Propulsion Components Test Specialist II
Long Beach, CaliforniaAt 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.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 engine manufacturing department's mission is to produce high performing products & manufacturing systems by continuously innovating on cost, quality, and lead time. Through cross-functional collaboration, high levels of accountability, and a focus on safety we support the Terran R program. We are responsible for providing design feedback on new hardware iterations, developing new manufacturing methods and systems, and ultimately building engine and vehicle hardware for testing prior to our first launch.About the Role:As a Propulsion Component Test Specialist, you will ensure test requirements are met in an accurate and efficient manner. Your responsibilities will include designing, fabricating, and operating test assets & equipment for pneumatic, hydraulic, thermal/cryogenic, environmental, electromechanical, and dynamics (shock & vibration) testing in support of the development, qualification, and recurring acceptance of flight hardware for the Aeon-R and Terran-R programs.
