Engineering Manager, Fullstack

Hadrian - Manufacturing the FutureHadrian 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 RoleFlow is Hadrian's Factory Operation System: a distributed, mission-critical software platform that coordinates how work is planned, executed, measured, and improved across many factories.Flow is an interconnected platform of services, applications, data pipelines, and operational workflows that must evolve quickly without sacrificing reliability.This role leads engineering for one or more business domains: building a team that ships product, owns its systems in production, and works closely with stakeholders across the company.Factory Core is the part of Flow that runs the physical factory: the Manufacturing Execution System, Shop Floor experience, Inventory, and Warehouse Management. Every part Hadrian makes, moves, or ships passes through these systems, and operators on the floor depend on them every shift. The Factory Core team is at the center of scaling Hadrian's throughput for existing and new factories.You do not need aerospace, defense, or manufacturing experience to excel in this role.What You'll DoOwn one or more business domains end-to-end, including product outcomes, engineering execution, and ongoing operational health.Hire, grow, and retain a strong team. Set a clear bar, develop careers, and address performance directly.Stay hands-on as a player-coach. Drive architecture and design reviews, ship code on real roadmap work, and jump into production incidents with the team.Partner with Product, Design, and Operations to shape the roadmap and turn business priorities into sequenced, shipped work.Continuously improve the developer lifecycle your team operates in: planning, design, code review, testing, deployment, on-call, and incident response.What We're Looking For2-5+ years of engineering management experience leading product engineering teams in production, with a strong full-stack engineering background before that.A history of owning business-critical product domains, including technical strategy, prioritization, delivery, and operational responsibility.Experience hiring, growing, and retaining strong engineers, and running a healthy team.Real product and customer instinct. You understand the product, the user, and the business, and you push your team toward the right outcomes, not just shipped work.A clear point of view on the developer lifecycle (planning, design, build, ship, operate) and how to make each phase better.Systems thinking: you understand how services, data flows, and team boundaries interact, and use that to prevent bottlenecks and scaling issues before they happen.Experience leading or contributing to distributed systems in production, ideally across multiple sites, environments, or regions.Technical credibility. You can read, review, and write production code, lead architecture discussions, and earn the trust of senior engineers.Strong communication. You can align engineers, product partners, operators, and leadership, drive decisions, and keep people informed.Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment with high stakes and short iteration cycles.CompensationFor this role, the target salary range is $220,000 - $280,000(actual range may vary based on experience).This is the lowest to highest salary we reasonably and in good faith believe we would pay for this role at the time of this posting.
