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 Avionics team is responsible for all aspects of the electrical design on the rocket, from electronics, interconnects, associated mechanical design, testing and initial production. This team's scope includes the flight computers, power systems, RF systems, PCB design, autonomous flight safety systems, and telemetry. This team works on complex electrical systems that require modularity and flexibility, and are critical to the successful launch of Terran R, and beyond!
About the Role:
We are seeking a skilled Avionics Electronics CAD librarian/designer to support the design and development of electronic components by managing and maintaining CAD libraries. The ideal candidate will have expertise in creating and managing library parts, including schematic symbols, PCB footprints, and 3D models. They will collaborate with engineering teams, ensure adherence to design standards, and contribute to efficient PCB development and release processes.
About You:
- Create and maintain PCB library components, including schematic symbols, footprints, and 3D models, using Altium
- Review and validate new library parts to ensure alignment with design and manufacturing standards
- Collaborate with hardware and PCB design engineers to identify and resolve library-related issues
- Ensure all library parts are compliant with company standards and industry best practices
- Manage and release PCB designs and library components in Teamcenter or similar product lifecycle management (PLM) systems
- Provide basic PCB design support as needed, including layout reviews and updates
- Proficiency in PCB design using Altium Designer
- Hands-on experience creating schematic symbols, PCB footprints, and 3D models
- Strong understanding of PCB design principles and manufacturing processes
- Familiarity with PLM systems like Teamcenter for part and design release
- Basic knowledge of PCB design and layout
Nice to haves but not required:
- Experience with PCB design standards such as IPC
- Knowledge of mechanical CAD tools for integrating 3D models (e.g., SolidWorks, Siemens NX)
- Familiarity with DFM (Design for Manufacturability) principles
- Background in electrical engineering or related field
