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 About the Team: The Structures team at Relativity is responsible for the design, analysis, testing, and manufacturing our launch vehicle integrated structures, as well as flight mechanisms. As a part of this team, you will be given hardware ownership for the full product lifecycle, and get the opportunity to conveniently validate your hardware through testing at our factory of the future, headquartered in Long Beach, CA. Unique to Relativity, you will get to work across many teams to develop world-class integrated launch vehicles. Overall, this team was critical to the launch success of Terran 1 and is now playing a key role in the development and execution of the Terran R program. About the Role: 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 the ability to communicate effectively with peers and leadership. You will support cross-functional trade & impact studies, assist in the coordination of changes, and facilitate the 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 of 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. Your responsibilities will include, but not be limited to the following: * Designing vehicle structures at various maturity phases: conceptual to critical design * Initial drawing creation and execute revisions due to engineering or manufacturing changes * Ownership of the vehicle BOM configurations, mass inputs, and part release schedule * Define and manage interfaces between vehicle subsystems using appropriate control documents & models * Develop design process improvements via simplification or automation About You: * Bachelor's degree in engineering or related technical discipline * 5+ years of related experience * Experience designing and managing large CAD assemblies and associated drawings * Fundamental knowledge of mechanical engineering design, analysis, manufacturing, and testing * Experience with ASME Y14.100, Y14.5, Y14.41 * Experience using NX and Teamcenter Nice to haves but not required: * Demonstrated development, packaging and configuration management experience on technically complex hardware products * Fundamental knowledge of mechanical engineering design, analysis, manufacturing and testing * Knowledge of aerospace vehicle fabrication and assembly techniques * Strong interpersonal, communication and project management skills We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.
