Where We Are
We operate multiple offices, factories, test, and launch sites throughout the United States and New Zealand. Explore our locations and find your place in space.
California is home to Rocket Lab’s headquarters, and where we support rocket propulsion design, engineering, and manufacture of the engines for our Electron and Neutron launch vehicles. Rocket Lab HQ is also home to our spacecraft assembly, test, and integration operations.
View JobsAlbuquerque is the location of our space solar cell production site, where solar panels and solar arrays are built and tested before integration to Earth orbit and deep-space spacecraft.
View JobsOur newest location, we’ve introduced a Space Structures Complex in Middle River where we’re developing and building carbon composite spacecraft structures and components, and launch vehicle structures for our Neutron rocket.
View JobsRocket Lab’s Colorado office develops our ever-evolving space software products that contribute to flight software, mission simulation, spacecraft guidance, navigation, and control, and mission design.
View JobsMaryland is home to our production of satellite separation systems, mechanical products which have supported the success of satellite missions for more than 20 years.
View JobsOur engine test site for our Neutron rocket is located at the historic Stennis Space Center in Hancock County, Mississippi. It’s here where we’ll conduct hot fires and key engine component tests for our Archimedes engine.
Within the NASA Wallops Flight Facility on Wallops Island, Virginia is Rocket Lab Launch Complex 2, the home of Electron launches, and Rocket Lab Launch Complex 3, which will be the location of our reusable rocket Neutron’s launches and landings after returning from space.
View JobsRocket Lab’s Washington D.C. office supports our government relations by engaging with federal, state, local, and international policymakers and regulators on behalf of Rocket Lab.
View JobsLocated in Toronto, Canada, our satellite components designed, tested, and made here contribute to our space systems program across the world.
View JobsRocket Lab’s Auckland, New Zealand location manufactures, assembles, and prepares our Electron rocket for launch. Our global Mission Control Center is located here alongside operations for our space systems programs and satellite components production.
