Job Description

At Relativity Space, we're building rockets to serve today's needs and tomorrow's breakthroughs. Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity. But that's just the start. Achieving commercial success with Terran R will unlock new opportunities to advance science, exploration, and innovation, pioneering progress that reaches beyond the known.

Joining Relativity means becoming part of something where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level. Here, you're not just executing tasks; you're solving problems that haven't been solved before, helping develop a rocket, a factory, and a business from the ground up. Whether you're in propulsion, manufacturing, software, avionics, or a corporate function, you'll collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time. Relativity is a place where creativity and technical rigor go hand in hand, and your voice will help define the stories we're writing together. Now is a unique moment in time where it's early enough to leave your mark on the product, the process, and the culture, but far enough along that Terran R is tangible and picking up momentum. The most meaningful work of your career is waiting. Join us.

About the Team :

The Engine Manufacturing team is dedicated to delivering high-performance engines and advancing innovative manufacturing systems that continuously improve cost, quality, and lead time.

Having successfully developed and refined processes for our initial development engines, the team is now focused on producing flight engines at rate for Terran R's aggressive launch manifest.

About the Role :

• Lead a team that is responsible for the development and production of engine integration hardware such as ducts, manifolds, and structural brackets.
• Requires mentorship, project management, establishing priorities, communicating with leadership, providing technical guidance, and recruiting / hiring to build the team.
• Close collaboration with stakeholders within Manufacturing (Components manufacturing, Integration, PBF, Machine Shop, Planning) and external to Manufacturing (Supply Chain, Quality, and Design Engineering) to drive progress and adjust to ever changing requirements.
• Ensure hardware delivery to engine to meet program targets, as well as drive continuous improvement, new product development, and future strategy for valves manufacturing at Relativity as a whole.
