Job description

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:

By collecting and maintaining the business’s financial activities in accordance with US GAAP, we are able to provide accurate and timely financial reports for strategic planning and decision-making purposes to management, investors, and other stakeholders. This empowers the company to make smart business decisions as we pave the way to a multiplanetary future.

About the Role:

Experience managing a population of existing vendors including prioritization of criticality, term re-negotiation, and credit limits is a plus!
Review Terms & Conditions and Credit Policies:
Review and refine terms, conditions, and credit policies (i.e. credit insurance policy) with new and existing vendors to ensure they support the company’s evolving cash flow strategy and risk profile. Work cross-functionally to identify opportunities for renegotiation, standardization, and improved alignment with internal financial goals.
Support Cross-Functional Initiatives:
Collaborate with stakeholders across Supply Chain, Engineering, Accounts Payable, and Finance to drive credit-related initiatives and support scalable procurement operations.
Tackle ad-hoc Special Projects:
Engage in ad hoc initiatives including OKR/metric reporting, systems improvements, accounts receivable/billing, or vendor health analysis, based on evolving business needs.

5+ years of experience in credit analysis or credit risk management
Demonstrated experience creating & owning, or contributing to, credit strategy development
Experience with vendor onboarding, master data governance, and ERP systems (Infor LN, Jira, etc.)
