Avionics Production Expeditor
Relativity SpaceLong Beach, CaliforniaPosted 30 March 2026
Job Description
At Relativity Space, we’re building rockets to serve today’s needs and tomorrow’s breakthroughs. Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity. But that’s just the start. Achieving commercial success with Terran R will unlock new opportunities to advance science, exploration, and innovation, pioneering progress that reaches beyond the known.
Joining Relativity means becoming part of something where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level. Here, you're not just executing tasks; you're solving problems that haven’t been solved before, helping develop a rocket, a factory, and a business from the ground up. Whether you’re in propulsion, manufacturing, software, avionics, or a corporate function, you’ll collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time. Relativity is a place where creativity and
technical rigor go hand in hand, and your voice will help define the stories we’re writing together. 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 Avionics team is responsible for the full lifecycle of Terran R’s nervous system, designing, building, testing, installing, and operating the hardware that connects and controls every major electrical system on the vehicle and ground. The team’s structure intentionally combines avionics design, manufacturing, and test to enable rapid iteration and feedback loops. Engineers are deeply embedded into other functions within Relativity, working closely with propulsion, GNC, fluids, and stage engineering teams to ensure seamless integration and operation. Now is a unique time to join: you’ll get to help shape Terran R's fundamental avionics architecture and be given a high degree of ownership on components that will fly.
About the Role:
Drive production flow, ensuring avionics hardware moves efficiently from material readiness through build and test
Serve as the main point of contact for round-trip deliveries between factories
Own material readiness, including tracking shortages, supporting kitting, and enabling on-time starts
Partner cross-functionally (procurement, planning, quality, manufacturing engineering) to keep production on schedule
Monitor WIP and proactively identify and resolve production blockers to maintain flow
Support production operations on the floor, including communication between teams and workspace/5S improvements
About You:
Experience with material management and operating vans/trucks
Basic mechanical skills, including use of hand tools
Comfortable working on the production floor and engaging with technicians and engineers
Proficient with Excel
High attention to detail with strong execution and follow-through
Strong communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
Nice to haves but not required:
Bachelor’s degree with 2+ years in manufacturing, production, or supply chain support
Experience with avionics/aerospace standards (IPC-A-610, IPC/WHMA-A-620, NASA-STD-8739)
Hands-on experience developing or optimizing workstations, tooling, and layouts, with Lean/Six Sigma familiarity
Technical background in electronics or harness design, build, or test
