Senior Staff Product Manager

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: As a Senior Staff Product Manager, you will play a pivotal role in translating Amperesand’s platform vision into tangible product features that enable next-generation grid-interactive power systems. You’ll be responsible for defining and managing the delivery of differentiated inverter platform capabilities that support next generation high density DC power architectures for data centers. This role blends market insight, technical acumen, and customer empathy to prioritize features that offer meaningful impact and revenue potential. You will work closely with engineering, firmware, and commercial teams to define product strategy, drive technical execution, and enable successful go-to-market outcomes. If you're passionate about building impactful, value-centric products and excited about building transformational products at the intersection of electrification, grid modernization, and digital control—this is your opportunity to lead and we want to hear from you! Responsibilities: Own the product roadmap for medium-voltage inverter and SST platforms enabling medium voltage and ±800 V DC distribution inside data-center campuses. Quantify ROI for customers through PUE/WUE improvements, power-density gains, and CapEx vs OpEx trade-offs. Establish technology partnerships to maximize SST impact on customer value and to shorten deployment time and enhance reliability. Engage directly with hyperscalers, colocation providers, and data-center design-build firms to define performance metrics for uptime, energy density, and fault containment. Translate customer site designs into scalable product configurations that integrate grid, genset, and storage assets. Monitor global data-center power trends (AI rack loads, liquid cooling, regional grid codes, carbon-free procurement) and feed insights into roadmap decisions. Ensure electrical, thermal, and firmware designs meet Tier III/IV reliability targets and IEC/IEEE compliance (IEC 61850, 62477, 60364-7-716, IEEE 1547, UL 1741-SB). Align power-electronics, embedded-firmware, EMS, and mechanical teams around unified release plans. Co
