Company Overview:

Relativity is the first and only company to automate aerospace manufacturing by integrating intelligent robotics, software, and proprietary metal 3D printing technology. Disrupting 60 years of aerospace, Relativity offers a radically simplified supply chain, building a rocket with 100x fewer parts in less than 60 days. Our long-term goal is to upgrade humanity’s industrial base on Earth and on Mars.

Team:

Relativity seeks a highly talented Software System Engineer to join the Avionics & Software organization. This position will take an embedded device from a prototype to a flight-ready component through a complex test and verification campaign. This role will own the certification, analysis, and testing of safety-critical software and embedded devices, and work with internal teams and regulatory agencies to ensure the system meets all requirements.

What you’ll do:

  • Take embedded software from development-level maturity to a flight-ready system
  • Work with government agencies to ensure compliance to all safety requirements
  • Establish schedule and test plans to qualify all safety critical hardware/software
  • Produce analyses to validate the system design
  • This role is heavy in certification activities - attention to detail with clear and precise communication skills are crucial

What you need to know:

  • An undergraduate or graduate degree in a relevant engineering discipline (Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering)
  • Demonstrated capability to manage a hardware/software project to completion.
  • Experience designing, developing, and testing embedded software.
  • Experience tailoring design and test requirements with government agencies.
  • Ability to perform analysis to clearly demonstrate fault architecture meets requirements.

Nice to have but not required:

  • Prior work on a complex vehicle, or hardware/software simulation test platform
  • Experience with regulations such as DO-178C or similar software safety standards such as ISO26262, IEC 62304, or MISRA-C/C++
  • Experience with software-in-the-loop testing, software failure analysis, and other software tests/analyses
