Company Overview
Amperesand is reinventing how the world powers its most critical systems.
We are facing a once-in-a-generation opportunity for infrastructure disruption. Electricity demand is skyrocketing, driven by AI factories, electric vehicles, and modern industrial growth. Energy supply is shifting to incorporate a more diverse mix of resources – including solar, gas, and batteries – at a massive scale.
And yet the power infrastructure behind our latest mega-projects hasn’t meaningfully changed in nearly 100 years. Supply chains for today’s infrastructure equipment can’t match the pace and sophistication of critical energy projects. Amperesand is building hardware and software that rewrites this broken power infrastructure playbook to support a new era of energy abundance.
We’ve built a new class of intelligent, software-defined power infrastructure products leveraging a decade of advanced medium voltage Solid State Transformer research that’s now ready for commercial deployment.
Our products and solutions go far beyond the capabilities of traditional electrical equipment. We make power systems that are faster to deploy, dramatically smaller and more efficient, and capable of supporting modern, dynamic energy needs for tomorrow’s most demanding energy consumers.
Scalable in-house advanced manufacturing capability is our foundation for meeting timeline and quality expectation to serve infrastructure customers around the world.
Amperesand is led by breakthrough energy hardware development veterans and funded by top tier investors who share our vision of building a category-defining energy technology company.
With hubs in San Francisco, Reno, and Singapore, our global team is laser focused on building foundational technology to solve the most pressing problems in power infrastructure at scale.
Join us in building the power foundation of the future!
Role Summary
This role is an opportunity to work with a high‑agency startup team operating in the hard‑tech sector. You will play a critical role in scaling a software engineering team to build in‑house supply chain and manufacturing software, leveraging AI‑enabled tools to accelerate development and operational efficiency.
This is a hybrid role. In the initial phase, you will be hands‑on—defining system architecture, building MVPs, and writing production code—while simultaneously building and growing a high‑performing team to deliver software for Amperesand’s organization.
Responsibilities:
- Own the architecture for supply chain, inventory management, and manufacturing systems tailored to Amperesand’s operational needs.
- Design, review, and evolve system architectures, ensuring scalability, reliability, and security.
- Develop a team scaling and hiring plan, and actively run hiring efforts in partnership with HR, Finance, and Recruiting.
- Build, mentor, and grow a high‑performing engineering team, providing technical direction, career guidance, and regular feedback.
- Stay current with AI technologies and thoughtfully integrate them into the development toolchain with appropriate security and compliance guardrails.
- Run day‑to‑day software operations, including sprint planning, stand‑ups, backlog management, and delivery tracking.
- Coordinate with global and cross‑functional teams (manufacturing, supply chain, firmware, data, and leadership) to align priorities and manage dependencies.
- Own delivery outcomes, including timelines, quality, and stakeholder communication.
- Establish and continuously improve engineering best practices around code quality, testing, CI/CD, observability, and on‑call readiness.
Qualifications:
- 3+ years of hands‑on software development experience in one of these systems - ERP, manufacturing software, supply chain systems, or IoT platforms.
- Experience working with modern infrastructure and tooling, including:
- Data streaming or event‑driven systems
- Dashboarding, analytics, or observability tools
- Experience managing and scaling engineering teams of 5+ people.
- Strong understanding of distributed systems and production software operations.
- Ability to operate effectively in fast‑paced, ambiguous startup environments.
Bonus Qualifications:
- Experience in the energy, industrial, or manufacturing domain.
- Prior experience building teams and system architectures from scratch.
- Exposure to or hands‑on experience with agentic systems or AI‑driven workflows.
- Experience working closely with hardware, firmware, or operations teams.
- Familiarity with supply chain concepts such as MRP, inventory planning, or shop‑floor systems.
Please note: This role requires working on-site 5 days a week. We do not offer hybrid or remote options.
