Amperesand - Senior Manager-System Electronics
Requirements
• BS, MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field. • 10+ years of engineering experience in electronics or power electronics hardware development, with at least 4 years in a people-leadership role managing technical teams. • Strong background in system-level electronics architecture for high-voltage, high-power conversion products, with the breadth to lead across both low-voltage/mixed-signal design and power conversion. • Solid understanding of AC-DC and DC-DC converter topologies and auxiliary supplies, and how power stages integrate with control, sensing, and protection electronics. • Working knowledge of isolation and interface design across voltage domains, high-voltage design practices, protection and fault-tolerance strategies, and functional safety concepts. • Proven track record architecting and delivering electronics products from prototype through volume production. • Working Model • Employment Type:• Full-time Location:Reno Work Model:• OnsiteOnsite 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. • Location: • Work Model: • Onsite Collaboration Rationale:
Responsibilities
• Own the end-to-end system-level electronics architecture for SST products. • Define the low-voltage and mixed-signal architecture for control, sensing, and protection, ensuring measurement chains, fault detection, and communication interfaces meet performance and safety targets. • Set architectural direction across the system: functional partitioning, interface definition, voltage-domain isolation, grounding, protection, redundancy, and fault tolerance to meet single-fault-tolerant and product-lifetime requirements. • Define the 800V power architecture and set direction on auxiliary power converter architecture: topology strategy, power budgeting, isolation, and integration with the SST power stage. • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of design engineers. Provide technical guidance while empowering engineers to own their domains. • Drive requirements decomposition, interface control, and architecture reviews (including DFMEA, derating, and trade studies) that balance performance, reliability, safety, cost, and manufacturability. • Own the electronics roadmap across multiple product generations. • Collaborate closely with firmware, controls, mechanical and test engineering teams. Drive product improvements from first principles. • Support EMC compliance, functional safety, and safety certification at the system level, and champion documentation, traceability, and standards that scale with the company. • Establish frameworks for architecture definition, requirements decomposition, and design review that bring consistency and speed to the electronics organization.
