Product Engineer

Company Overview:

At Relativity Space, we have two audacious goals: to build the next great commercial launch company with Terran R and to become America’s leading force in additive manufacturing innovation. Both contribute to our long-term vision of creating humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to expand the possibilities of the human experience. This journey begins right here on Earth – where we design, build, and fly rockets to deliver customer payloads to orbit. Terran R, our medium-to-heavy lift reusable rocket, fulfills the growing demand for launch capacity, thanks to our iterative approach that accelerates design, testing, and development while minimizing costs. While our groundbreaking research and development in 3D printing pushes the boundaries of large-scale additive manufacturing.

Your journey with us is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to shape the future of aerospace technology, additive manufacturing, and the human experience alongside a community of passionate, creative individuals. Join us on this extraordinary journey, as we work together to transform our vision into reality.

About the Team: 

Supply Chain at Relativity encompasses direct supply management for all Terran-R parts and materials, indirect supply management for the Long Beach site, and materials management.  Put simply, we own the value chain from identification of a need to delivery to our internal customer.  The Supply Chain team’s vision is to build a best-in-class, responsive, and data-driven supply chain management organization that is a key competitive advantage for Relativity.  Supply Chain is currently putting that vision into practice through sourcing long-lead parts, production equipment, and infrastructure projects for Terran R production.  We have had numerous accomplishments with high-dollar, impactful projects by collaborating closely with finance, manufacturing, and engineering to deliver excellent value and keep our aggressive Terran R schedule on track.

• Develop and implement technical infrastructure to support MRP "process-as-a-product" workflows, focusing on scalability, reliability, and performance to integrate MRP solutions with existing supply chain systems and other enterprise software
• Lead the development of new features and enhancements, using best practices in systems engineering to ensure high-quality systems architecture
• Continuously assess and optimize the performance of MRP and MRP-related processes, leveraging data-driven insights to enhance efficiency and effectiveness
• Oversee the testing and validation of planning and execution systems, ensuring they meet functional and performance criteria before deployment, and resolve technical issues to minimize disruption
• Maintain comprehensive documentation of system designs, technical specifications, and process workflows
• Partner with product managers, data analysts, and other stakeholders on a highly technical level to form key partnership, understand requirements, define technical specifications, and drive strategic value creation to the enterprise

About You:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Supply Chain/Operations Management, or a related discipline
• 5+ years of working in a supply chain engineering, product engineering, or software engineering role with a focus on MRP or ERP systems within an advanced manufacturing environment
• Advanced knowledge of supply chain evaluation, performance management, and development
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Java, Python, or C#, as well as SQL

Nice to haves but not required: 

• Strong understanding of technical infrastructure and system architecture
• Experience with cloud platforms and distributed systems
• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
