We are building the future of aerospace.
The Role

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 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:

  • Lead the Avionics Integration Engineering team responsible for system-level electrical and harness design, system channel configuration management, and system-level integration and test activities
  • Collaborate with partners in electrical design, propulsion, fluids, etc. to define system-level electrical requirements and trade system architecture and design solutions
  • Design avionics harnessing and supporting secondary structure
  • Draft and execute system and vehicle level integration and test plans and procedures

About You:

  • Bachelors degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a related field
  • 5+ years of experience in an electromechancial design or integration engineering role
  • 1+ years of experience leading a team of engineers

Nice to haves, but not required:

  • Experience writing and executing system or vehicle level integration and test campaigns for complex systems such as cars, spacecraft, aircraft, or rockets
  • Basic programming skills for automation or data analysis
  • Experience with tools for electrical troubleshooting (power supplies, multimeters, oscilloscopes, time-domain reflectometry, or network analyzers)
  • Experience with a 3D computer aided design (CAD) software such as NX
  • Experience with wire harness design utilizing an electrical/harness design software such as Zuken E3
  • Demonstrated project ownership and accountability with complex, multi-disciplinary technical projects

At Relativity Space, we are committed to transparency and fairness in our compensation practices. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience, qualifications, and other job-related factors.
Compensation is only one part of our total rewards package. Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous PTO and sick leave policy, parental leave, an annual learning and development stipend, and more! To see some of the benefits & perks we offer, please visit here.

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 with Terran R

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.
