Company Overview:  

At Relativity Space, we have two audacious goals: to build the next great commercial launch company with Terran R and to become America's leading force in additive manufacturing innovation. Both contribute to our long-term vision of creating humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to expand the possibilities of the human experience. This journey begins right here on Earth – where we design, build, and fly rockets to deliver customer payloads to orbit. Terran R, our medium-to-heavy lift reusable rocket, fulfills the growing demand for launch capacity, thanks to our iterative approach that accelerates design, testing, and development while minimizing costs. While our groundbreaking research and development in 3D printing pushes the boundaries of large-scale additive manufacturing.

Your journey with us is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to shape the future of aerospace technology, additive manufacturing, and the human experience alongside a community of passionate, creative individuals. Join us on this extraordinary journey, as we work together to transform our vision into reality.

About the Team:  

The Additive Development team at Relativity Space will develop, create, and operate the most advanced additive manufacturing technologies in the world. This best-in-class team makes sure that the infrastructure, materials, tools, and equipment are in place for us to rapidly iterate and print. The powder-based manufacturing team was crucial to manufacturing Aeon-1 for first launch and now are developing and demonstrating groundbreaking technologies, design, and approaches for Aeon-R.

About the Role: 

  • Second shift runs from 2pm - 10:30pm
  • Setup, operate, and monitor PBF printers, de-powdering machinery, and supporting equipment
  • Perform routine maintenance, calibration, and troubleshooting of PBF equipment
  • Inspect parts for dimensional accuracy, defects, surface quality, and perform necessary rework
  • Maintain accurate and detailed documentation of work performed
  • Collaborate with engineering and team to develop and implement new printing processes
  • Adhere to all safety protocols and guidelines ensuring a safe work environment

About You:  

  • 2+ Years Experience in PBF printer operation or other additive manufacturing technologies
  • Experience operating PBF printers and support equipment such as EOS, AMCM, Velo3D, Solukons and a solid understanding in various PBF printing processes 
  • Experience inspecting PBF parts for defections and dimensional accuracy
  • Experience interpreting technical documents and maintain accurate records
  • Experience troubleshooting issues related to the PBF printing process

Nice to haves but not required:  

  • 3+ years working as a Powder Bed Fusion Technician
  • Certification in PBF operation/maintenance applications or Associates degree in Advanced Manufacturing Technology
  • Experience in CAD software or programming PBF printers
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to consistently produce high-quality parts

What We Do

A rocket company at the core, Relativity Space is on a mission to become the next great commercial launch company. Terran R, our medium-to-heavy lift reusable launch vehicle, will reliably deliver payloads to orbit on-time and on-budget for customers – meeting the needs of growing demand for space infrastructure. Leveraging the benefits of additive manufacturing to design, test, and iterate at a pace unmatched in the industry, we are changing the way rockets are built and flown.

Our long-term goal is to create humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to fundamentally expand the possibilities of the human experience. The first step toward this vision starts here on Earth, by building the next great commercial launch company.

Why Work With Us

For 60 years, aerospace manufacturing has relied on fixed tooling and complex supply chains to slowly build rockets comprised of hundreds of thousands of parts. Leveraging advances in additive manufacturing, Relativity Space is strategically focused on reducing vehicle complexity, cost, and time to market.
