International Additive Manufacturing Jobs (NOW HIRING)

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.

Within Additive Manufacturing, we're developing and qualifying materials and processes across LPBF, DED, and polymer applications. We own the materials engineering work that makes that possible, and we're looking for someone ready to be challenged and take on highly technical, independent work with the resources to push for innovation in the additive industry. You'll be relied on as the go to technical resource on materials for additive.

The Role

• Lead materials development and qualification across LPBF, DED, and polymer additive processes.

• Work closely with process and applications engineers to develop parameters for various material and equipment configurations.

• Design and execute DOEs, test plans, and statistical data analysis to develop material properties.

• Develop materials allowables, author specifications, and supporting qualification documentation.

• Discover, evaluate, and implement novel materials and technologies, owning everything from initial selection through parameter development, validation, and implementation.

• Work cross functionally with quality, supply chain, designers, and applications engineers.

What We're Looking For

• Master's degree in Materials Science, Welding Engineering, Metallurgy, or a related engineering discipline.

• 4+ years in a materials and processes engineering role developing and qualifying additive manufacturing processes for metal alloys, with a strong focus on laser powder bed fusion.

• Strong working knowledge of alloy types common to aerospace and extreme environments, such as nickel based, copper, aluminum, and stainless.

• Familiarity with post processing and heat treatments for these alloy types.

• Background performing material testing, metallurgical analysis, or failure investigations in a production or laboratory setting.

• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, and material requirements, and apply them within a manufacturing environment.

What Will Set You Apart

• An advanced degree relevant to the field.

• Background in aerospace, aviation, defense, energy, or similar industries with high specification requirements.

• Familiarity with industry specialized material standards, certification requirements, or quality systems such as NADCAP, AMS7000 series, AS9100, and relevant ASTM/AMS additive manufacturing specifications.

• Familiarity with fracture control classification of components and associated qualification requirements.

• Background across adjacent metal processes, such as casting, forging, and brazing.

• Experience with in-situ process monitoring for laser powder bed fusion.

• Knowledge of statistical methods for generating test data and building material allowables, informed by frameworks such as MMPDS.

• Prior support of production scale up in high-rate manufacturing environments.

• Ability to lead root cause investigations using fractography, metallography, and mechanical testing.
