Propulsion Engineer I, Hardware Development

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 Role:

Propulsion Hardware Development Engineers are responsible for taking the Aeon-R engine from paper designs to highly reliable high-performance hardware. This role requires deep engagement with both the design and production teams to ensure our designs are readily manufacturable and our manufacturing processes are reliable and production-ready. You will also be responsible for developing new manufacturing processes to improve Aeon-R engines and the Terran-R vehicle. You should have strong engineering fundamentals as well as a knowledge of aerospace manufacturing techniques to be an effective Hardware Development Engineer. The role demands close interaction with propulsion hardware including defining build procedures and hands-on build and integration of hardware.

Responsibilities:

• Develop manufacturing processes new techniques and tools to enable high rate productions and increase engine performance
• Work hand-in-hand with the design and analysis teams to simplify our propulsion systems
• Participate in design reviews and lead design for manufacturing (DFM) initiatives
• Design test set-ups coordinate and execute development qualification and acceptance testing of systems and conduct data reviews
• Participate in test failure investigations and implement corrective actions
• Design analyze and procure tooling for piece part manufacturing and system testing
• Create and maintain development build and test schedules

About You:

• Bachelors degree in a science engineering technology or mathematics field
• Hands-on hardware experience with fluid and/or mechanical systems
• Demonstrated drive to deliver on ambitious schedules especially if unconventional & creative solutions are necessary to do so

Nice to haves but not required:

• 1 years of related experience
