  • Creative. You find creative ways to solve problems in the absence of pre-existing data and tools.
You will:
  • Establish creative analytical approaches that enable VEIR to efficiently gather market data and convert it to market intelligence and identify the best locations to deploy VEIR transmission lines and the best VEIR transmission line solutions to address specific customer needs.
  • Understand the behavior of VEIR's advanced superconductor solution on electrical transmission systems.
