Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The Process Qualification Engineer will own and execute first article inspection plans and define control plans for additive manufacturing processes. They will also lead NDE development and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure specification compliance and quality system integration.
Candidates must hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in an engineering or materials science discipline. A minimum of 5 years of experience in quality, qualification, or NDE roles within a manufacturing environment is required.
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.
Within Additive Manufacturing, you'll be the owner for quality and qualification. Qualification has long been one of the biggest hurdles standing in the way of additive being used at scale, and this role is full of opportunities to rethink how it's done and change the way qualification works for this industry going forward. This role is for someone ready to take on highly technical, independent work and be the backbone of how we prove out our processes and hardware.
Own and execute all first article inspection plans for additive hardware, along with qualification validation and implementation.
Define control plans and ensure specification compliance across powder, build, and post processing steps.
Support root cause analysis and corrective action for additive builds and hardware issues as they arise.
Act as the primary NDE owner for all additive processes, leading development of new inspection methods and techniques as our capabilities grow.
Partner with quality and NDE to define inspection plans, acceptance criteria, and sampling strategies, driving measurement system analysis and validation of inspection methods as needed.
Oversee quality for the team, including writing process control documents, and work with company quality executives to help integrate additive manufacturing into a broader, successful quality system.
Serve as the team's point of contact for quality and supply chain, including working with external vendors on special process control, qualification, and continuous improvement across powder supply, post processing, coatings, and inspection services.
Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related discipline.
5+ years of experience in a quality, qualification, or NDE focused role within manufacturing, with additive manufacturing experience strongly preferred.
Hands on experience developing and executing first article inspection plans and qualification packages.
Working knowledge of NDE methods such as CT, X-ray, penetrant, and ultrasonic inspection, including how to validate and apply them to additive hardware.
Experience writing process control documentation and working cross functionally.
Background managing supplier or vendor quality relationships, particularly for powder, post processing, or coatings.
Familiarity with statistical sampling and measurement system analysis methodology.
Experience supporting production scale up or new process introduction in a high rate manufacturing environment.
Background in aerospace, aviation, defense, energy, or similar industries with high specification requirements.
Familiarity with industry specialized material standards, certification requirements, or quality systems such as NADCAP, AMS7000 series, AS9100, and relevant ASTM/AMS additive manufacturing specifications.
Familiarity with fracture control classification of components and associated qualification requirements.
For this role, the target salary range is $135,000 - $200,000 (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. We may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range, and the range may be modified in the future. An employee's pay position within the salary range will be based on several factors, including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, performance, and business or organizational needs.
