Job Description

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.

Key Responsibilities

Solving one of the world's biggest energy challenges requires exceptional people working together at their best. We're looking for a People & Culture Manager who is passionate about creating the environment, systems, and experiences that help make that happen.
Reporting to the Chief People Officer, you'll partner across the full employee experience, from onboarding and manager coaching to employee relations, learning and development, culture, engagement, and internal communications. We're looking for someone who approaches the People function like a product builder; you listen carefully, identify opportunities, test ideas, measure outcomes, and continuously improve the employee experience as we grow. You'll help create experiences that keep people informed, connected, growing, and doing their best work.
This is a broad role with significant ownership, impact, and visibility. You'll move comfortably between coaching staff, facilitating workshops, improving programs, solving complex people challenges, and building new initiatives from the ground up. If you're energized by variety, ownership, and the opportunity to shape how a growing company develops its people, you'll thrive here.
As VEIR continues to scale, this role is designed to grow alongside the company, with opportunities to evolve into a Strategic People Partner or take ownership of a specialized function based on your strengths and interests.
This position will be based at VEIR’s headquarters in Woburn, MA.
Built trusted relationships across the company and become a valued advisor to leaders at every level.
Played a meaningful role in strengthening VEIR's culture while helping the organization successfully navigate growth.
Launched or significantly improved programs that have a measurable impact on employee experience, manager effectiveness, learning, and engagement.
Built scalable People programs, processes, and systems that support the company's next stage of growth without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
Introduced programs with measurable outcomes, using employee feedback, operational metrics, and business results to demonstrate their impact and inform future priorities.
Demonstrated the leadership, judgment, and influence to serve as a trusted extension of the Chief People Officer by anticipating organizational needs, independently leading high-impact initiatives, and helping build the people practices that enable VEIR to scale successfully.
You genuinely believe people do their best work when they feel trusted, challenged, supported, and connected, and you're passionate about creating that environment.
You quickly build trust and become the person people seek out for advice, coaching, and perspective.
You have exceptional judgment and can navigate sensitive situations with empathy, discretion, and confidence.
You notice patterns others miss. Whether it's team dynamics, manager effectiveness, or cultural friction, you're naturally curious and proactive about solving problems before they grow.
You love variety. You're just as energized facilitating a leadership workshop, coaching a manager, designing a new program, or rolling up your sleeves to execute.
You balance big-picture thinking with exceptional follow-through. You can envision a better way of doing things, and then make it happen.
You measure success by the impact you create, not by how many tasks you complete, and you know how to prioritize what matters most.
You use data, feedback, and sound judgment to make decisions and influence others.
You have a bias toward action. You're comfortable testing new ideas, learning quickly, and continuously improving.
You believe managers are the biggest multiplier of culture and performance, and you enjoy helping them become more effective leaders.
You're excited by the opportunity to build. Rather than maintaining existing programs, you enjoy creating, refining, and scaling them alongside a growing organization.

Requirements

5-8+ years of experience helping organizations, leaders, and teams perform at their best through People & Culture, Human Resources, Organizational Development, Learning & Development, Talent Management, management consulting, or a closely related discipline. A bachelor's degree is preferred; equivalent experience and demonstrated success are equally valued.
Demonstrated success designing and leading initiatives that improve how organizations develop, engage, or support their people. You know how to move from identifying a problem to designing a solution, measuring its impact, and continuously improving it over time.
Experience partnering with managers and senior leaders to navigate complex people and organizational challenges with sound judgment, strong communication , and a collaborative approach.
Experience in an early-stage, high-growth, or venture-backed company is a plus. You've helped build people programs, processes, or systems that scale with the business and know how to introduce the right amount of structure at the right time , without creating unnecessary complexity or bureaucracy.
