<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">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.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">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 </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">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.</span></p></div><p></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong><span data-contrast="none">About the Team:</span></strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The Offshore Recovery team is responsible for designing, building and operating the maritime vessels used to land and recover the Terran R launch vehicle. This isn’t your standard desk job. We are a lean, fast-moving team who cover the full project lifecycle – beginning with system requirements definition and design, hands-on with build and activation in the shipyard, all the way through supporting critical offshore recovery missions at sea. We collaborate with teams across the company, including Terran R designers, launch pad builders and rocket engine testers!</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong><span data-contrast="none">About the Role:</span></strong></span></p> <ul> <li>Support the design, integration, testing, and operation of electrical systems aboard the recovery barge throughout the engineering lifecycle, including development, construction, sea trials, certification, and offshore mission support.</li> <li>Provide engineering support for electrical systems, including low-voltage control systems, rocket ground systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), networking, high-power distribution, and RF telemetry.</li> <li>Support offshore recovery operations by verifying electrical system functionality and assisting with troubleshooting to enable safe and reliable landing and recovery of Terran R.</li> <li>Collaborate with engineering, marine, and operations teams to resolve technical issues, improve system performance, and support mission readiness.</li> <li>Incorporate lessons learned from initial recovery operations into the design and integration of future landing platforms and recovery systems.</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong><span data-contrast="none">About You:</span></strong></span></p> <ul> <li>You have a bachelor’s degree or higher in engineering, with academic projects, internships, or other hands-on experience applying engineering principles to physical hardware or electrical systems.</li> <li>You have a foundational understanding of electrical engineering principles and can apply technical knowledge to unfamiliar systems and engineering challenges.</li> <li>You can communicate technical information clearly and coordinate effectively with engineering, construction, and operations teams.</li> <li>You can work collaboratively across disciplines, contribute to shared technical objectives, and support activities outside your primary area of responsibility as project needs evolve.</li> <li>You are willing to travel an average of at least 25% of the time, with potential for weekend work and schedule variations to support shipyard activities, construction, sea trials, certification, and offshore mission operations.</li> <li>You can work in marine and offshore environments as required by the role, including supporting field activities and collaborating with teams during system integration, testing, and operational readiness.</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Nice to haves but not required:</span></strong></span></p> <ul> <li>Familiarity with low-voltage control systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), networking, or RF systems.</li> <li>Familiarity with high-power electrical distribution systems.</li> <li>Experience supporting engineering, testing, or operations in a marine environment.</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><strong><span data-contrast="none">Successful candidates must clear a bac
