Sr Dynamic Environments Engineer

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 Integrated Performance team owns the holistic view of how Terran R comes together, ensuring that every system on the vehicle and ground is capable of achieving our ambitious objectives. The team works across the full launch system, from trajectory design and aerodynamics to reliability analysis and beyond, with direct influence on all parts of the product lifecycle, from conceptual design to post-flight data review. Beyond analysis, team members engage hands-on with hardware and operations, with the mission and authority to drive meaningful programmatic change. With a unique organizational structure, the integrated performance team spans multiple technical domains and embeds directly with partner teams to solve the hardest multi-disciplinary problems. The team operates with a rare scale: large enough to support complex development, yet small enough that individual contributors have meaningful impact.The Dynamics team works collaboratively with other Flight Sciences teams and across Stage Engineering, Fluids, Propulsion, Avionics, Test and Launch teams to develop analysis tools, test levels, vehicle and ground loads, and separation and deployment system architectures on time and budget while meeting our technical requirements. A high degree of autonomy along with an ability to prioritize work in our fast-paced environment is requiredAbout the Role: Perform analysis of Terran R vibration, shock, and acoustic environments including definition of forcing functions, loads, levels, criteria, and product managementManage implementation and validation of Dynamics instrumentation and measurement systems in partnership with Avionics to ensure reliable test and flight data captureProactively support test planning and execution related to vibration, shock, acousticsContribute to maturation of analysis processes, related hardware/test criteria, and communication of results to programDevelop payload interface vibration/shock/acoustic levels, interface with Mission Management and customers as needed to determine spec compliance and paths to improvementCollaborate with REs to identify opportunities to improve reliability, robustness, or simplicity of affected hardwareMentor more junior analysts to be hardware-focused, collaborative, technically rigorous, and practical in their approachAbout You: A bachelor’s degree or higher in engineering or related field5+ working experience with launch vehicles or rocketsExperience performing vibration/shock/acoustic analysis on a launch vehicle programExperience developing dynamic test levels and criteria related to the aboveHigh speed instrumentation and signal processing Demonstrated experience driving dynamics issues to closure across mechanical, fluids or other domainsNice to Haves, but Not Required: Experience developing analysis toolsets/workflows using both custom and commercial softwareExperience leading anomaly resolutions/failure investigationsExperience in an engineering analysis team through a full program lifecycleAt Relativity Space, we are committed to transparency and fairness in our compensation practices.
