Relativity Space is building the Terran R rocket to deliver payloads to orbit and advance commercial space launch. The Senior Quality Engineer will join the Launch team at Cape Canaveral, operating at the intersection of all major aspects of the rocket program—from stages and payloads to ground systems, launch, landing, and refurbishment.
In this role, you will oversee in-process build verification, issue ticket workflows, as-built verification, and non-conformance management while establishing project goals, priorities, and completion criteria. You'll develop and improve quality processes by reviewing work instructions, creating corrective action plans, and preparing standardized rework and repair documentation to support Test and Launch operations.
Key responsibilities include supporting the AS9100 Quality Management System (QMS) by collaborating with the QMS team to develop, implement, and maintain policies and procedures relevant to Test and Launch Quality. You will work closely with Test and Launch, Manufacturing, and Hardware Responsible Engineering teams to resolve quality issues, align priorities, and support program and company objectives.
You will analyze quality data and performance metrics to identify trends, investigate root causes, develop corrective actions, and recommend initiatives that improve product and process quality. Clear communication of quality findings, risks, recommendations, and project status to team members, technical leaders, and management is essential to support timely and informed decision-making.
This is an opportunity to work on first flights, reusable rocket operations, and high-cadence launch cadence at a company pioneering commercial space launch. The Cape is where all aspects of the program come together, offering exposure and responsibility unmatched elsewhere.
