The EPROM programmer I use on the Amiga is an external one that plugs into
the serial port (and is controlled using a terminal emulator program).

Don't expect to find a plug-in card (as is common for PC machines) or
something that is like the Jason-Rannheim unit for the C64 (which I still
use, too; much more cost effective (getting a C64 and the Jason-Rannheim)
than buying, say, a "Data I-O" (tm) EPROM programmer.

FYI, the EPROM programmer I use on the Amiga is the EPROM-1 mfd by
International Microsytems Incorporated (in Sunnyvale, CA); this is one of
the finest units I've seen.  Plus, the fact it communicates over the serial
port means it can be used on any computer or even a "dumb" terminal.
