Industrial Gases Technician

About the Team: 

The Facilities team ensures that every operation across the site is “go” at all times supporting everything from power and utilities to highly specialized machines like industrial 3D printers. Our 1 million square foot headquarters is complex: one structure but functionally 20 mini factories under one roof. That complexity brings unmatched opportunities to grow your skills through cross-training and ownership of specialized systems. With rapid expansion and development of the facility we’re helping build a truly state-of-the-art work environment. This team is deeply embedded in both planning and execution brought in early to shape the physical assets that will support scaled operations.

About the Role:

• Provide ground system technician support.  Involves installing testing troubleshooting and maintaining industrial tank farm equipment such as pumps tanks valves and plumbing related to the high pressure and low-pressure helium nitrogen and argon gas/liquid ground infrastructure and other aspects of the site facilities
• Understand and supply industrial packaged gases to production and test customers be knowledgeable about pressurized components and provide end-users insight on how to properly and safely operate pressurized test systems
• Operate and maintain large complicated facility gas hardware high-pressure systems and pumps and other ancillary pressure equipment including pneumatic systems ranging from vacuum 
• Work with leadership to develop and manage Industrial Gases Program.
• Collaborate with design/build engineers to understand systems help influence and execute preventative maintenance plan and ensure system changes are approved and documented
• Make repairs and additions to pre-existing piping infrastructure troubleshoot and fix faulty regulators valves gauges and throughout campus
• Obtain and maintain licenses operator permits or certifications as required
• Follow all company policies regulations and appropriate procedures including quality policies safety policies OSHA EPA NIOSH NFPA ASME NEC etc. standards

What We Do

Relativity Space is on a mission to better connect humanity to space and the universe beyond our planet. Our medium-to-heavy lift reusable rocket Terran R 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.

Why Work With Us

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.
