    Stage Propulsion Engineer II - Long Beach, United States - Relativity Space

    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    Company 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 Vehicle Engineering Team is responsible for the design, analysis, and validation of our launch vehicle. As a Fluids Engineer, you will be solving the toughest thermal fluids challenges on the rocket as part of a world-class engineering hardware team.

    You will work collaboratively with propulsion, GNC, manufacturing, test, launch, and other teams to design all fluids systems necessary to successfully launch and recover a rocket. A high degree of autonomy along with an ability to prioritize work in our fast-paced environment is required. We believe varied perspectives & backgrounds strengthen our team. Prior experience in aerospace is not required.

    About the Role:

    In this role, you will be responsible for the mechanical and structural implementation of the stage fluid systems, ensuring a reliable and efficient operation of our Terran R launch vehicle.

    • Fluids routing and design trade studies
    • Fluids hardware mounting structure design
    • Fluid system hardware mechanical verification analysis including both hand calcs and FEA
    • Structural design of mounting hardware for various fluid system component and routing
    • Incorporate 3D printing methods and in fluid system mechanical design
    • Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA)

    The right person for this role will need to be someone who enjoys leading the way for the team on exploring new methods and design approaches. They will have end to end ownership of their designs and immediately see hardware you designed come to fruition. They must be flexible to changes in strategic direction and willing to take full ownership of their projects to ensure we as a company are producing the best possible product while incorporating innovative production methods into their designs.

    About You:

    • Bachelor's degree in mechanical or an equivalent engineering discipline
    • 2+ years mechanical design experience
    • Experience with a commercial CAD package (NX, CREO, Solidworks)
    • Experience with GD&T
    • Project ownership experience
    • Manufacturing experience or experience interacting with vendors
    • Experience with fluid system components (fittings, seals, valves, regulators, etc.) and system testing
    • Experience with FEA tools to analyze structural margins

    We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
