Job Summary

At Relativity Space were building rockets to serve todays needs and tomorrows breakthroughs. OurTerran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit meeting the growing demand for launchcapacity. But thats just the start. Achieving commercial success with Terran R will unlock newopportunities to advance science exploration and innovation pioneering progress that reaches beyondthe known.

Joining Relativity means becoming part of something where autonomy ownership and impact exist at every level. Here youre not just executing tasks; youre solving problems that havent been solved before helping develop a rocket a factory and a business from the ground up. Whether youre in propulsion manufacturing software avionics or a corporate function youll 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 were writing together. Nowis a unique moment in time where its early enough to leave your mark on the product the process andthe culture but far enough along that Terran R is tangible and picking up momentum. The mostmeaningful work of your career is waiting. Join us.

About the Team:

The Propulsion team at Relativity is focused on developing and delivering highly performant and manufacturable engines for Terran R. Engineers are responsible for the entire lifecycle of their parts from initial design through production to qualification and flight. The team fosters a culture of bottoms-up decision-making free from technical gatekeeping where ownership and accountability are key at all levels. But designing engines with a quarter million pounds of thrust is just the beginning. As the flight configuration enters qualification the team is now exploring modifications for future engines including thrust upgrades new cycles and design for mass production.

About the Role:

You will lead a team that is responsible for the design and analysis of integration hardware as well as overall engine layout and packaging. This role will require managing a small team requiring strong mentorship project management establishing priorities communicating with leadership providing technical guidance and recruiting. Close collaboration with stakeholders within Propulsion Engineering (Combustion Devices Turbomachinery and Components) and external to Propulsion Engineering (Stage Test Stand and Integration) is essential. Designs and packaging trades will be informed by both fluid and structural analytical and computational models. You will strategically leverage 3D printing as well as traditional manufacturing methods to dramatically reduce the cost weight and part count of Aeon-R. To be successful in this role you should be someone who thrives in ambiguity and knows how to lead (and guide) projects to completion.

About You:

  • Bachelors degree in a science engineering technology or mathematics field
  • 5 years of experience with fluid systems design and/or structural design
  • Experience in mentoring and demonstrated leadership skills
  • Experience with computer aided design software
  • Experience with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and commercial tools such as Ansys Abaqus or Nastran
  • Experience applying fluid thermal structural and mechanical design fundamentals
Nice to haves but not required:
  • Experience in leading teams
  • Experience in the design of liquid propulsion components and systems
  • Experience with Siemens NX and Teamcenter specifically
  • Experience with large CAD model management change management and configuration management
  • Familiarity with aerospace standards (AS NAS SAE etc.)
