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

As a Security Engineer at Hadrian, you’ll shape the security of our platform as we expand to serve external customers and partners. You’ll drive the transition to Factory-as-a-Service, with identity, multi-tenancy, and data boundaries at the core. This is a full-stack role—spanning application code, cloud, Kubernetes, identity management, and cutting-edge operational technology on the factory floor.

What they're looking for

  • 4+ years in security engineering, software engineering, or infrastructure/platform engineering, with real hands-on security ownership somewhere in there
  • Fluency with agentic systems . Familiarity with agentic loops and task delegation — building with or on LLM agents and automation
  • You move fast and learn faster . You take an under-specified mission, decide where to start, make sound calls under uncertainty, and ramp on something unfamiliar quickly
  • You weigh risk against innovation — and say so. You make the risk-aversion versus innovation trade-off explicit on real decisions, so the business chooses deliberately rather than defaulting to "no."
  • A track record of deleting controls or process — retiring the checks that shouldn't exist and proving the automated replacement held
  • Genuine breadth and curiosity . You move between application security, cloud and Kubernetes security, identity/authorization, and networking — and you actively want to understand how a new layer works, down to the details
