Job Description

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. Our groundbreaking research 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 handles all aspects of electrical design for the rocket, including electronics, interconnects, mechanical design, testing, and initial production. This scope covers flight computers, power systems, RF systems, PCB design, autonomous flight safety systems, and telemetry. The team works on complex, modular, and flexible electrical systems critical to the successful launch of Terran R and beyond.

About the Role:

  • Develop detailed process plans, work instructions, and work orders for manufacturing avionics hardware and wire harnesses.
  • Conduct Manufacturing Readiness Reviews (MRRs) to ensure production readiness and risk mitigation before major builds.
  • Collaborate with design engineers to provide Design for Manufacturability (DFM) feedback and improve product designs for ease of fabrication and assembly.
  • Support build technicians during manufacturing by troubleshooting issues, resolving non-conformances, and implementing corrective actions.
  • Coordinate with supply chain and quality teams to ensure procurement and inspection of high-quality avionics components.
  • Analyze process performance and yield data to drive continuous improvement initiatives and develop capacity and demand plan models.

About You:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Aerospace Engineering, or related field.
  • At least 2 years of experience in manufacturing, process development, or production support for avionics hardware.
  • Hands-on experience with PCBAs, avionics boxes, or wire harness fabrication and assembly.
  • Knowledge of IPC standards for PCB and cable assembly.
  • Experience with process documentation, including work instructions, process control plans, and test procedures.

Nice to Haves:

  • Experience ramping from R&D or pilot manufacturing to full production.
  • Familiarity with high-reliability electronics manufacturing and environmental testing.
  • Experience with CAD tools (e.g., NX, Zuken, CATIA) for mechanical design and harness routing.
  • Familiarity with PLM and ERP systems for managing work orders and production tracking.
  • Understanding of AS9100 or ISO9001 quality management systems.
  • Experience with data analysis and visualization tools to identify, track, and optimize manufacturing KPIs.

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. We offer competitive salary and equity, generous PTO and sick leave, parental leave, an annual learning stipend, and more! For details on benefits and perks, please visit our website.
