EHS Specialist III

About the Team:

The EHS team carries a profound responsibility to keep people and the environments where we operate safe while we build the future. We're not here to slow things down; we're here to enable safe speed. At this stage in Relativity's trajectory, you'll have the rare opportunity to shape how EHS is embedded in every process and decision, from the factory floor to the launch pad. We have a voice at every level, and we use it to build a culture where EHS isn't just about compliance, but rather a shared responsibility amongst all employees.

About the Role:

• Collaborate with engineering and operational teams from technician level to site leadership to provide safety insights for complex processes.
• Identify hazards, perform risk assessments like Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs), and implement effective control measures.
• Participate in the build and activation of launch pad ground support equipment, including high pressure gas systems, cryogenic systems, flammable liquids, electrical systems, mechanical systems, and more.
• Build out safety processes and programs for Launch Operations based on on-site observations, identified gaps, and feedback from all levels of personnel.
• Balance time between program development and in-field support, helping to build on our positive safety culture through visibility and availability.
• Conduct safety audits, inspections, and incident investigations using root cause investigation strategies and provide meaningful corrective action recommendations.
• Long term this position will include vehicle processing and launch support, which covers a wide range of EHS topics. These areas may include fall protection, hearing protection, respiratory protection, hazard communication, industrial hygiene, confined spaces, control of hazardous energy and more.

About You:

• Bachelor's degree in Safety, Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Minimum 3+ years of EHS experience. Preferred experience in launch operations, aerospace manufacturing, pressure systems, or other complex technical environments.
• Familiarity with OSHA, ANSI, ASME, and/or related safety standards.
• Experience conducting risk assessments, hazard analysis, and incident investigations in complex technical environments.
• Experience in project management and continuous improvement strategies for various safety programs in a high-speed technical environment.

Nice to haves but not required:

• Experience in developing and providing EHS training.
• Familiarity with environmental compliance topics such as hazardous waste.
• Relevant Certifications: Associate Safety Professional (ASP), Certified Safety Professional (CSP), OSHA 30 hour, RCRA/DOT, or other professional safety certifications.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office tools. • Strong organizational, analytical, and time-management skills.
