EHS Engineer

HADRIAN - MANUFACTURING THE FUTURE Hadrian 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 Role We are seeking an EHS Engineer to support safety operations embedded within our special projects research and development teams at Hadrian. This role is central to building safe, scalable processes around novel and emerging manufacturing technologies, from advanced welding and additive manufacturing to casting, forging, and general fabrication. At Hadrian, we are building a culture where zero incidents is the standard, and every team member plays a role in preventing harm through ownership, participation, and continuous improvement. As the EHS Engineer, you will serve as the primary EHS partner to special projects and process development teams, working proactively to identify hazards in new and evolving processes before they reach the production floor. You will develop controls, write procedures, and engage directly with engineers and technicians to ensure that safety is designed in from the start. This role is best suited for someone who is technically curious, hands-on, and comfortable operating at the intersection of engineering and safety. You should be energized by novel process challenges, able to assess risk in ambiguous environments, and skilled at translating complex hazard profiles into clear, practical controls that teams will actually use. What You’ll Do You will serve as the primary EHS resource for Hadrian Factory X and our process development teams, providing proactive EHS support from early-stage experimentation through process scale-up. Key functions will include: - Identify and assess hazards associated with new and emerging manufacturing processes including MIG, TIG, and laser welding, additive manufacturing, casting, forging, and general fabrication - Develop and implement engineering controls, administrative procedures, and PPE programs tailored to the specific hazard profiles of each process - Partner with R&D engineers and technicians to integrate safety by design into new process development workflows and equipment commissioning - Lead or support incident reporting, investigation, and corrective action for safety incidents - Author and maintain safety procedures, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and risk assessments for all R&D processes - Conduct and document hazard assessments (Haz-ops, JHAs, RAs) for new equipment and processes prior to operation - Support and deliver safety training to staff on process-specific hazards and controls - Provide field-driven feedback to improve EHS program usability and effectiveness across the company - Ensure compliance with OSHA, ADEQ, and applicable local requirements, including standards relevant to welding, additive manufacturing, metal casting and forging, and industrial fabrication - Serve as a technical resource for regulatory inspections and agency interactions related to R&D processes What We’re Looking For - 5-10 years of E…
