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.\nFollowing 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.\nBacked 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.\nIf 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.\nThe Role\nHadrian is ramping new welding capability at FX, and this role is central to getting there. As an R&D Welding Technician, you'll build and qualify the weld processes and hardware, qualification test articles and large structural assemblies, that this capability launch depends on, working hands-on with hand welding, orbital tube welding, and robotic welding cells in a fast-moving R&D environment.\nWhat You'll Do\nFabricate and weld qualification test articles and large structural assemblies in support of a new welding capability ramp.\n\nPerform hand welding using both laser and arc processes on first-of-a-kind hardware.\n\nSet up and execute orbital tube welding operations to spec.\n\nOperate and support robotic welding cells, including setup and troubleshooting.\n\nRead and build to engineering drawings, weld symbols, and GD&T, and maintain build documentation to support qualification and traceability.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\nHands-on experience with hand welding, both laser and arc processes.\n\nExperience with orbital tube welding.\n\nExperience operating robotic welding equipment.\n\nAbility to read engineering drawings, weld symbols, and GD&T.\n\nComfort operating in an ambiguous, first-of-a-kind R&D environment rather than a locked production line.\n\nWhat Will Set You Apart\nPrior aerospace or defense welding experience.\n\nAWS D17.1 or NADCAP welding exposure.\n\nExperience supporting weld procedure or process qualification (WPS/PQR).\n\nRobotic weld cell programming or teach-pendant experience.\n\nPrior experience on qualification-article or first-article builds.\n\nBenefits for Full-time Employees\nMedical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees 401k\n\nRelocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need.\n\nFlexible vacation policy\n\nEquity\n\nITAR Requirements\nTo conform to U.S. Government export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen or national, lawful permanent resident, protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
