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:

The avionics team is responsible for the full lifecycle of all electronics and supporting hardware central to operating Relativity's rockets. The team designs, builds, tests, integrates, and operates the hardware which controls the rocket in flight, downlinks critical telemetry, keeps the public safe, and deploys our customers' payloads to orbit! Our hardware enables Relativity to reliably control our rockets while maintaining the flexibility to rapidly iterate our designs. As a member of this team, you will design innovative hardware solutions capable of surviving harsh launch and space environments. Your designs will support multiple vehicle systems such as sensors, propulsion, computing, actuation, energy management, and communications.

What you’ll do:

• Own the Design, Routing, and Integration of Electrical wire Harnessing within the Terran R avionics system from conception to qualification and production, including connectors, cable, and supports.
• Collaborate across various disciplines including stage engineering, electrical hardware, propulsion and software to design Robust harnessing through architecture trades and requirements definition
• Utilize 3D Modeling, 2D Drafting and electrical Design Packages to deliver detailed designs with considerations for production and test.
• Validate Designs for flight through rapid prototyping and test campaigns.

What you need to know:

• Minimum 2 years of experience in a full cycle design engineering role
• Bachelors Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace Engineering or Related Field
• Electrical Harness Design and Mechanical Routing Experience with 3D CAD Software
• Demonstrated project ownership and accountability with integration and test of complex, multi-disciplinary electrical systems

Nice to haves but not required:

• Proficient with Teamcenter & NX CAD Package
• Experience with Zuken E3 Electrical Design Software
• Knowledge of scripting and software development to support bring up (E.G. Python, Labview, C/C++).
• Experience Developing Electrical and Mechanical Test Fixtures, Tools, and Production Harnessing
• Experience working with a Hardware-In-The-Loop System
• Previous work on a launch vehicle spacecraft

Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous vacation policy, an annual L&D stipend and more!
