Job Description

About the Team:

The Launch team operates at the intersection of every major aspect of Terran R, from stages and payloads to ground systems, launch, landing, and refurbishment. The Cape is the only place where you see it all come together, offering a level of exposure and responsibility unmatched elsewhere in the program. This is where first flights happen, where history is built on top of history, and where the scale of what's underway is unlike anything in modern aerospace. The mission stays the same, but the work evolves with every milestone: from first launch to reuse, high-cadence operations, and beyond. If you're looking to define what's next in space launch and write a new playbook, not just repeat what's already been done, this is where it happens.

About the Role:

  • Lead electrical project construction activities for launch and at sea recovery facilities
  • Work on electrical systems across voltages ranging from 22.5 kV to 120 V
  • Support power generation and control, power distribution and protection, fault recovery, and sequencing operations for the Relativity Space recovery vessel that the booster will land on after launch
  • This position will be expected to travel with the recovery vessel for rocket launch recovery and booster securing
  • Develop construction drawings, requests for proposals, bid packages, bid evaluations, subcontractor selection, and subcontractor management
  • Design electrical systems and provide design requirements for other disciplines, including work in hazardous and marine environments
  • Collaborate with management on the development of at sea recovery systems for the Terran R rocket
  • Expected annual travel 25%

About You:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • Professional experience in the marine or construction industry working with electrical systems, including a combination of analysis/design, field implementation, project management, and project execution.
  • Experience applying electrical engineering principles to projects in industrial or infrastructure environments.
  • Ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary teams and manage multiple priorities.

Nice to Haves (Not Required):

  • Experience working with DoD, USAF/USSF, ABYC, and/or NASA standards.
  • Prior experience in aerospace (orbital launch vehicle) or marine sectors.

Successful candidates must clear a background check administered by the US government to obtain clearance for on-site work at our government partner location in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
