At Relativity Space, we have two audacious goals: to build the next great commercial launch company with Terran R and to become America's leading force in additive manufacturing innovation. Both contribute to our long-term vision of creating humanity’s industrial base on Mars, paving the way for interplanetary life to expand the possibilities of the human experience. This journey begins right here on Earth – where we design, build, and fly rockets to deliver customer payloads to orbit. Terran R, our medium-to-heavy lift reusable rocket, fulfills the growing demand for launch capacity, thanks to our iterative approach that accelerates design, testing, and development while minimizing costs. While our groundbreaking research and development in 3D printing pushes the boundaries of large-scale additive manufacturing.

Your journey with us is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to shape the future of aerospace technology, additive manufacturing, and the human experience alongside a community of passionate, creative individuals. Join us on this extraordinary journey, as we work together to transform our vision into reality.

About the Team:

Our People team is responsible for supporting Relativity’s best-in-class team, as well as strategically managing our hiring pipelines to help us find the very best to join our company. On this team, you are given the opportunity to work across many teams and projects, while also helping to set the tone for Relativity’s company values and culture. In addition to recruiting, you will also support employer brand efforts, as well as networking events, career fairs and more.

As a Staff Technical Sourcer, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our technical talent acquisition strategy, driving sourcing excellence for high-priority and hard-to-fill positions. This is a strategic and hands-on role that goes beyond pipeline generation—you’ll act as a thought leader and trusted advisor across talent acquisition and hiring teams, leveraging your market expertise and data-driven insights to influence sourcing direction and hiring outcomes. You will also coach and empower other sourcers, champion sourcing best practices, and partner cross-functionally to anticipate future talent needs.

This is a fully remote position, offering flexibility and autonomy in how you work.

About the Role:

  • Own and execute end-to-end sourcing strategies for senior-level and niche technical roles across engineering and product teams
  • Partner closely with recruiters, hiring managers, and business leaders to deeply understand hiring needs and develop aligned sourcing approaches
  • Use Greenhouse, Gem, and LinkedIn to build, manage, and engage high-quality pipelines of passive talent
  • Drive sourcing innovation by identifying new tools, technologies, and approaches to improve efficiency and quality of hires
  • Provide strategic market intelligence, including talent availability, competitor insights, and compensation trends, to influence hiring decisions

About You:

  • 8+ years of technical sourcing or full-cycle recruiting experience in hardware, preferably within aerospace or high-growth tech environments
  • Demonstrated success sourcing for a wide range of technical roles, including leadership and specialized positions along with strong knowledge of technical domains, industry trends, and competitive landscape
  • Deep expertise with modern sourcing tools and techniques, including Boolean search, CRM/ATS platforms (e.g., Greenhouse), and talent mapping tools
  • Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders and engage high-caliber talent
  • Proven track record of mentoring and developing sourcing peers; strong collaborator who uplifts others
  • Strategic mindset with a passion for continuous improvement and innovation in sourcing practices

Nice to haves but not required:

  • Experience sourcing niche roles in hardware engineering and in a hyper growth environment
  • Ability to switch swiftly between different engineering departments

At Relativity Space, we are committed to transparency and fairness in our compensation practices. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience, qualifications, and other job-related factors.
