About this role

Hadrian seeks a Factory Simulation Engineer to design and deploy precision simulation systems supporting autonomous aerospace and defense manufacturing. You'll develop low- to high-fidelity simulations, collaborate cross-functionally, and build scalable toolchains that enable faster, cheaper production of critical components.

What you'll do

  • Develop and refine discrete event and 3D simulations at varying fidelity levels for factory optimization
  • Convert conceptual layouts into executable simulations with actionable insights
  • Collaborate with engineering, operations, and leadership teams to deliver data-driven recommendations
  • Maintain and enhance simulation toolchain infrastructure for scalability
  • Build and manage library of parametric, reusable simulation assets
  • Debug and optimize simulation models while balancing rapid prototyping with codebase health

What they're looking for

  • Python (object-oriented programming)
  • Discrete event simulation (DES)
  • Visual Components or equivalent simulation software
  • Kinematics and PLC interfaces
  • CAD platforms (SolidWorks, NX)
  • Systems thinking and technical communication
  • Industrial engineering principles
  • Plugin development (Python/C#)

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan
  • Equity compensation
  • Flexible vacation policy
  • Relocation support (based on business need)
