Sr CNC Setup Operator, 2nd Shift
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:
The mission of the Engine Manufacturing Department is to deliver high-performing products and innovative manufacturing systems while driving continuous improvements in cost, quality, and lead time. Through cross-functional collaboration, high levels of accountability, and a focus on safety we play a crucial role in building our reusable rocket, Terran-R. We are responsible for providing design feedback on new hardware iterations, pioneering and implementing advanced manufacturing methods and systems, and ultimately delivering engine and vehicle hardware for testing prior to launch. Over the past year, the Engine Manufacturing Team has successfully developed, iterated, and delivered processes and hardware for the first Aeon-R development engines. Now, we are entering a critical phase: producing flight engines that will pave the way for Terran-R's inaugural launch to orbit.
About the Role:
- Setup CNC Machinery including Multi-Axis Milling, Lathe, and Mill-Turn Turning centers
- Operate CNC mills and lathes and ensure the production schedule is satisfied
- Select and monitor tooling and fixturing to ensure all hardware is conforming when leaving the shop
- Exercise a mindset of continued learning as you develop new skills towards programming and machining
About You:
- 6+ years of experience setting up and operating CNC mills or lathes in a production environment
- Experience working with manufacturing engineers in R&D or production settings
- Understanding of GD&T and how to interpret engineering drawings
- Experience operating multi-axis CNC machines
Nice to haves but not required:
- Experience with programming CNC machines
- DMG Mori/CELOS experience is a plus
