Relativity Space Tech Stack

Reusable medium-to-heavy lift Terran R rocket and Aeon engine developer

Aviation and Aerospace Component Manufacturing Long Beach, CA 1,001–5,000 employees Founded 2016 Privately Held

Relativity Space is building Terran R, a reusable medium-to-heavy lift launch vehicle, alongside its Aeon-R engine program. The stack pairs PLM and simulation (Siemens NX, Teamcenter, Ansys, Abaqus, FLOW-3D) with factory robotics (KUKA, Fanuc), MES and SCADA, and is adding DMG Mori machining, pointing to a shift from development toward production. Hiring is heavily senior and engineering-led, with manufacturing the second focus, matching pain points around rocket production scale and quality systems.
