Relativity Space is building rockets to serve today's needs and tomorrow's breakthroughs. The Terrestrial Software team is building the foundation for an automated rocket factory and integrated launch platform to automate and streamline workflows across the entire lifecycle of Terran R.
Requirements
- 8-12+ years of product management experience, preferably in manufacturing software or MES.
- 3+ years of direct, hands-on MES experience, including configuring, enhancing, or integrating systems like Manufacturo or similar platforms
- Deep understanding of manufacturing processes production, quality, traceability, OEE, compliance.
- Familiarity with system integration (ERP, PLM, QMS)
- Proven ability to craft and execute product vision, roadmap, requirements, user stories, and releases.
Responsibilities
- Define product vision and strategic roadmap for MES enhancements and in‑house modules.
- Balance deliverables between off‑the‑shelf functionality and custom software features, ensuring seamless integration and scalability.
- Own end‑to‑end delivery of MES-related features from concept through requirements, development, testing, implementation, and post‑launch support.
- Ensure alignment with manufacturing workflows, regulatory needs, data integrity, and system performance.
- Collaborate with engineering to integrate MES with ERP, PLM, QMS, automation systems, and in‑house modules.
- Explore and track advanced technologies (IIoT, dashboards, analytics, Industry 4.0 approaches) for future enhancements.
- Define key performance indicators (e.g., OEE improvements, downtime reduction, traceability metrics, user adoption rates).
Other
- Engage with manufacturing leaders, operations staff, IT, and engineering to understand operational challenges, needs, and priorities.
- Translate insights into clear product requirements, prioritize backlogs, and establish success criteria.
- Establish feedback loops, monitor product performance, and iterate based on manufacturing and user insights.
- Drive adoption across multiple sites or lines create documentation, conduct training, and champion change management efforts.
- Excellent cross-functional leadership working with manufacturing, engineering, IT, quality, and executive stakeholders.
