The Avionics team is responsible for the full lifecycle of all electronics and supporting hardware central to operating Relativity's rockets. The team designs, builds, tests, integrates, and operates the hardware which controls the rocket in flight, downlinks critical telemetry, keeps the public safe, and deploys our customers' payloads to orbit! Our hardware enables Relativity to reliably control our rockets while maintaining the flexibility to rapidly iterate our designs. As a member of this team, you will design innovative hardware solutions capable of surviving harsh launch and space environments. Your designs will support multiple vehicle systems such as sensors, propulsion, computing, actuation, energy management, and communications.About the RoleWork with Propulsion, Fluids, Structures, Flight Sciences, and other teams to identify and develop vehicle instrumentation requirementsIdentify sensors and actuators such as pressure transducers; RTDs; thermocouples; accelerometers; solenoid valves; etc. that are suitable for use on the Terran 1 and Terran R launch vehiclesCollaborate with Avionics Hardware engineers to ensure designed system meets instrumentation requirements such as ranges, resolutions, sample rates, and cutoff frequenciesMaintain electrical interface and sensor/actuator configuration control: naming and channelization, serial numbers, calibrations, and data acquisition settingsDevelop and execute on-vehicle sensor calibration and checkout plansOversee procurement, qualification, and acceptance testing of vehicle instrumentationUp to 25% travel to our test and launch sites in Stennis Space Center, MS and Cape Canaveral, FLAbout YouBachelor's degree or higher with a focus in an engineering discipline: aerospace, electrical, mechanical, etc.3+ years of experience with development and integration of instrumentation and data acquisition systems for complex, mission‑critical products (flight test, rocket launch systems, automotive, large‑scale manufacturing, robotics, etc.)Experience with sensors and actuators such as pressure transducers, RTDs, accelerometers, strain gages, frequency‑to‑DC sensors, microphones, thermocouples, solenoid valves, etc.Excellent understanding of instrumentation and data acquisition fundamentals: measurement theory, Nyquist sampling theorem, DC circuit basics, grounding and shielding, analog‑to‑digital conversionDemonstrated ownership, accountability, and success in delivering complex products with minimal guidanceStrong interpersonal communication skillsNice to haves but not requiredExperience writing test plans and documentationFamiliarity with scripting languages such as Python or MATLAB for data acquisition, recording, and analysisExperience with instrumentation in harsh environments (cryogenic temperatures, high vibration)Previous experience with COTS data acquisition systems such as NI, Curtiss‑Wright, Safran, or BeckhoffUnderstanding of digital buses such as Ethernet, CAN, I2C, SPIRelativity 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.
