Company Overview:

Relativity is the first and only company to automate aerospace manufacturing by integrating intelligent robotics, software, and proprietary metal 3D printing technology. Disrupting 60 years of aerospace, Relativity offers a radically simplified supply chain, building a rocket with 100x fewer parts in less than 60 days. Our long-term goal is to upgrade humanity’s industrial base on Earth and on Mars.

What you’ll do:

  • Design and develop ground software used for Terran 1 vehicle testing, integration and launch.  This includes the full spectrum of software, from near-real time data acquisition and control software to user-facing GUI’s and tools.
  • Actively work with the operations team that uses your software daily to support integration, test, and launch operations. 
  • Take part in the complete software lifecycle including software integration and testing, deployment, debugging, and finding novel solutions to late-breaking changes or issues.
  • Work onsite in a fast-paced, challenging environment
  • This position will require occasional night shifts

What you need:

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in a related Engineering field (Electrical, Computer, Software, Aerospace) or Computer Science
  • Experience developing user-facing software applications and/or software related to networking, control and acquisition
  • Demonstratable knowledge of at least one programming language, preferably C++, Python, or Java
  • Basic experience developing software for systems that span multiple technologies/platforms
  • Experience using software version control tools (such as GIT)

Nice to haves but not required:

  • Embedded software and/or firmware development experience
  • Familiarity with different fieldbus protocols such as EtherCAT, CANopen, Ethernet, etc.
  • Experience working on distributed control and acquisition systems
  • Experience developing software for low-latency, reliable distributed networks with pub-sub type middleware such as DDS
  • Experience working with hardware, electronics, or lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multi-meters, etc.
  • Experience creating graphical user interfaces
  • Experience creating automation applications that supports operators in the loop
  • Experience supporting fast pace and rapidly changing operational environments
  •

Arwa Tizani
Technical Program Manager, Test & Launch
ASTRONOMICAL OPPORTUNITY
Building future-proof operations
Arwa Tizani never thought she’d find a role that would allow her to grow in both civil and mechanical engineering, but then she found Relativity Space. “Working at Relativity has allowed me to drastically widen my skill sets across both fields of engineering while having a significant impact on a high-tech industry,” she said. Whether Tizani is building product roadmaps or working with NASA officials, she is focused on one goal: “I am constantly solving the problem of how to design and build our test and launch sites for the future.”

I get to collaborate with incredible people every day to push the boundaries of what the rest of the world calls ‘rocket science.’
Fritz Gruber
Principal Additive Development Engineer
EVERYDAY EXPERIMENTATION
Reimagining possibilities in 3D printing
According to Fritz Gruber, Relativity Space employees need one thing: to approach their work with wonder and relentless passion. “My job is to experiment with new technology every day,” Gruber said. “The ‘unrealistic’ challenges push me to reimagine what I’m doing.” While Gruber explores new approaches to welding and 3D printing, he is laying the groundwork for future engineers as well. “This pushes me to think outside the box and allows me to unleash all my creativity,” he said. “It can be frustrating when I fail, but the reward of succeeding is incredible.”

Relativity is a great place for people to challenge traditions and themselves.
Abraham Awad
Director, Total Rewards
VALUE CENTERED
New horizons for every team
Experimentation isn’t limited to the tech at Relativity. While technologists are responsible for things outside of our world, Awad and the people team are looking for ways to make life at Relativity better — from a $10,000 family-building benefit to regular team off-sites. As the people team develops new programs, their work is rooted in the company values: audacity, relentlessness, wonder and humanity. “We live by and believe in these words,” Awad said. “We challenge convention, relentlessly seek meaningful results, approach problems in a new way and support the greater good of our team.”
