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

This person is the analytical and execution engine of Hadrian’s capital markets function, partnering directly with the CFO and finance leadership to fund Hadrian’s growth across debt, equity, and alternative financing. They will live in capital structure models and market data, building the work product that drives financing strategy: debt capacity and sources-and-uses analyses, credit and liquidity models, financing comps across HY bonds, term loans, revolvers, and private credit, and the lender and investor materials that support live processes. They will own discrete workstreams end to end (a financing model, a lender presentation, a covenant compliance package, a market update) under the direction of finance leadership, rather than owning transactions in full, working alongside Treasury, FP&A, Accounting, and Legal to keep financing work aligned with the broader business. The role sits at the intersection of finance, strategy, and the defense / advanced-manufacturing market, and scales as Hadrian’s capital needs and financing cadence grow.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Support execution of debt and equity financings (revolvers, term loans, private credit, equipment and facility financing, government-backed loans, and equity raises) through model maintenance, data-room build-out, lender Q&A, and term-sheet comparison.
• Prepare high-quality lender-, investor-, Board-, and Exec-facing materials, including lender presentations, credit memos, and financing recommendations.
• Own recurring lender reporting and credit agreement compliance (compliance certificates, borrowing base and covenant calculatio
