Description
At Relativity Space, we’re building rockets to serve today’s needs and tomorrow’s breakthroughs. Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity. But that’s just the start. Achieving commercial success with Terran R will unlock new opportunities to advance science, exploration, and innovation, pioneering progress that reaches beyond the known.
Joining Relativity means becoming part of something where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level. Here, you're not just executing tasks; you're solving problems that haven’t been solved before, helping develop a rocket, a factory, and a business from the ground up. Whether you’re in propulsion, manufacturing, software, avionics, or a corporate function, you’ll collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time. Relativity is a place where creativity and technical rigor go hand in hand, and your voice will help define the stories we’re writing together. Now is a unique moment in time where it’s early enough to leave your mark on the product, the process, and the culture, but far enough along that Terran R is tangible and picking up momentum. The most meaningful work of your career is waiting. Join us.
About the Team:
You will be a part of the People team which is a core enabler of the business, with a true seat at the table and broad visibility across the company. From compensation and benefits to performance and onboarding, the team takes a comprehensive approach to supporting employees and leaders alike. We embed ourselves into departments, understanding needs and shaping the foundational strategies that will help individuals thrive as the company scales. Every challenge is an opportunity to solve for what really matters, with agility, empathy, and creativity. You will directly support the Stennis Test team who designs, builds, and operates Relativity’s propulsion and stage test stands. Team members are hands-on with large-scale, complex systems including fully integrated engines and stage assemblies, pushing hardware to the limits and directly contributing to flight readiness. The work is fast-paced and highly operational, ideal for those with backgrounds in aviation, automotive, manufacturing, offshore operations, industrial systems, construction, or adjacent industries. You’ll work in a close-knit, dynamic environment where collaboration between technicians, operators, and engineers is not only encouraged, but expected. As the company scales, the Stennis Test team becomes even more critical to unlocking our next phase of growth: proving out full-stage systems and paving the way for routine, reliable flights of Terran R.

About this role
# About This Role
Relativity Space is seeking a Senior Technical Trainer to design and deliver training programs for the Stennis Test team, which operates the company's propulsion and stage test stands. You'll work directly with subject matter experts and test technicians to identify learning needs, develop training content for both in-person and virtual delivery, and manage the full training lifecycle—from scheduling and materials preparation through feedback collection and compliance tracking. This role bridges the People team and a fast-paced, hands-on operational group, requiring you to understand complex propulsion systems and translate that knowledge into effective learning experiences.
The ideal candidate brings at least five years of technical training experience, ideally in aerospace maintenance or manufacturing. You'll need strong communication skills, proficiency with learning management systems and Microsoft Office, and the analytical mindset to continuously measure training effectiveness and drive improvements. As the Stennis Test team scales to support Terran R's next phase, you'll help build the training infrastructure and systems that enable reliable, routine operations. The role is based in Mississippi and requires in-office work; you'll need to clear a US government background check for access to the test facility.
This is a full-time position with a salary range of $108,000 to $162,000, plus equity, generous PTO, parental leave, and an annual learning and development stipend.
