About the Job

Requirements

  • 2–3+ years of experience in industrial maintenance, equipment maintenance, or a related technical field, preferably within advanced manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, or high-volume production environments.
  • Strong electrical and mechanical troubleshooting capability, including experience with programmable logic controllers, motors, sensors, hydraulics, pneumatics, and machine control systems.
  • Experience supporting, maintaining, or repairing CNC machines, automation systems, or other complex manufacturing equipment.
  • Ability to work independently while helping coordinate and support the work of others during shift execution.
  • Ability to clearly share priorities, escalate issues, and support cross-functional alignment with production and maintenance leadership.
  • Strong understanding of safety procedures, lockout/tagout, and manufacturing maintenance best practices.

Responsibilities

  • Perform troubleshooting, diagnostics, repairs, and preventive maintenance on machinery, including CNC machines, circumferential stir welders, EDM machines, ultrasonic tanks, and other advanced manufacturing equipment.
  • Use technical documentation, schematics, and hands-on troubleshooting to diagnose electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic system failures.
  • Help coordinate technician workflow, prioritize tasks, and align work with production needs, equipment availability, labor coverage, and urgency.
  • Serve as a hands-on Asset Maintenance Technician and act as a shift-level mentor, resource, and first point of contact for operational questions and workflow escalations.
  • Help maintain shift coverage, communicate daily priorities, and escalate blockers, safety concerns, equipment issues, or resource constraints to leadership.
  • Collaborate with production teams to address equipment issues, reduce downtime, and implement solutions that improve operational efficiency.
  • Assist with installing, commissioning, and maintaining new equipment while ensuring compliance with safety, quality, and operational standards.
  • Support preventive maintenance schedules and help ensure maintenance activities are completed accurately, consistently, and on time.
  • Track maintenance activity, equipment status, and recurring issues using CMMS or similar tracking tools.
  • Identify opportunities to improve maintenance processes, shift execution, troubleshooting consistency, equipment uptime, and overall team performance.
  • Provide informal coaching, real-time support, and day-to-day guidance to team members to improve execution, consistency, and technical capability across the shift.
  • Support KPIs and operational metrics related to equipment uptime, response time, preventive maintenance completion, safety, and maintenance execution.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with advanced automation systems, robotics, or highly integrated manufacturing equipment.
  • Familiarity with CMMS software for maintenance tracking, work order management, and reporting.
  • Background in vibration analysis, thermal imaging, predictive maintenance, or reliability-centered maintenance.
  • Prior experience as a shift lead, team lead, senior technician, or informal technical mentor.
  • Experience supporting maintenance operations in aerospace, automotive, defense, or other highly regulated manufacturing environments.

About the Company

Relativity Space

Develops 3D-printed reusable rockets for launches

Relativity Space designs and launches rockets that are largely built with 3D-printed parts. Its core product line includes the Terran R, a medium-to-heavy lift rocket designed to be reusable and capable of delivering payloads to LEO and GTO. The company works by using advanced additive manufacturing to print most rocket structures and components in-house, reducing parts, complexity, and production time, and then offers launch services to customers who want to put satellites or other payloads into space. Unlike many peers, Relativity Space relies on a predominantly 3D-printed, vertically integrated approach with its own proprietary designs and manufacturing processes, aiming to streamline production and cut costs. The goal is to make access to space cheaper and more reliable by building a scalable, in-house manufacturing platform and a reusable rocket fleet that can deploy payloads on demand.
