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 Tooling and Factory Automation team sits at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and automation, creating everything from large-scale structural fixtures to small tools that directly enable Terran R's production. As a design group embedded within the manufacturing organization, the team digs deep into the needs of internal partners to understand root problems, propose solutions, and deliver hardware to help build faster, scale smarter, and work better. The team is also at the forefront of Relativity's growing factory automation efforts, an increasingly critical part of scaling production of Terran R at existing and future facilities.
In this Staff Technical Program Manager role, you will collaborate with leadership to forge a strategic growth roadmap for the Tooling and Factory Automation organization that propels company-wide objectives and partnerships. You will create and facilitate team infrastructure in the form of frameworks, digital productivity tools, and physical resources. You will coordinate people, scope, timelines, interactions, and communications to achieve the highest standards of team effectiveness and service to customers. You will contribute to innovation through direct engagement in design activities and definition of strategic technological initiatives. You will establish and track metrics that define the team's impact. You'll have the autonomy to make decisions, field solutions, and see them in action on the factory floor. Ultimately, you're not just delivering tools or automated processes; you're defining how rockets and factories get built.
