Software Engineer Intern

## Company Overview 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. ## Role Summary 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. ## Responsibilities - 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. ## Qualifications - 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. ## Bonus Qualifications - 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).
