Resumo da oferta

Hadrian in Torrance, CA is seeking an experienced automation engineer to design, deploy, and sustain AM cell automation for powder handling and post-processing. You will own the safety architecture and coordinate with the Machine Controls & Data Integration Engineer to ensure the cell safety state is integrated with the platform.

Responsibilities include FAT/SAT testing, improving throughput, and enabling redeployment of solutions to multiple Hadrian sites while maintaining safety and compliance

Qualificações

• Bachelor’s degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field.
• 4+ years designing, deploying, and sustaining automation solutions in production manufacturing environments.
• Experience with industrial robotics, material handling, and machine tending automation.
• Ability to work on site full time in Torrance, CA and travel up to 25%.

Responsabilidades

• Cell Automation Design and Commissioning for AM workflows — powder handling and transport, build plate and build unit exchange, depowdering, part removal, and downstream logistics into post-processing
• Cell Safety Architecture: Own the safety architecture for AM cell automation — risk assessment, guarding, presence sensing, emergency stop and interlock logic — and validate it against aerospace and defense production requirements. Coordinate with the Machine Controls & Data Integration Engineer so cell safety state is visible to the machine and platform layer
• Powder and Combustible Dust Safety: Engineer automation around powder safely — combustible dust controls per NFPA 484, inert gas handling, and grounding and bonding practice — in coordination with site EHS and the Materials and Process team
• Automation Interface Requirements: Define automation interface requirements — mechanical, electrical, and data — and work with the Machine Controls & Data Integration Engineer so cell automation is represented in OPUS
• Automation Team Partnership: Partner with the Hadrian Automation team on interfaces, handoffs, and the joint AM cell automation roadmap, integrating proven vendor equipment in preference to custom builds wherever it fits
• Acceptance Testing: Execute Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and Site Acceptance Test (SAT) for automation equipment, and define performance acceptance criteria tied to cycle time, throughput, and reliability rather than function alone
• Reliability and Maintenance: Own reliability and maintenance programs for automation systems — preventive maintenance schedules, spares strategy, and root cause analysis driven to verified closure
• Throughput and Bottleneck Elimination: Identify and eliminate automation bottlenecks to improve build throughput, changeover time, and machine utilization, using cycle time and utilization data from the manufacturing data infrastructure
• Design for Redeployment: Document and standardize cell automation so solutions transfer to additional Hadrian factories without being re-engineered from scratch
