Job description

Overview

Hadrian is building autonomous factories that help aerospace and defense companies manufacture rockets, satellites, jets, and ships faster and cheaper. By combining advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, Hadrian reinvents how America produces its most critical parts. We are launching Factory 3 in Mesa, Arizona, a 290,000-square-foot facility creating 350 new jobs, with plans to support thousands of future hires and new initiatives in naval production and Factory-as-a-Service models.

Hadrian is backed by leading investors and is focused on reindustrializing American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond.

The Role

Hadrian is building the most advanced manufacturing platform in the world. Workforce Development is responsible for ensuring our people can keep pace with it by training, certifying, and preparing the workforce across factory locations. We are seeking a Training Operations Manager to lead that execution. This role is for someone who understands operational leadership, can build and maintain a training program across multiple factory locations, and is energized by implementing a bold workforce development strategy on the floor every day.

You will lead the Training Operations team, a group of Training Leads and Specialists across Hadrian0s active factory locations, owning everything from the training curriculum and schedule to certification outcomes and production readiness.

What You0ll Do

• Lead the Training Operations Team: Directly manage Training Leads and Training Specialists across multiple factory locations, developing your team0s capability, setting a high bar for performance, and building a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
• Build and Maintain the Training Curriculum and Schedule: Lead the team in developing and owning a comprehensive training schedule covering all stations, new hire ramp, and recertification cycles. Ensure delivery is tracked against the schedule and that gaps or risks are identified and addressed proactively.
• Own Training Operations: Take full ownership of Machining training program delivery and technician certification across all active factory locations, maintaining a consistently high standard of quality and consistency.
• Drive Production Readiness: Partner closely with factory Operations teams to ensure the workforce is trained, certified, and production-ready in alignment with ramp schedules and headcount growth.
• Translate Strategy to Execution: Ensure standards, documentation, and systems built by Workforce Development are understood, applied correctly, and continuously improved by your team on the floor.
• Maintain the Feedback Loop: Proactively surface gaps in training content, documentation accuracy, and evaluation standards back to Workforce Systems before they become production problems.
• Plan Ahead: Forecast Training Specialist headcount needs based on factory growth, ensuring the training team is never behind production demand.
• Support Audit Readiness: Ensure training records, certification data, and program execution meet AS9100 standards and are consistently ready for internal and external audits.

What We0re Looking For

• People leadership: proven experience managing teams across multiple locations in a fast-paced, hands-on environment. You develop people, hold a high bar, and create accountability without micromanaging.
• Operational execution: you understand what great execution looks like at the floor level. You can take a strategy and break it down into clear processes, schedules, and ownership that a team can actually run.
• Coordination and program management: you can manage multiple workstreams across sites simultaneously, keep stakeholders aligned, and close open loops without dropping them.
• Communication: you communicate clearly up, down, and across the org. You can represent training needs to factory leadership and translate operational realities back to Workforce Development.
• Ownership mentality: you take problems all the way to resolution. You do not wait to be told what to do and you do not leave things half finished.
• Adaptability: Hadrian is growing fast. The tools, capabilities, and expectations will evolve. You are energized by that, not unsettled by it.

What Will Set You Apart

• Multi-site people management experience in a high-volume, coordination-heavy environment
• Background in operations, workforce development, or service management in manufacturing, logistics, hospitality, aviation, or a similar industry
• Experience building or significantly growing a training program rather than just maintaining one
• Familiarity with certification frameworks, skills matrices, or structured competency systems
• Comfort working in an environment where the playbook is still being written
• Military background with a training or standardization specialty

Benefits

• Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees
• 401k
• Relocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need.
• Flexible vacation policy
