Hadrian - Manufacturing the Future Hadrian is building autonomous factories that help aerospace and defense companies manufacture rockets, satellites, jets, and ships up to 10x faster and up to 2x cheaper. By combining advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we are reinventing how America produces its most critical parts. We’re accelerating our mission with the launch of Factory 3 in Mesa, Arizona, a 290,000-square-foot facility creating 350 new jobs. We are expanding rapidly to support thousands of future hires, launching Hadrian Maritime to expand into naval production, and introducing a Factory-as-a-Service model that delivers complete systems instead of individual parts. Hadrian is backed by leading investors including T. Rowe Price, Lux Capital, Founders Fund, and Andreessen Horowitz, our fast-growing team is united around reindustrializing American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond. The Role The Manufacturing Engineer, Factory Construction is embedded in the field, driving construction execution with the rigor and ownership mindset of a manufacturing engineer — systematic, schedule-obsessed, and focused on outcomes. This role sits at the intersection of construction management and factory development, ensuring what gets built matches what production actually needs. This role requires a dynamic player who is constantly finding ways to make forward progress through uncertainty and take calculated risks. Ultimately, this role is partnering closely with engineering to intake requirements and translating them to a built reality – on schedule and in budget.
