California, USA Posted on Mar 6, 2026 Apply now 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.
Valued at $1.6B, 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 factories-as-a-service team analyzes our current customers' production and supply chain challenges, builds data-driven presentations, designs and scopes factories of the future, and assists the Federal and Strategic sales team in forming long-term partnerships with the DOD, Primes, and other manufacturers.
This team is responsible for scoping, design, cost, schedule, and technology analysis, as well as proposals for major programs and manufacturing transformations across all manufacturing methods and domains.
With several major programs in flight, we are hiring rapidly for this team that will effectively analyze, design, scope, plan, and handover (or join) execution of large-scale manufacturing efforts.
Hadrian is seeking a Process Engineer, Casting to join our Scoping & Special Projects team. This role is ideal for an engineer with deep casting expertise and a systems mindset. You will lead the technical decomposition of complex customer requirements into scalable factory cell designs, with a focus on sand and investment casting.
Analyze Bills of Materials (BOMs), CAD models, and technical drawings to classify casting parts by process complexity, alloy type, size, and risk. Develop first-principles cycle-time models using simulation data, standard routings, and historical performance metrics. Define and document end-to-end casting process flows, including melt preparation, mold/core fabrication, pouring, and post-processing. Translate technical scoping outputs into capital and operational requirements for factory implementation (equipment, staffing, takt planning). Collaborate cross-functionally with quality and inspection teams to define inspection strategies, CTQ checkpoints, and measurement system analysis plans.
5+ years of experience in process engineering within sand or investment casting environments, including melt and mold/core operations. Proficiency with casting simulation tools (e.g., MAGMASOFT, ProCAST) and experience validating simulation outcomes against real-world results. Strong understanding of quality systems, including authorship of PFMEAs and control plans; experience executing AS9102-compliant First Article Inspections (FAIs). Familiarity with sand testing methods (e.g., GFN, permeability, moisture, compactability) and binder ratio control protocols.
Experience designing greenfield manufacturing cells or establishing lab infrastructure for heat treatment or sand testing. Knowledge of aerospace and defense casting standards (e.g., NADCAP, ASTM specifications, traceability requirements). Familiarity with casting automation technologies and non-destructive testing (e.g., PT, RT, UT) methods. Exposure to regulated manufacturing or reporting frameworks (e.g., PPAP, EVMS, IPMDAR).
Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees 401k Relocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need. Flexible vacation policy
