Jobs at Relativity Space

Design and develop primary and secondary flight structures and mechanisms for the Terran R rocket from concept through release. Create CAD models and drawings, perform packaging and tolerance analyses, integrate DFM choices with manufacturing, manage BOMs and configuration in PLM, and support fabrication and release activities using NX/Teamcenter.

Manufacture Thermal Protection System components and subassemblies for the Terran R vehicle. Perform adhesive bonding (surface prep, adhesive mixing, application, vacuum bagging), follow engineering drawings and procedures, operate hand and pneumatic tools and MES to document production, troubleshoot routine production issues with engineers and quality, and support downstream operations while maintaining safety and quality standards.

Own and execute manufacture, test, and delivery of high-volume vehicle subassemblies. Develop and release build flows, work instructions, and test procedures. Support first-article builds and provide hands-on floor support to resolve issues, drive root-cause corrective actions, and coordinate across design, supply chain, production, and test to enable scalable production.

Lead installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of complex electrical systems for launch infrastructure. Direct technicians, estimate materials, verify repairs to code, mentor junior staff, and enforce safety practices. Support construction projects, facility upgrades, and operations in changing conditions including outdoor and non-standard shifts.

Perform CFD analyses for combustion device hardware (injectors, thrust chambers, heat exchangers, igniters); review test and flight data to validate models; collaborate with hardware designers using thermofluid expertise; develop analysis approaches to reduce design iterations; apply scripting for engineering workflows.

Install, maintain, and troubleshoot AC/DC electrical distribution and equipment supporting launch infrastructure and facilities. Perform construction and upgrade electrical work, diagnose issues, complete repairs per codes, implement safety measures, estimate materials/labor, and support operations including outdoor and non-standard shift work.

Set up and operate CNC machinery, monitor production schedules, and ensure compliance with engineering specifications while continuously learning and adapting to new technologies.

Design, analyze, size, and test primary and secondary flight structures (thrust structure, tanks, interstage, fairing). Use CAD (NX/Creo/SolidWorks), perform FEA (Nastran/ANSYS) and hand calculations, release drawings, support manufacturing process development and hardware test campaigns, and own designs from requirements through production.

Own hardware for vehicle sub-systems from release through build, test, and delivery for high-volume subassemblies. Develop and release build flows, work instructions, and test procedures. Support first article builds, provide hands-on floor support, resolve issues, drive root cause analysis, and coordinate across design, supply chain, production, and test to enable scalable, repeatable manufacturing.

Lead and grow the Stage Materials & Processes Engineering team to develop, qualify, and support materials and processes for Terran R stage systems. Collaborate across vehicle, manufacturing, NDE, quality, and supply chain teams; drive dispositions, risk mitigation, root-cause analysis, and corrective actions; manage budgeting and staffing; set technical and leadership standards.

Support corporate legal operations: maintain entity records and filings, manage board/stockholder documentation, assist financings and due diligence, administer equity plans, negotiate NDAs, support investor relations, and provide litigation administrative support.

The CNC Programmer develops programs and G-code for multi-axis machines, optimizes production processes, and collaborates on tooling and manufacturing plans.

Lead the design, development, and integration of a wideband UHF shallow radar sounder for a Mars orbiter. Own system design, waveform trade studies, hardware prototyping, calibration, testing, spacecraft integration, spectrum licensing, and on-orbit commissioning while collaborating with science partners and cross-disciplinary teams.

Lead Linux systems administration for on-prem and cloud production environments supporting manufacturing and engineering. Deploy, configure, automate, patch, and tune systems; support Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, and enterprise backups; troubleshoot network/system boundaries; mentor junior admins and standardize operational processes.

Own hardware from design release through build, test, and delivery for engine or vehicle systems. Develop build flows, work instructions, and test procedures. Support first article builds, provide hands-on floor support, resolve issues, and coordinate across design, supply chain, production, and test teams to enable scalable, repeatable manufacturing.

Lead sourcing and supplier management for complex machined aerospace components, develop and execute supply chain strategies, negotiate contracts, manage supplier performance and risk, support NPI efforts, and mentor team members to ensure cost, quality, and delivery targets for Terran R production.

Lead global sourcing and supplier management for complex machined aerospace components. Develop supply strategies, negotiate contracts, manage supplier performance and risk, partner with engineering/quality for manufacturability, mentor team members, and support NPI readiness to meet Terran R build schedules.

Develop and deploy machine learning systems for Mars missions, enhance atmospheric modeling, and integrate multi-modal data for autonomous science.

The GNC Simulation Engineer II will develop and integrate flight algorithms, run simulations, and enhance dynamics models for aerospace vehicles, focusing on GNC and performance optimization throughout the mission.

Lead maturation and refinement of QMS processes and perform program quality engineering across development-to-production transitions. Support inspections, audits, and hands-on quality activities for additive manufacturing programs, collaborating with cross-functional teams to industrialize manufacturing capabilities and ensure product and process compliance to aerospace standards.
