Long Beach, United States Relativity Full time

Company Overview:

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.

Team and Role Overview:

The Stage Engineering Team is responsible for the design, analysis and validation of our highly integrated and additive manufactured vehicles. As a vehicle design architect, you will be responsible for the overall CAD integration and packaging strategy of structural, mechanical, fluids and avionics subsystems for the Terran R vehicle, in addition to maintaining the design bill-of-material (BOM) and ensuring proper mass tracking.

In this role, you will work collaboratively with the stage design, additive, manufacturing, and process improvement teams to develop Relativity Space's configuration management processes as well as deliver on hardware design projects on time and budget. As such, you will be viewed as the subject matter expert on system level thinking, data auditing, and impact assessment of the complete engineering data lifecycle.

A high degree of autonomy, an ability to prioritize work in our fast-paced environment, and strong drive to achieve results are all key to be successful.

The Mission/Outcomes and Objectives:

Relativity's company mission is to upgrade humanity's industrial base on Earth and build one on Mars, starting with automating aerospace manufacturing by integrating robotics, software, and proprietary metal 3D printing technology to disrupt 60 years of aerospace manufacturing. In support of this mission, you will play a key role developing the Terran R vehicle architecture as the first additive manufactured reusable launch vehicle. Below are some specific examples of projects you will be working on:

Designing vehicle structures from conceptual phase through product release

Ownership of the vehicle BOM, mass tracking, and release schedule

Define and manage interfaces between vehicle subsystems using appropriate control documents & models

Develop design process improvement via simplification or automation

Provide technical assistance to integration and testing activities

Candidate Profile:

To be successful in this role, you should be self-motivated, adaptable, and able to complete projects in a fast-paced environment. You will need strong interpersonal skills and ability to communicate effectively with peers and leadership. You will support cross-functional trade & impact studies, assist in coordination of changes, and facilitate resolution of integration and development issues between engineering teams. Ideally, you have significant mechanical or integrated design experience as well as a proven track record organizing and completing collaborative projects effectively. Your advanced CAD skills enable you to own configuration management standards for our Terran R vehicle, as well as help you mentor other design engineers across the organization. Finally, you also have the ability to earn trust, maintain positive and professional relationships, and strengthen our culture of inclusion.

Minimum Required Skills and Competencies:

B.S. degree in engineering with 5+ years of relevant experience

Experience designing and managing large CAD assemblies and associated drawings

Demonstrated development, packaging, and configuration management experience on technically complex hardware products

Demonstrated knowledge of scheduling and planning principles and tools

Fundamental knowledge of mechanical engineering design, analysis, manufacturing, and testing

Experience with ASME Y14.100, Y14.5, Y14.41

Preferred Skills and Competencies:

Experience using NX and Teamcenter

Knowledge of aerospace vehicle fabrication and assembly techniques

Ability to interpret and apply high-level system requirements to practical design solutions

Strong interpersonal, communication and project management skills

Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous vacation policy,

an annual

L&D stipend and more
