About the role

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:

- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including operations, program management, and quality to understand requirements and deliver software solutions

- Write clean, well-tested code and participate in code reviews

- Surface technical risks and contribute to architectural discussions

What We’re Looking For

- Current university student pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, with an expected graduation date between December 2027 and June 2028

- Proficiency in one or more programming languages (Python, TypeScript, Go, or similar)

- Familiarity with backend development, APIs, or data engineering

- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work through ambiguous technical challenges

- Clear written and verbal communication

- Strong attention to detail and follow-through

- Excitement for manufacturing, aerospace, defense, or industrial systems
