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.
About the Team:
The Avionics team is responsible for all aspects of the electrical design on the rocket, from electronics, interconnects, associated mechanical design, testing and initial production. This team's scope includes the flight computers, power systems, RF systems, PCB design, autonomous flight safety systems, and telemetry. This team works on complex electrical systems that require modularity and flexibility, and are critical to the successful launch of Terran 1, Terran R, and beyond!
About the Role:
- Oversee build, integration, and checkouts of Avionics test infrastructure, including test racks; data acquisition hardware; loads cabinets; test interface boxes; harnesses; and computing hardware
- Support Avionics test technicians with setup, operations, and teardown of functional test racks used for component acceptance and qualification testing
- Create and execute process and procurement plans to streamline and scale build processes for test racks and test interface boxes
- Troubleshoot test systems and devices-under-test when issues arise during component acceptance testing
- Ensure all test equipment undergoes regular maintenance and calibration
- Provide feedback to test engineers to improve system designs for manufacturability, operability, maintenance, and safety
About You:
- 3+ years of experience with building and integrating electronic systems
- Demonstrated Experience performing rework and repairs on wire harnesses, including cutting; stripping; crimping; soldering; and connectorization
- Proficiency with work order management systems and other office tools
- Ability to collaborate and communicate effectively with internal and external teams
- Capacity to work overtime and weekends as-required
- Ability to lift 50lbs unassisted
Nice to haves but not required:
- Background in aviation, aerospace, automotive, or other large-scale industrial environments
- Experience operating and troubleshooting high-voltage DC electrical systems
- Comfortable with running software via command-line interfaces
- Experience with inventory management systems and project planning
- Demonstrated ability to perform PCBA solder rework and/or harness builds/rework (technical certifications preferred)

What the Team is Saying
What We Do
A rocket company at the core, Relativity Space is on a mission to become the next great commercial launch company. Terran R, our medium-to-heavy lift reusable launch vehicle, will reliably deliver payloads to orbit on-time and on-budget for customers – meeting the needs of growing demand for space infrastructure. Leveraging the benefits of additive manufacturing to design, test, and iterate at a pace unmatched in the industry, we are changing the way rockets are built and flown.
Our long-term goal is to create humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to fundamentally expand the possibilities of the human experience. The first step toward this vision starts here on Earth, by building the next great commercial launch company.
Why Work With Us
For 60 years, aerospace manufacturing has relied on fixed tooling and complex supply chains to slowly build rockets comprised of hundreds of thousands of parts. Leveraging advances in additive manufacturing, Relativity Space is strategically focused on reducing vehicle complexity, cost, and time to market.
