Lead, Manufacturing Engineering

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 Engine Manufacturing team is dedicated to delivering high-performance engines and advancing innovativemanufacturing systems that continuously improve cost quality and lead time. Youre not just executing ondesigns; you actively provide input that shapes new hardware iterations and regularly interface with engineers tomake critical decisions for the Aeon R program. Having successfully developed and refined processes for our initialdevelopment engines the team is now focused on producing flight engines at rate for Terran Rs aggressive launchmanifest.

About the Role:

• Lead a team that is responsible for the development and production of Combustion Device hardware for Aeon-R and RVac Engine programs
• Mentor project manage establish priorities communicate with leadership provide technical guidance and recruite/hire to build the team.
• Close collaboration with stakeholders within (machine shop additive etc.) and external to Manufacturing (Supply Chain Propulsion Design etc. ) to drive progress on production to meet program need
• Ensure delivery to engine to meet program targets as well as drive continuous improvement new product development and strategy for Combustion Device manufacturing at Relativity as a whole.
