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 Factory Construction Manager is the field-based owner of construction execution — the person on the ground making sure our factories get built on schedule, on budget, and to the quality standard our manufacturing operations demand. This role sits at the center of factory development, translating the project plan into daily forward progress and holding the field accountable to it. As we scale our manufacturing footprint, the pace and complexity of construction only increases; this role is what keeps that momentum from slipping. It requires someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-consequence environment, who runs toward problems rather than around them, and who treats the schedule as a commitment rather than a suggestion.

You will serve as the day-to-day owner's representative on active construction sites, working with project teams to drive progress against the schedule and customer milestones while holding general contractors and subcontractors accountable to safety, quality, and sequencing. You'll lead weekly coordination meetings to keep contractors aligned to the plan, track production and quantities in the field to catch schedule and budget drift early and mitigate any potential delays. You will write daily reports that give the broader project team clear visibility into progress and critical issues. Working cross-functionally with the project team, you'll support project planning sessions, validate contractor invoicing, and champion a strong safety and quality culture across every phase of the build. Ultimately, you own what gets built in the field — and you make sure it matches what the project promised.
