Software Intern, Factory & Ops

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!

Internship Session: Fall 2026

About The Role

Amperesand is disrupting industrial power with the first commercialized Solid State Transformer (SST) systems. SSTs are far more than transformer replacements — they unlock advanced capabilities for data centers, EV charging, renewables, microgrids, and industrial installations.

To support this mission, Amperesand is building a modern ERP and manufacturing operations software platform that gives our internal teams and external stakeholders real-time visibility, control, and intelligence across the business. We are looking for a motivated intern who wants to build production software across the full stack while learning from a high-agency startup engineering team.

This internship is an opportunity to work hands-on with a startup engineering team building the ERP and manufacturing platform that powers Amperesand's operations. You will contribute across both frontend and backend, helping ship new features, improve reliability, and bring AI-enabled capabilities into our internal tools.

You will work closely with engineers, product owners, and internal and external stakeholders who rely on our proprietary ERP and manufacturing ecosystem every day. This is a fast-paced, goal-oriented environment where you'll be expected to take ownership of real, production-facing work.

What You'll Do

• Build and support full stack features for our internal ERP and manufacturing operations platform, spanning Go backend services and TypeScript/React frontend applications.

• Help design and implement new AI-enabled features that improve how internal and external stakeholders interact with the platform.

• Support observability and metrics efforts, including instrumenting services, building dashboards, and improving system visibility.

• Improve CI/CD pipelines and automated testing to increase release speed and reliability.

• Collaborate with backend, frontend, and product teams to define APIs and data contracts.

• Assist in troubleshooting and resolving issues raised by internal and external users of the ERP and manufacturing ecosystem.

• Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code and participate in code review.

• Document features, architectural decisions, and processes for cross-functional stakeholders.

• Bring a customer-oriented, team-first mindset to a fast-paced startup environment.

What You'll Bring

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.

• Experience with Go for backend development (coursework, personal projects, or prior internship experience).

• Experience with TypeScript and React, including component-based development and state management.

• Exposure to AI/LLM concepts or hands-on experience with model training, fine-tuning, or applied AI tooling.

• Basic understanding of REST APIs and client-server architecture.

• Familiarity with Git and collaborative development workflows.

• Strong communication skills and comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Self-motivated, team-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, ambiguous startup environment.

• Available to work on-site.

Nice to Haves

• Experience with observability or metrics tooling (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).

• Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI).

• Exposure to ERP, MES, or other manufacturing/industrial software systems.

• Experience with automated testing frameworks (unit, integration, or end-to-end).

• Prior internship or project experience supporting customers or external stakeholders.

• Interest or coursework in energy systems, power electronics, or industrial automation.

• Open-source contributions or personal projects demonstrating full stack ability.

• Experience with AWS (e.g., EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, or similar cloud services).

Please note : This role requires working on-site 5 days a week. We do not offer hybrid or remote options.

While this role is listed for the location above, we may consider candidates in other locations on a case-by-case basis.

Onsite Collaboration Rationale:

Given the highly collaborative and cross-functional nature of hardware, embedded systems, and product development, in-person partnership across engineering and product teams is critical to enabling rapid execution, technical alignment, and successful development outcomes.

Why Join Amperesand

• Work on next-generation power infrastructure systems

• High ownership and visibility

• Cross-functional collaboration

• Opportunity to shape future products and infrastructure

• Fast-moving startup environment
