Company Overview: Amperesand is disrupting industrial power with the first commercialized Solid State Transformer systems. Solid State Transformer systems are much more than a transformer replacement, enabling numerous advanced features to unlock solutions for data centers, EV charging, renewables, microgrids, and industrial installations. We are seeking mission-driven team members who are passionate about making amazing products for worldwide electrification at maximum acceleration. Amperesand is building a global company and looking for talent across our geographies. Role: At Amperesand, you will lead the reliability lifecycle from concept through design, testing, manufacturing, and field deployments, while ensuring the product meets stringent reliability requirements to support the world's critical infrastructure. Responsibilities: Lead reliability efforts across the product lifecycle-from concept to field deployment for SSTs. Develop robust reliability design guidelines and research failure mechanisms to ensure durability and accelerate time to market. Apply reliability models (e.g., Fault Trees, block diagrams) and lead Design FMEAs to identify risks early, influence engineering decisions, and shape test coverage. Champion reliability in design reviews by clearly communicating risks to all stakeholders and mitigation plans at each phase of development. Specify and execute reliability test plans using physics-of-failure principles, defining system vs component-level testing with defined sampling and durations. Analyze accelerated life tests and field performance to refine reliability models, predict product longevity, and implement corrective actions. Resolve failures through root cause analysis using advanced diagnostic techniques. Grow and mentor a reliability engineering team to support development and continuous improvement. Collaborate with design, manufacturing, and quality teams to define reliability targets, assess program risks, and embed feedback into future iterations. Influence supplier selection by setting clear reliability validation standards. Monitor fleet usage and operating conditions to enable predictive health insights, reduce field failures, and refine long-term reliability strategies. Travel to different facilities worldwide, collaborating with teams and deploying our solutions. Qualifications : Advanced degree (Master's or PhD) in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering. Deep expertise in power electronics fundamentals, focusing on high voltage and high power systems. Proficiency in accelerated testing methods, including governing equations and physics of failure for electrical and mechanical failure mechanisms.
