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 Tooling and Factory Automation team sits at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and automation, making everything from large-scale structural fixtures to small tools that directly enable Terran R’s production. As a design group embedded within the manufacturing organization, we dig deep into the needs of our internal partners to understand root problems, propose solutions, and deliver hardware to help build faster, scale smarter, and work better. The team is also at the forefront of Relativity’s growing factory automation efforts, an increasingly critical part of scaling production of Terran R at existing and future facilities. You’ll have the autonomy to make decisions, field solutions, and see them in action on the factory floor. Ultimately, you’re not just delivering tools or automated processes; you’re defining how rockets and factories get built.

About the Role:

  • Collaborate with leadership to forge a strategic growth roadmap for the Tooling and Factory Automation org that propels company-wide objectives and partnerships
  • Create and facilitate team infrastructure in the form of frameworks, digital productivity tools, and physical resources
  • Coordinate people, scope, timelines, interactions and communications to achieve the highest standards of team effectiveness and service to customers
  • Contribute to innovation through direct engagement in design activities and definition of strategic technological initiatives
  • Establish and track metrics that define the team’s impact

About You:

  • Degree in engineering, science, mathematics, or related fields; mechanical, aerospace or electrical engineering degree preferred
  • 5+ years in program or project management role(s)
  • Experience managing multiple customers across matrix organizations and building sustainable processes
  • Experience in the manufacturing of complex parts and assemblies
  • Proven ability to solve challenging technical problems and develop robust, scalable solutions

Nice to haves but not required:  

  • •Experience in the development and integration of tooling and automated manufacturing equipment
  • High volume manufacturing experience

Compensation is only one part of our total rewards package. Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous PTO and sick leave policy, parental leave, an annual learning and development stipend, and more! To see some of the benefits & perks we offer, please visit here.
