Senior Propulsion Simulation Engineer - Long Beach, United States - Relativity Space
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 Propulsion Engineering team at Relativity Space is responsible for engines that will power the Terran R launch vehicle. We own the design from concept through successful launch and reuse and we work with our partner teams to manufacture, test and integrate those engines. We're developing these engines in record time, going from initial sizing point of the Aeon R engine in early 2022 to a successful integrated, full duration hot fire test in late 2023. Over the next year, we will test 3 iterations of Aeon R, our booster engine, culminating in qualification for flight, and test our first iteration or Aeon R Vac, our second stage engine. As a part of this team, you will help build, test and iterate on the full product lifecycle of our Aeon-R engine systems from concept through launch and reuse.
About the Role:
In this role, you will build and apply thermo-fluids simulation tools (primarily 1D) to model various systems across the Aeon engine. You will use these tools to support a variety of efforts including engine test campaigns, supporting trade studies, guiding component design, augmenting test data review, developing engine sequences, and predicting/tuning operating condition & performance. You will be responsible for identifying weaknesses in our simulation tools, and post-processing engine test data to improve our understanding/modeling of engine systems. You will also take ownership of projects of your creation to increase our collective efficiency.
To be successful in this role, you should be capable of collaborating with partner teams and performing the above responsibilities with minimal oversight. You should also be a self-starter who is always looking for ways to improve yourself & learn more about your system (and others that interface with it). Along with these high expectations comes the opportunity to have a significant influence on a fast-growing startup company and to make rapid professional gains in an environment that encourages growth and risk.
This role requires an average of 15% travel to our test & launch sites and may occasionally require shifted schedules or weekend work for critical milestones.
About You:
Nice to haves, but not required:
Relativity Space offers competitive salary and equity, a generous vacation policy, an annual L&D stipend and more
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.
