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!

Amperesand is looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager, Compliance, to own and drive all compliance program activities across our solid-state transformer (SST) product portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, regulatory requirements, quality, and operations serving as the central coordinator ensuring that our Solid-State Transformer meets all applicable safety, regulatory, and certification requirements on time and at scale. You will work across every stage of the product lifecycle, from early design through production release, to embed compliance into our development processes and protect Amperesand's path to market.

• Lead the compliance program end-to-end with planning, coordination, and support the team with certification and regulatory activities (e.g., UL, CE, FCC, IEC, NEC, IEEE, and grid interconnection standards) across all engineering disciplines, product development, manufacturing, supply chain, and quality
• Own and drive the compliance roadmap by defining milestone-driven compliance schedules aligned with product development timelines (EVT, DVT, PVT), ensuring that testing, certification submissions, and regulatory approvals are sequenced to avoid program delays
• Lead the relationships with external test labs, certification bodies, and regulatory agencies
• Drive sample submissions, track open findings, manage response timelines, and ensure audit-readiness at all stages of development
• Identify and mitigate compliance risks early and proactively surface design, material, or process gaps that could jeopardize certification outcomes. By doing this, partner with engineering and operations to drive timely resolution through structured trade-off analysis
• Own executive and cross functional compliance communications by providing clear status updates on certification progress, risks, and regulatory dependencies
• Drive integration of compliance requirements into product design. This includes collaboration with electrical and power electronics engineers to ensure that safety standards, EMC requirements, creepage/clearance rules, and component approval requirements are factored into design decisions from the start
• Partner with the supply chain and quality teams on component-level compliance; including RoHS/REACH/PFAS material compliance, approved vendor lists (AVLs), component derating requirements, and supplier qualification relative to certification obligations
• Support DFM and design review processes with a compliance lens to flag regulatory implications during design reviews and ensure that manufacturing processes and test fixtures align with certification requirements
• Develop and continuously improve compliance program management infrastructure by defining, driving, and supporting all activity trackers to hit our milestones
• Execute and maintain compliance documentation and traceability such as test report tools, technical construction files, and other regulatory artifacts required to meet our compliance goals and alignment with the team
• Own coordination of equipment, budget, test plans and resources align in a communicated cohesive plan to build out internal test lab capabilities

• Technical degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline; or equivalent hands-on industry experience with complex power electronics hardware and regulatory compliance
• 6+ years of experience in technical program management, compliance engineering, or regulatory affairs roles involving power electronics, electrical hardware, or energy systems in a production environment
• Demonstrated experience managing product certifications to relevant safety and EMC standards (e.g., UL 1741, IEC 62109, IEC 61000 series, FCC Part 15, CE/UKCA marking, grid interconnection requirements such as IEEE 1547 or UL 1741-SA)
• Familiarity with product development lifecycle stages (EVT, DVT, PVT) and how compliance activities integrate with each phase, including test planning, failure analysis, design iteration, and final certification submission
• Working knowledge of power electronics principles converters, inverters, motor drives, grid-tied systems sufficient to engage meaningfully with engineering teams on compliance implications of design decisions
• Strong cross-functional leadership skills with experience aligning engineering, quality, supply chain, and operations teams around shared compliance milestones and accountability
• Experience managing external relationships with accredited test labs (e.g., UL, TV, Intertek, MET Labs) and regulatory bodies, including coordinating test schedules, responding to non-conformances, and managing re-test cycles
• Excellent verbal, written, and visual communication skills with the ability to translate complex regulatory requirements into clear engineering actions and present compliance status to both technical and executive audiences
• Experience with material compliance programs (RoHS, REACH, conflict minerals) and component-level qualification processes tied to certification requirements
• Comfortable operating in fast-paced, high-ambiguity environments with evolving regulatory landscapes and competing program priorities
• Willingness and ability to travel up to 30%, including international locations, to support lab testing, regulatory audits, and global partner engagements
