SalaryCompany 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.
About the Team:
The Additive Development team at Relativity Space will develop, create, and operate the most advanced additive manufacturing technologies in the world. This best-in-class team makes sure that the infrastructure, materials, tools, and equipment are in place for us to rapidly iterate and print. The Additive Powder Bed Fusion team is crucial to developing and demonstrating groundbreaking technologies, design, and approaches for Aeon-R!
About the Role:
- Develop additive manufacturing processes to continuously improve manufacturing cost, quality, and lead time.
- Produce additively manufactured components that rapidly enable high performance liquid propulsion hardware.
- Holistically own and optimize the total manufacturing process including, design for additive, build file programing, manufacturing work instructions, and quality verification.
- Develop, optimize, and productionize process parameters for various alloys and machine systems and develop tools and techniques to accelerate and automate that process.
- Execute material failure investigations, conduct root cause analyses, and implement corrective actions.
- Develop new tools, techniques, and applications that automate existing processes and standardize on performance-based benchmarks.
- Support material and process team with characterization and qualification of various alloys.
About You:
- Demonstrated ability to define and implement new engineering processes
- Effectively communicate technical information within a diverse team
- Proficient in at least one CAD program, design for additive manufacturing, and GD&T
- Expert knowledge of laser powder bed fusion, printer primary subsystems, and post-processes
- 0-1+ years of experience working in aerospace, medical devices, or ISO environments
- 0-1+ years of experience in mechanical or materials engineering related roles
- 0-1+ years of experience working on metallic additive manufacturing
- Working knowledge of typical manufacturing execution systems (MES) and quality management systems
Nice to haves but not required:
- Advanced degree (MS) in Material Science, Materials Engineering, Metallurgy, Mechanical Engineering, or another related field
- Familiarity with processing large datasets and statistical data analysis software such as R, JMP, or Minitab
- Familiarity with design and operation of liquid propellent engine systems
- Serve as materials subject matter expert on powder bed fusion team
- Proficient at oriented programming (Python, JS, C#, or Java)
- Experience in leveraging API's and real-time data sources to build applications in a production environment
- Developing APIs and building applications on them in a production environment
- Six Sigma/Lean manufacturing training
Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous vacation policy, an annual L&D stipend and more!
