About Hadrian

Hadrian is rebuilding America’s industrial strength, rapidly scaling our country’s manufacturing output through advanced software, automation, and human skill. Backed by a16z, Founders Fund and Lux.

About the role

Hadrian's Applications Engineering team develops 0-1 machining solutions to supercharge the throughput and capabilities of our Factory. The team focuses on developing novel solutions for CNC programming, workholding, fixturing, tooling, process control, new materials, and machining capabilities.

What they're looking for

  • A track record of solving difficult manufacturing problems and building technical systems that hold up in production
  • Depth in one or two of these areas, with the judgment to work across the rest: machining, manufacturing engineering, automation, robotics, metrology, simulation, tooling, or software for manufacturing
  • Working knowledge of machining fundamentals, including tooling, workholding, GD&T, inspection, and process validation
  • The ability to trace a problem across process, equipment, software, and operational causes
  • Clear written and verbal communication with machinists, engineers, and factory leadership
More about this role

Hadrian is building autonomous factories to reindustrialize America. By combining AI, advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we help aerospace and defense companies build rockets, satellites, aircraft, ships, and other mission-critical systems up to 10x faster and at significantly lower cost.

Following our $1.37B Series D at a $7.87B valuation, Hadrian is rapidly expanding our manufacturing footprint, launching new capabilities across welding, casting, forging, electronics, additive manufacturing, and more, while scaling our Factory-as-a-Service platform to transform how critical products are built.

Backed by leading investors including JPMorgan Chase, Valor Equity Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, 137 Ventures, Lux Capital, T. Rowe Price, and Morgan Stanley, we’re building the future of American manufacturing—and looking for exceptional people to help make it happen.
