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 Integrated Performance team owns the holistic view of how Terran R comes together, ensuring that every system on the vehicle and ground is capable of achieving our ambitious objectives. The team works across the full launch system, from trajectory design and aerodynamics to reliability analysis and beyond, with direct influence on all parts of the product lifecycle, from conceptual design to post-flight data review. Beyond analysis, team members engage hands-on with hardware and operations, with the mission and authority to drive meaningful programmatic change. With a unique organizational structure, the integrated performance team spans multiple technical domains and embeds directly with partner teams to solve the hardest multi-disciplinary problems. The team operates with a rare scale: large enough to support complex development, yet small enough that individual contributors have meaningful impact.

The Multibody Dynamics team works collaboratively with adjacent Flight Sciences teams like Loads and Aerodynamics and across the Mechanisms, Structures, Fluids, and GNCP teams to develop robust separation and deployment system architectures, generate associated loads, maintain and improve related analysis tools, provide design and test guidance, and contribute to performance trades on time and budget while meeting our technical requirements. A high degree of autonomy along with an ability to prioritize work in our fast-paced environment is required.

About the Role:

• Architect and analyze Terran R dynamic systems including stage separation, payload fairing separation, and landing
• Collaborate with hardware owners and other analysis teams to identify opportunities to improve performance, reliability, robustness, or simplicity of separation and deployment architectures
• Work closely with Aero, GNCP, Loads, Fluids, and hardware teams to manage analysis inputs, outputs, and indicators to help ensure successful design and operability of separation and deployment systems and interfacing hardware
• Contribute to roadmaps for engineering analysis in collaboration with leadership
• Support test campaigns relating to vehicle separation and deployment components/systems
• Drive maturation of analysis processes, methodology development, and data and results processing and communication

About You:

• Undergrad degree in engineering or a related field
• 5+ years of experience developing/performing multibody dynamic analysis on a launch vehicle, or related program
• Proficiency in Python or similar
• Familiarity with statistics and data analysis

Nice to haves but not required:

• A graduate degree (MS) in engineering or related field and 6+ years relevant experience
• Experience developing analysis toolsets/workflows using both custom and commercial software
• Experience leading anomaly resolutions/failure investigations
• Experience in an engineering analysis team through a full program lifecycle
• Experience with hardware build and/or test

At Relativity Space, we are committed to transparency and fairness in our compensation practices. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience, qualifications, and other job-related factors.

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.
