Jonathan Williams
I interned with the team I’m currently on, the stage fluids team, which is an awesome group of people. And it was great to already know most of them when I started full time! The projects that I owned during my internship were more focused on systems and analysis. I used Python and Excel to create tools that made our systems faster and easier to use. One cool thing I worked on was a leak check tool, which empowered technicians to finish leak checks and qualify hardware to the right standard. It was satisfying to come back after my internship and see people using the tool, I created in their PowerPoint slides for data analysis and referencing.
What made it a unique experience for me was the ownership and seat at the table I was given. I got to collaborate with top engineers who respected my opinions and work, and I truly felt like a valued part of the team.
I joined Relativity as an intern and had a great experience, so I decided to become a full-time employee. It’s been over two years since then. In college I had the opportunity to do a couple of aerospace internships, which solidified my interest in the industry. This interest continued to grow when I joined Relativity as an intern and now as a full-time employee.
What made this internship stand out from previous ones was the immediate sense of being part of the team. The projects I worked on felt like real work, not just intern side projects. Unlike other internships where I felt isolated, at Relativity, my work was prominent and important.
Propulsion Manufacturing Engineer 1
I was fortunate to be matched with Relativity in 2022 as part of the Matthew Isakowitz Fellowship Program. Relativity’s long-term mission of building the manufacturing infrastructure needed for Mars colonization deeply interested me.
During my summer 2022 internship, I worked on the Structures Manufacturing team for the Terran 1 vehicle. I was responsible for integrating the downcomer assembly into the rocket’s first stage. I returned in the summer of 2023 as an intern on the Valves Manufacturing team, where I helped refine and accelerate the production process for valves in the Terran R vehicle. This past March, I joined the company full-time as a Manufacturing Engineer working on Aeon R’s oxygen turbopump.
My transition from intern to full-time employee was smooth and had a quick turnaround, thanks to the support of my team. My biggest advice would be to be persistent. The simple act of showing up repeatedly, even in the face of failure or rejection, will be your greatest strength. Prior to getting my internship at Relativity, I interviewed with them three separate times since I was a sophomore in college.
