About the job
Join Hadrian in Shaping the Future of Manufacturing!
At Hadrian, we are revolutionizing the aerospace and defense industries by creating autonomous factories that manufacture rockets, satellites, jets, and ships at unprecedented speeds and costs. Our innovative blend of advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing is transforming how America produces its most vital components.
With the recent launch of Factory 3 in Mesa, Arizona, a state-of-the-art 290,000-square-foot facility generating 350 new jobs, we are on a rapid growth trajectory. Our expansion includes the introduction of Hadrian Maritime for naval production and a Factory-as-a-Service model that provides complete systems rather than just individual parts.
Supported by top-tier investors such as T. Rowe Price, Lux Capital, Founders Fund, and Andreessen Horowitz, our dynamic team is dedicated to reindustrializing American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond.
Your Role
As a Test Automation Engineer, you will take charge of the entire test engineering process for Special Projects hardware from initial development through production. You will determine testing parameters, methodologies, and how test data informs decisions across design, supplier quality, manufacturing, and operations.
This hands-on role requires you to build test stations, fixtures, harnesses, instrumentation racks, automated sequences, data pipelines, and operator workflows for various testing phases including incoming component tests, development tests, qualification/reliability tests, in-process checks, and end-of-line acceptance.
We seek an engineer who can comprehensively tackle the entire testing challenge, covering measurement design, ATE/fixture architecture, test software, limits-as-data, MSA/gauge R&R, root cause analysis, station commissioning, and production handoff.
Your Responsibilities
Define and manage the test architecture encompassing incoming inspection, bench bring-up, in-process checks, qualification/reliability, and end-of-line acceptance, including measurement design, ATE/fixture architecture, limits, and production handoff.
Design and construct production-grade test fixtures, harnesses, load banks, safety interlocks, and instrumentation racks; integrate various instruments including DMMs, oscilloscopes, SMUs, electronic loads, programmable power supplies, hipot/insulation testers, LCR meters, DAQ, and machine-vision systems.
Maintain and improve automated testing systems to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
