. This individual will play a critical role ensuring VEIR's superconducting cable is reliably installed in the full range of possible customer sites.

What You'll Do

• Serve as a subject matter expert in the equipment, means, methods and materials of installing our low-voltage and medium-voltage superconducting cable systems in all possible environments.
• Specify and design installation hardware and equipment, including custom equipment where necessary.
• Assist in the planning and execution of testing to ensure the cable mechanical design is consistent with required installation techniques and methods.
• Translate complex technical specifications into field installation manuals.
• Design training, and provide field support to help external partners install our system reliably.
• Ensure all installation methods comply with site safety standards and relevant
• codes / regulations.
• Interface and manage external contractors at both a high level planning stage and detailed execution stage.

Skills You Have

• 7+ years of experience in engineering, with a strong foundation in structural systems and/or large infrastructure, hardware selection and specification, field operations and support, and analytical methods for calculating forces, tolerances, and allowable loads.
• Experience in CAD and BIM.
• Skilled in MATLAB, Python, or similar languages is a plus.
• Expertise in technical writing and process documentation.
• A continuous improvement mindset to innovate and optimize system designs.
• Strong interpersonal skills for collaboration, vendor management, and team mentoring.
• Willingness to travel for short durations during product deployment phases.

To Be Successful in This Role, You'll Need

• You bring a solid background in engineering, with deep experience in mechanical process design and field operations, along with structural and/or mechanical engineering fundamentals.
• Known for your precision and your ability to ideate, iterate, and execute complex designs.
• You are an outstanding communicator (written and verbal) across all levels of the organization and can work effectively in a fast-paced collaborative environment.
• You excel at technical writing for non-expert audiences. You can dissect a complex process, describe it clearly and thoroughly, and anticipate the questions and challenges of a reader encountering the work for the first time - preempting them in the documentation.
• You are able to lead engineering trade studies that cross system boundaries, drawing on rigorous analytical and engineering judgment and the ability to communicate and collaborate effectively across team boundaries.
• You are a highly motivated, self-starter with a positive approach to problem solving
• 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
• You thrive on effectively managing multiple projects with competing priorities that require making decisions under pressure and working under tight deadlines
• You are highly curious and solutions-oriented, and excel at deconstructing complex problems into manageable components to develop effective solutions
• You are committed to buying into VEIR's mission and goals, and adopting our core values
