By combining advanced software, robotics, and full-stack manufacturing, we are reinventing how America produces its most critical parts.\r\nWe'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.\r\nHadrian 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.\r\nThe RoleAs a CAM Programmer, you will have direct responsibility for producing CAM packages and CNC Programs for highly complex, close-tolerance components. You will play a critical role within the company, sitting at the intersection of manufacturing and software R&D. This role is instrumental in developing and testing the technologies that will move the manufacturing industry forward and truly shape the future of manufacturing.\r\nResponsibilities include generating precise CNC programs that align with our programming standards, directly contributing to the success of your teammates within CAM Operations by producing highly reliable, well-executed CAM files and efficient programs at a rapid pace.\r\nThe ideal candidate will possess an analytical mindset, viewing challenges as opportunities for improvement and innovation. They will systematically address and solve these challenges while contributing to Hadrian's knowledge base, covering tooling, application processes, workholding design, and manufacturing methodologies. Additionally, they should enrich our culture through proactive communication, teamwork, and carry themselves with the utmost integrity.\r\nWhat You'll DoCAM Program and Component Process Deployment:\r\nGenerate CAM files with detailed manufacturing intent, strictly adhering to Hadrian's design principles\r\nCraft clear, comprehensive work instruction documents suitable for all skill levels, specifically designed to empower individuals with minimal experience in machine tool setups to achieve success.\r\nInternal Product Development:\r\nBe flexible working with ever-changing technology\r\nImprove internal automation software by providing feedback, identifying application process gaps, trends, and problems.\r\nReport factory bugs and general workflow issues as you encounter them, placing the utmost importance on promptly communicating issues or challenges that arise daily. No matter how small they are perceived to be.\r\nCAM Process Optimization through Internal Feedback Integration:\r\nActively seek out and incorporate feedback from team members and technical staff to boost productivity and refine machining programs and overall CAM process procedures.\r\nCreate repeatable output across the production of hundreds of units, utilizing partner teams' feedback in the pursuit of continuous improvement opportunities.\r\nRigorously identify gaps and communicate these findings to CAM Process Designers for integration or revision\r\nFixture Design and CAD Modeling:\r\nDesign and model 3D fixtures conforming to Hadrian's fixture design standards with the Siemens NX CAD platform. Embrace advanced fixture design processes (e.g., 3-2-1 locating, Poka-Yoke error-proofing, equation-driven design) for creating efficient and robust fixtures.\r\nAdhere to industry-standard CAD design-tree practices and follow internally developed workflows\r\nSoftware Proficiency:\r\nOperate efficiently within the hyperMILL and NX environments, utilizing best practices while fully leveraging Hadrian's automation suite for effective design and program creation.\r\nMaximize the use of Hadrian's Co-Pilot CAM integration throughout the CAM Programming process, fully leveraging it on a daily basis.\r\nEffectively utilize a variety of communication tools such as email, messaging applications, Microsoft Office suite, etc.\r\nWhat We're Looking ForProven experience in programming 3 and/or 5-axis CNC machine tools within a production environment of high-tolerance precision components.\r\nPrior involvement in the aerospace sector or similar industries with stringent requirements.\r\nKnowledge of safety procedures, quality standards, and tool selection is essential.\r\nAverage understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerances (GD&T).\r\nCapability to interpret data (such as CMM reports), identify trends, or tools needed to gather understanding of dimensional instability, and apply insights to enhance the manufacturing process.\r\nDemonstrated ability and willingness to try new things, adopt new approaches to the industry, and have the vision and discipline necessary to push through development scenarios within an operational setting.\r\nDemonstrated commitment to integrity while facing difficult production challenges and debugging issues.
