Job summary

Hadrian is seeking a hands-on qualification engineer to take additive manufacturing systems from installed equipment to qualified, production-released capability.

You will author and execute IQ/OQ protocols for metal and polymer AM systems, support PQ with Materials & Process and Application Engineering, and build defensible data baselines for Army, Navy, and aerospace prime customers, including ITAR compliance.

Qualifications

• Direct experience qualifying metal AM equipment to AMS7032, ISO/ASTM TS 52930, ISO/ASTM 52920, or NIAR/NCAMP and US Navy AM requirements.
• Experience supporting PQ alongside materials, process, or application engineering teams.
• Experience measuring as-built additive surfaces and performing scan-to-CAD comparison.
• Defense depot, government-owned facility, or A&D production environment background; Nadcap AC7110/14 or AS9100 experience.
• Familiarity with government part qualification pathways — Army/TACOM or DLA source approval, first article testing, TDP development per MIL-STD-31000.
• Experience standing up qualification from scratch at a new site rather than inheriting a mature system.

Responsibilities

• Qualification Execution and Ownership: Author, execute, and close out IQ and OQ protocols with traceability from installation to production release.
• Support PQ by providing the qualified equipment baseline, protocol structure, and machine capability data for engineering changes.
• Own the qualification impact assessment for every engineering change.
• Commissioning, FAT, and SAT: Execute the FAT and SAT playbook, coordinate OEM field engineers, resolve open items before production release.
• Software and Firmware Qualification: Qualify the AM software toolchain, including version control, change management, and regression testing.
• Metal and Polymer Platform Qualification: Qualify metal and polymer platforms, adapting protocols to subsystems and acceptance criteria.
