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: Build and own enterprise applications and internal tools that power Hadrian's operational workflows end-to-end. Initial focus areas include legal technology (AI-powered contract tools, CLM infrastructure, compliance tracking) and cross-functional integrations connecting Legal, Sales, Finance, and Procurement with Salesforce, NetSuite, DocuSign, Microsoft 365 GCC, and other enterprise systems. This is a 0–1 build role. ## What You’ll Do - Enterprise Application Strategy and Roadmap – Identify and prioritize high-leverage workflow bottlenecks; build tooling with measurable impact on contract cycle times, legal team throughput, and cross-functional decision speed. Own legal technology as a core platform service — evaluate and recommend vendors, manage integration architecture, and translate operational pain points into technical requirements and system designs. - AI-Powered Contract Intelligence – Build AI-assisted contract review and analysis tools that surface key risk provisions, flag deviations from Hadrian’s standard positions, and generate structured change logs with prioritized issues and recommended responses. Build AI-assisted drafting workflows for first-pass language, redline responses, and negotiation positions based on Hadrian’s playbooks and prior deal history. - Contract Obligation Tracking – Develop obligation extraction and tracking systems that translate executed agreements into actionable compliance tasks for program, finance, and operations teams. Design and implement RAG systems and LLM-powered tooling against Hadrian’s contract corpus and legal knowledge base. - CLM Platform Ownership – Design, build, and own the logic and systems layer of Hadrian’s CLM platform — system configuration, intake and routing logic, approval workflows, and AI-driven automation from intake through close-out. Build and maintain contract execution workflows in DocuSign, Microsoft 365 GCC (SharePoint, Power Automate, Teams), and the CLM platform. - Procurement and Commercial Systems Integration – Build and maintain contract data structures and workflows in Salesforce (GovCloud Plus) and NetSuite, enabling seamless handoffs between Legal, Sales, and Finance. Design intake and routing logic connecting Salesforce opportunity data to legal contract workflows, and integrate purchase order and procurement workflows with the buy-side contract stack. - Portfolio Reporting and Analytics – Build dashboards giving Legal, Finance, and executive stakeholders real-time visibility into contract status, risk exposure, and milestone compliance. Coordinate with Finance on contract-related ERP entries and ensure downstream financial milestones, delivery schedules, and payment terms are accurately tracked. - Legal Operations Across the Enterprise – Build automated workflows supporting Hadrian’s full legal function — including ITAR/CUI compliance tracking, government contract flowdown monitoring, M&A and financing transaction support, and cross-functional legal interfaces with Sales, Finance, and Program Management. Design compliance attestation pipelines and regulatory tracking tools that surface FAR/DFARS obligations, OTA milestone requirements, and clause-level gaps before they become problems. What Will Set You Apart - Prior experience building legal technology, CLM systems, or contract management tools. Experience with AI/LLM-powered applications in production (RAG, document processing, agentic workflows). Proficiency with Salesforce as a CRM and at least one major ERP (NetSuite or Oracle preferred). Experience building in GCC environments with ITAR, CUI, or CMMC compliance requirements. Experience at a defense-tech, aerospace, or advanced manufacturing company. Familiarity with vector databases, embedding pipelines, and document retrieval systems. ## Compensation For this role, the target salary range is $120,000 - $250,000 (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. ## 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.
