Job Details

About the Team:The Quality team is focused on embedding quality into every part of the design and production process for Terran R. Not just inspecting at the end but influencing how things are built from the start. The team embeds themselves directly within design, manufacturing, test, and launchteams to stay close to the hardware, understand constraints, and proactively shape decisions. As we move beyond initial development into production and then scaled operations, now is the time to put the right processes, controls, and inspections in place without slowing down progress. The team plays a key role in balancing risk, driving a culture of ownership, and ensuring that speed doesn't come at the cost of reliability. Success here means building a quality system that scales with the Terran R program and Relativity as a whole.This is a 1st shift position with a standard schedule of 5:00AM-3:30PM, Monday through Friday. Please note that this position is structured around a baseline expectation of a 50-hour workweek, which may include occasional overtime as needed to meet operational goals.About the Role:* Conduct thorough inspections (in-process and final) on propulsion components, large structures and mechanical assemblies.* Use precision hand tools to perform dimensional inspections on flight hardware* Identify opportunities for process improvements and contribute to the development and implementation of quality initiatives within the organization.* Diligently review all hardware requirements and determine pass/fail status, documenting outcomes and any non-conformances or deviations found* Take closeout photos of large integrated assemblies upon completion of final walkdowns.* Use borescopes to perform FOD inspections on machined parts or other assembly cavities.About You:* 2+ years of quality inspection experience in an aerospace manufacturing environment, supporting production and development hardware.* Expert proficiency with precision hand tools (micrometers, calipers, bore gages)* Ability to collaborate with design engineering, manufacturing, and production teams to address inspection findings and quality issues.* Demonstrated ability to perform thorough inspections and ensure strict compliance with quality standards and regulatory requirements.* Clear and effective communicator, capable of interfacing with inspectors, engineers, production personnel, and quality stakeholders.* Hands-on experience with MRB processes, including identification, documentation, and disposition of non-conforming hardware, along with the ability to stand for extended periods on the production floor, climb ladders, work in confined space, and lift up to 25 lbs.Nice to haves but not required:* Prior experience inspecting COPVs and/or avionics hardware, including electrical connectors, harnesses, and integrated assemblies.* Demonstrated ability to take initiative, lead projects, or influence quality improvement efforts without formal authority.* Highly organized and capable of bringing structure to ambiguous or previously undefined environments.* Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) certification.
