About the role

  • Demonstrate ingenuity and autonomy by introducing novel ideas and implementing them with utmost attention to safety, quality, and reliability, ensuring timely completion of projects.
  • Extensive experience managing large scope of ownership.
  • Extensive experience authoring work instructions and/or test procedures for mechanical and/or fluid assemblies.

Responsibilities

  • Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity.
  • 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.
  • Conceptualize, develop, and stand up a cutting-edge bending and welding work cell capable of meeting the demanding requirements of the AeonR and TerranR programs.
  • Drive assembly first build and test efforts through design for manufacturability guidance, assembly sequencing, mBOM development, build and test work order creation, and specification authoring.
  • Implement innovative tooling solutions for both new and existing products, streamlining production to support increased output while reducing operational complexity.
  • Experience interfacing with design engineering, manufacturing, and production personnel.
  • Understanding of orbital tube welding (OTW), tube bending, TIG welding, metallic fabrication, assembly procedures, and tooling design.

Requirements

  • Bachelor of Science degree in aerospace, mechanical, or manufacturing engineering.
  • Minimum of 2+ years of experience building and testing hardware in a manufacturing environment (may include internship experience)
  • Nice to haves but not required:
  • Working knowledge of typical manufacturing execution systems and quality management systems.
  • Working knowledge of rocket subsystems including structures, mechanisms, high pressure gas systems, and/or avionics.
  • Strong understanding GD&T and drafting principles.

Compensation

  • Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous PTO and sick leave policy, parental leave, an annual learning and development stipend, and more!
  • $102,000 - $156,000 USD

Benefits

  • Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous PTO and sick leave policy, parental leave, an annual learning and development stipend, and more!
  • 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.

Company info

  • The Stage Manufacturing team turns design into reality, owning the build of Terran R's primary structures.
  • This isn't about turning the same bolt every day; it's about building the systems to build the rocket.
  • Engineers and technicians work side by side, with deep collaboration and real-time feedback, to shape how we build better and faster.
  • With a manifest and a launch date, it's up to the team to deliver on Terran R: solving challenges in real time, optimizing for scale, and constantly improving processes.
  • As the vehicle evolves, so will the factory, with opportunities to apply automation, machine learning, and advanced technologies.
  • What we build here sets the blueprint for the future of scaled launch.
  • solving challenges in real time, optimizing for scale, and constantly improving processes.
  • Establish and enforce standard practices, troubleshooting guides, and standardized repair procedures, with a key responsibility of reviewing and approving planning documents.
  • Streamline and optimize existing production systems, proactively identifying areas for cost reduction while enhancing overall quality and efficiency.
  • At Relativity Space, we are committed to transparency and fairness in our compensation practices.
