Hadrian - Manufacturing the Future

Hadrian is building autonomous factories to reindustrialize America. By combining AI, advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we help aerospace and defense companies build rockets, satellites, aircraft, ships, and other mission-critical systems up to 10x faster and at significantly lower cost.

Following our $1.37B Series D at a $7.87B valuation, Hadrian is rapidly expanding our manufacturing footprint, launching new capabilities across welding, casting, forging, electronics, additive manufacturing, and more, while scaling our Factory-as-a-Service platform to transform how critical products are built.

Backed by leading investors including JPMorgan Chase, Valor Equity Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, 137 Ventures, Lux Capital, T. Rowe Price, and Morgan Stanley, we’re building the future of American manufacturing—and looking for exceptional people to help make it happen.

If you’re ready to take on the most challenging and rewarding work of your career while helping create American manufacturing jobs for generations to come, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.

The Role

Hadrian is building autonomous precision manufacturing facilities that enable aerospace and defense companies to produce critical hardware faster and more affordably. Our mission is to support U.S. industrial resilience and national security by reshoring advanced manufacturing and accelerating access to space and defense technologies.

As a Technical Program Manager (TPM), you will play a critical role in ensuring delivery excellence for our customers in the defense and aerospace sectors. Working closely with the CEO, Go-to-Market (GTM) leadership, and engineering teams, you will help define and execute strategies that align manufacturing capabilities with complex customer requirements.

What You’ll Do

• Own customer profit and loss outcomes in collaboration with Account Executives by aligning business strategy, internal capabilities, and customer expectations.
• Lead and coach a cross-functional team of Manufacturing Engineers to ensure timely and high-quality part delivery.
• Act as the primary escalation point for customer issues and operational blockers, coordinating with factory, engineering, and software teams.
• Identify and advocate for new internal capabilities based on recurring customer needs and long‑term automation opportunities.
• Design and implement scalable internal processes, including feedback loops with software teams, to support operational excellence and continuous improvement.

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of experience in technical, commercial, or program management roles in aerospace, defense, or related manufacturing environments.
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
• Proven ability to manage customer relationships, drive P&L results, and lead cross‑functional teams.
• Strong problem‑solving and communication skills, including negotiation and stakeholder engagement.
• Proficiency in relevant tools such as Microsoft Office, CRM platforms, and manufacturing operations software.

What Will Set You Apart

• Experience managing programs for customers with Department of Defense, NASA, or other federal contracts.
• Background in scaling operations or implementing automation in manufacturing environments.
• Familiarity with ERP systems, PLM tools, and supply chain data analytics.
• Prior success in leading customer business reviews and continuous improvement initiatives.

Compensation

For this role, the target salary range is 130,000 - 190,000 (actual range may vary based on experience). This is the lowest to highest salary we reasonably and in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting. We may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range, and the range may be modified in the future. An employee's pay position within the salary range will be based on several factors, including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, performance, and business or organizational needs.

• Relocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need.
• Flexible vacation policy
• Equity
