Senior PCB Design Engineer

About the Team:

The Avionics team is responsible for the full lifecycle of Terran R's nervous system, designing, building, testing, installing, and operating the hardware that connects and controls every major electrical system on the vehicle and ground. The team's structure intentionally combines avionics design, manufacturing, and test to enable rapid iteration and feedback loops. Engineers are deeply embedded into other functions within Relativity, working closely with propulsion, GNC, fluids, and stage engineering teams to ensure seamless integration and operation. Now is a unique time to join: you'll get to help shape Terran R's fundamental avionics architecture and be given a high degree of ownership on components that will fly.

About the Role:

As a Senior Avionics PCB Engineer you will support in-house printed circuit board design and development, supporting Avionics engineers in critical tasks like PCB layout, component review, Altium eCAD management, and overall PCBA lifecycle development. A strong candidate will be able to lead PCBA layout, improve designs to enable manufacturability/quality, and optimize component mechanical design.

About You:

• 7+ years of hands-on PCB Design experience in Altium or similar eCAD software
• Experience with PCB design for high-speed digital components or high voltage power electronics applications
• Experience designing for manufacturability and overall understanding of PCBA lifecycle
• Experience designing PCBAs for harsh environments such as extreme thermal conditions or random vibration

Nice to haves but not required:

• Experience with PCB fabrication and assembly vendor management
• Demonstrated experience defining design rules, leading eCAD library management, and review process
• Experience supporting anomaly investigations for PCBA failures seen in manufactuing or test
• Experience with PLM software such as Teamcenter
