At Relativity Space, we’re building rockets to serve today’s needs and tomorrow’s breakthroughs. Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity. But that’s just the start. Achieving commercial success with Terran R will unlock new opportunities to advance science, exploration, and innovation, pioneering progress that reaches beyond the known.
Joining Relativity means becoming part of something where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level. Here, you're not just executing tasks; you're solving problems that haven’t been solved before, helping develop a rocket, a factory, and a business from the ground up. Whether you’re in propulsion, manufacturing, software, avionics, or a corporate function, you’ll collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time. Relativity is a place where creativity and technical rigor go hand in hand, and your voice will help define the stories we’re writing together. Now is a unique moment in time where it’s early enough to leave your mark on the product, the process, and the culture, but far enough along that Terran R is tangible and picking up momentum. The most meaningful work of your career is waiting. Join us.
About the Team:
The Supply Chain team turns design intent into executable reality, balancing lead time, cost, complexity, and manufacturability to ensure we can build and scale Terran R. On this team, you're not just placing orders; you're actively shaping the solution. With full ownership across raw materials, capital equipment, and services, the role requires both strategic thinking and day-to-day execution. As the company scales, supply chain becomes increasingly central, working closely with engineering, quality, manufacturing, and more to make decisions that work for today but also for tomorrow. This is a team for those who want to operate at the intersection of technical ambition and business execution, driving tangible progress to keep the Terran R program on track.
About the Role:
We’re looking for a Cost Analyst to join our Supply Chain team, responsible for sourcing Relativity’s next generation launch vehicle, Terran-R. This position will be involved with many aspects of accounting and finance and will be a key contributor in reporting strong unit-cost analysis for our manufactured products, producing timely financial reporting, and ensuring our financial accounting is accurate.
- Create and implement flexible and actionable product-costing models across a variety of Relativity manufactured products for Terran R (e.g. Aeon Engines, First Stage, Second Stage, Thrust Structure) and subassembly systems
- Partner with supply chain, production, and engineering leaders to set cost reduction targets and regularly prepare and analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) to track execution against those productivity goals
- Review and update standard costs and bill of materials with labor, burden and outside service costs
- Analyze and record R&D inventory expenses to the correct projects and departments
- Develop and enhance tools that will drive unit-cost reductions across key products
- Maintain relevant cost dashboard and reporting. Present monthly product cost metrics to production and finance leadership
- Partner with finance and production teams to manage inventory valuation for multiple production locations, maintain inventory reconciliations, and set up capabilities for new sites/programs
- Parts with finance to perform FP&A analysis for production and supply chain department spend and identify opportunities to drive efficiencies
About You:
- Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, economics, business, mathematics, engineering or other technical discipline
- 3+ years of experience in general accounting, cost accounting, financial operations, or financial analysis of manufacturing activities
- Experience with SQL
- Advanced Excel modeling and reporting skills
Nice to haves but not required:
- Experience with cost accounting (preferably high-volume manufacturing)
- Strong knowledge of generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP) for manufacturing businesses with CPA designation preferred
- Experience with Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) compliance
- Experience developing Power BI dashboards
