A rocket company at the core, Relativity Space is on a mission to become the next great commercial launch company. Meeting the needs of a growing demand for space infrastructure, our rockets will revolutionize how we connect and communicate on Earth by getting satellites to space. We have developed a vertically integrated technology platform in which we leverage additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and autonomous robotics to 3D print rockets. Our unique approach enables rapid product iteration, allowing us to push the boundaries of what's possible today and unlock the full potential of 3D printing for tomorrow. Join us on this extraordinary journey, as we work together to transform our vision into reality.
Team:
Relativity is seeking a highly talented Launch Instrumentation Specialist to join a rapidly growing space startup. As a Data and Controls Systems Engineer, your responsibilities will include the design, installation, and operations of data and control systems for the Terran R Launch pad. This includes instrumentation, pad construction, system build-up, activation, and launch operations to support the Terran R and the launch program. You will work closely with the launch engineering team, supporting activities required to get the launch pad built, activated, and operated through launch.
What you’ll do:
At Relativity, we are redefining the way rockets are designed, built and flown. Starting with our proprietary and cutting-edge 3D printing technology, we aim to simplify and automate the manufacturing of rockets. This revolutionary approach enables us to make launch vehicles faster and more cost efficiently, allowing us to offer cost-efficient and short lead-time launch services to our customers. You will support the Design, installation, and operations of Data and Control System hardware and various instrumentation required to create an operational launch site. Once the launch site is functional, you will provide system level troubleshooting and procedural support while conducting launches of Terran R.
As a Data and Controls Systems Engineer, you will be at the forefront of creating a world class orbital launch site. In order to be successful in this role, you should be someone who is able to create, design, and lead projects to completion; ideally, you are someone who has come from a fast paced, aerospace environment, having completed difficult projects while collaborating effectively across various groups. The ability to perform work at the highest quality with minimal direction across all major technical disciplines is key. You should have extensive experience in designing, installing, verifying, and troubleshooting sensors that measure temperature, pressure, flow, displacement, and vibration. Oscilloscopes, signal generators, and multi-meters are just a few of the tools that you should already know how to operate. You will also be responsible for providing feedback and communication with the launch engineering team to prevent issues and help improve the launch pad build/activation process.
What you need to know:
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
- Hands on experience with Data Acquisition (DAQ) systems including sensors and actuators
- Understanding of proper signal shielding and grounding for low noise systems
- 2+ years of experience designing, building, and testing electrical and software systems
- Demonstrated experience with retrofit and clean sheet design of complex DAC systems
- Experience identifying and implementing new project opportunities based on long term company goals
- Track record of developing top engineering talent through mentorship and training
Nice to haves but not required:
- Design and operation of spacecraft and launch vehicle ground infrastructure
- Integration of communication interfaces such as Ethernet, RS422, RS232, RS485, Modbus, CANbus, etc
- Programming experience in C/C++, Python, Java or similar languages
- Experience in implementing industrial control systems derived from a P&IDs
- Experience with general facility maintenance
- Experience operating pressurized systems
- Design of lightning protection systems for large metallic structures and mounted systems
- Specification of sensing technologies for low and high data acquisition rates (100 Hz to 100 kHz and beyond) to measure values of interest directly and indirectly
- Architecture of highly distributed data and control systems
- Design of hardware and software systems that demand high-availability, high-reliability, and time-critical operation
Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous vacation policy, an annual L&D stipend and more!
