Job summary

Hadrian is hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to own the ML lifecycle for vision‑language models that interpret manufacturing drawings and design intent. You’ll build systems that understand multimodal data in a manufacturing context and deploy models to support automated DFMs.

Join a fast‑growing team building autonomous factories for aerospace and defense, with opportunities to shape core AI platform roadmaps and work across high‑impact projects in a frontier industry.

Qualifications

• 5–8 years of professional deep learning experience, with at least 2 years on multimodal models leveraging image and text modalities.
• Strong Python and PyTorch fluency: written custom training loops, loss functions, and data loaders from scratch when needed.
• Production deployment ownership: shipped models to production and been responsible for endpoints and model health.

Responsibilities

• Research, develop, and deploy multimodal models that understand content from manufacturing documentation end‑to‑end.
• Work alongside the core-engineering team to build and maintain annotation tooling, implement active learning loops, and engineer synthetic data augmentation strategies.
• Develop evaluation frameworks that quantify system behavior and user impact, extending beyond traditional benchmark metrics.
• Collaborate with the other members of the machine learning team to set the technical and product roadmaps for the AI platform.
• Burn down the long tail, as every percentage point of accuracy maps to man‑years of time savings at our scale.
