Hadrian - Manufacturing the Future Hadrian is building autonomous factories that help aerospace and defense companies manufacture rockets, satellites, jets, and ships up to 10x faster and up to 2x cheaper. By combining advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we are reinventing how America produces its most critical parts. Valued at $1.6B, we’re accelerating our mission with the launch of Factory 3 in Mesa, Arizona, a 290,000-square-foot facility creating 350 new jobs. We are expanding rapidly to support thousands of future hires, launching Hadrian Maritime to expand into naval production, and introducing a Factory-as-a-Service model that delivers complete systems instead of individual parts. Hadrian is backed by leading investors including T. Rowe Price, Lux Capital, Founders Fund, and Andreessen Horowitz, our fast-growing team is united around reindustrializing American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond. The Role Hadrian’s Robotics team builds hardware and software that powers next-generation manufacturing. We are looking for a Robot Manipulation R&D Engineer to lead the design, development, and deployment of intelligent automation systems for manufacturing environments. Our mission is to scale Hadrian’s core machining business across multiple factories in the U.S. by building robotic systems that operators, technicians, and systems depend on every day.

This role is ideal for engineers passionate about pushing the boundaries of robotic dexterity, perception, and autonomy in real-world industrial applications. What You’ll Do Develop novel algorithms and system architectures for robotic manipulation, grasping, and assembly in unstructured manufacturing environments. Design and implement end-to-end manipulation pipelines integrating perception (e.g., 3D vision), planning, and control. Collaborate with mechanical engineers to prototype and iterate on custom end-effectors, sensor mounts, and robotic tooling. Collaborate with stakeholders to collect, document, and translate operational needs into detailed technical requirements and interface specifications. Support team growth by contributing to hiring, mentoring junior engineers, and establishing technical best practices and workflows. What We’re Looking For M.S. or Ph.D. in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field with 3+ years of hands-on experience in robotic manipulation, control systems, or autonomous systems development. Strong proficiency in C++ or Python. Proven experience with motion planning, kinematics, and control of robotic arms Deep understanding of robot dynamics, force control, and grasp planning. Experience with simulation environment and hardware deployment. Experience leading cross-disciplinary teams and full product lifecycle ownership. Excellent communication and documentation abilities. Passionate about advancing manufacturing automation through robotics innovation.
