Relativity Space is building rockets and advanced manufacturing systems to serve commercial space launch and industrial automation. As a Senior Electrical Engineer within Horizon Manufacturing Technologies (a distinct business unit), you will design and develop the electrical backbone for a next-generation cooperative multi-robot platform that integrates robotic arms, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and manufacturing subsystems into a unified, coordinated cell.
Key responsibilities include:
• Electrical Architecture & Hardware Development: Design robust electrical architectures for robotic arms, AMRs, and supporting manufacturing equipment. Develop custom electrical hardware that enables reliable, scalable performance across complex robotic platforms.
• Power Distribution & Routing: Lead the design and routing of power across low-voltage and high-current systems, ensuring safe and reliable delivery to motors, sensors, tools, battery systems, and onboard compute.
• AMR Electrical Development: Support early-stage design and buildout of a custom autonomous mobile robot, defining and implementing its electrical systems.
• System Integration & Optimization: Contribute to the development, integration, and optimization of industrial automation systems. Unify power and data architecture across the platform, improve reliability of electrical performance, and simplify system integration.
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work alongside welders, robotics engineers, data scientists, and systems engineers at the intersection of hardware and software to create an end-to-end additive manufacturing platform.
This role sits at the frontier of manufacturing innovation, where cutting-edge R&D is industrialized into production. You'll help define the electrical systems behind a highly collaborative robotic platform that pushes the boundaries of autonomy, coordination, and advanced manufacturing. The team operates with high autonomy and ownership; your work will have immediate, visible impact on a tangible product gaining momentum.
