Description	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 recently raised $260 million dollar Series C to accelerate this mission. We are excited to launch a new Factory in Mesa Arizona a 270000-square-foot facility that will create 350 new jobs immediately. We are opening a new headquarters to support thousands of future hires launching Hadrian Maritime to serve the naval production and introducing a Factory-as-a-Service model that delivers complete systems instead of individual parts. Hadrian collaborates with startups Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers and major defense contractors across aerospace shipbuilding and aviation to scale production reduce costs and expedite delivery on mission-critical programs. We are backed by leading investors including Lux Capital Founders Fund and Andreessen Horowitz. Our fast-growing team is united by a shared mission to reindustrialize American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond! The Role Hadrian is building autonomous factories to support the defense industrial base. As we scale delivery across programs in aerospace national security and advanced manufacturing we’re looking for program managers to lead customer-facing execution and manage infrastructure delivery across new and existing factory footprints. This is a customer-facing execution role focused on driving outcomes across technical complex cross-functional programs. You’ll spend your time communicating with stakeholders managing timelines coordinating delivery and maintaining accountability across both internal and external teams. The strongest candidates will bring experience in high-complexity customer-facing environments whether from management consulting industrial programs or defense delivery. They should have a track record of owning execution and leading from the front in ambiguous or high-stakes settings. We are seeking multiple candidates at varying levels of experience and seniority to support parallel programs and delivery surfaces. This role offers the opportunity to grow into program leadership across $100M+ delivery surfaces spanning new factory sites high-priority federal programs and scaled technical infrastructure.
