HADRIAN - MANUFACTURING THE FUTURE Hadrian is building autonomous factories that help aerospace and defense companies manufacture rockets, satellites, jets, and ships up to 10x faster and up to 2x cheaper. By combining advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we are reinventing how America produces its most critical parts. We’re accelerating our mission with the launch of Factory 3 in Mesa, Arizona, a 290,000-square-foot facility creating 350 new jobs. We are expanding rapidly to support thousands of future hires, launching Hadrian Maritime to expand into naval production, and introducing a Factory-as-a-Service model that delivers complete systems instead of individual parts. Hadrian is backed by leading investors including T. Rowe Price, Lux Capital, Founders Fund, and Andreessen Horowitz, our fast-growing team is united around reindustrializing American manufacturing for the 21st century and beyond. The Role The Materials Program Manager is a critical cross-functional role responsible for NPI material planning across our facilities; controlling BOM data, translating production demand into supply signals internally and externally, managing inventory, and working directly with procurement, engineering, and operations teams to ensure material readiness supports customer demand. This role sits at the heart of Hadrian’s supply chain and directly impacts our ability to deliver on time to our customers. This person will be responsible for supporting the prototype, development build and rate ramp phase of a program until the successful transition to sustaining management. What You’ll Do Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to the following: * Lead ownership and governance of critical master data (BOMs, make/buy, item attributes, lead times, planning parameters, and engineering change impacts) to ensure MRP and planning systems reflect the current design, production and supplier plan of record. * Plan, organize, direct and execute material readiness activities across engineering, operations and supply chain to support development through rate production. * Manage the Clear-to-Build (CTB) process internally and with suppliers, providing visibility to supply availability, inventory levels, and risk assessments and mitigation * Ensure supply plans meet production deadlines; proactively identify and mitigate risks to supply continuity. * Coordinate with engineering, operations, and quality teams to manage material change cut-ins, reduce obsolescence, and eliminate quality-driven supply disruptions * Partner with procurement and operations on advanced supply chain strategies including long-term purchasing and strategic safety stock. * Proactively manage inventory to prevent stock-outs and own allocation of constrained supply. * Analyze supply chain data and report on MRP health metrics relative to factory production goals and delivery commitments. * Own the leadership communication on the program to all key stakeholders: program management, operations, engineering & supply chain. * Proactively update operations leadership and engineering on critical supply issues requiring escalation. What We’re Looking For * Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, operations, engineering, or a related field * 3+ years of experience in material program management, material planning, production planning, supply chain management, purchasing, or operations. * Track record supporting material planning for new product introduction (NPI) from prototype through rate production * Experience working within MRP or ERP systems * Strong analytical skills; comfortable working with data to drive supply planning decisions * Excellent written and verbal communication; able to escalate supply risks clearly to cross-functional stakeholders * Detail-oriented, self-motivated, and able to respond quickly in a fast-moving, ever-changing environment What Will Set You Apart * Experience navigating multi-tier BOMs and complex work orders in a high-mix manufacturing environment * Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, macros); SQL or Power BI experience a plus. * Experience in aerospace, defense, or other high-precision, regulated manufacturing environments BENEFITS FOR FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES * Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees * 401k * Relocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need. * Flexible vacation policy * Equity ITAR REQUIREMENTS To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., 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.
