Relativity Space is building rockets to serve today's needs and tomorrow's breakthroughs. The Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting growing demand for launch capacity. The company is at a unique inflection point—early enough to shape product, process, and culture, but far enough along that Terran R is tangible and gaining momentum.
The EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) team carries a profound responsibility to keep people and environments safe while building the future. The team is not here to slow things down; rather, 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. EHS has a voice at every level and uses it to build a culture where safety is a shared responsibility amongst all employees.
As a Senior EHS Specialist, you will be an initiator and leader for tasks and objectives related to larger projects and EHS strategy at Relativity's locations. You will serve as a strategic project manager, safety culture driver, and EHS subject matter expert.
Key responsibilities include:
- Driving incident investigation, root cause analysis, and corrective action management
- Developing and reviewing risk assessments, such as Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs)
- Providing collaborative EHS support to departments across the site, including engineers, specialists, and technicians
- Driving initiatives that foster a positive safety culture across team partnerships
- Preparing and providing OSHA compliance support for EHS-related activities and documentation
- Monitoring hazardous chemicals, handling, storage, and spill prevention; assessing risks and driving mitigation controls to lower risk exposure
You will collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time. This is an opportunity to help define safety processes and culture at a high-growth aerospace company.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Bachelor's degree in Occupational Health, Safety, Environmental Sciences, or similar field
- Minimum 5+ years' experience working in the EHS field
- Project management experience with various safety programs in a dynamic manufacturing environment, including but not limited to: Crane, High Pressure, High Voltage, Industrial Hygiene, and Laser Safety

- Strategic and collaborative mindset with ability to work across varying departments and levels to provide subject matter expert (SME) EHS support
