About the role

Hadrian is building autonomous factories to reindustrialize America. The Technical Field Engineer will stand up IT infrastructure at new and existing factory sites, deploying hardware, configuring network and endpoint devices, and coordinating with construction and facilities teams to ensure production-ready environments.

Responsibilities

  • Planning & Documentation: Partner with the Manager of IT Deployment on project planning, scoping, and requirements for new sites and line expansions
  • Build and maintain deployment documentation: runbooks, network diagrams, rack elevations, and asset records
  • Document as-built conditions and keep site records accurate as the build progresses
  • Work with architects and designers to ensure any changes or modifications are captured and documented as part of the process
  • Develop repeatable deployment playbooks so each site launch is faster and more consistent than the last
  • Track project status, timelines, and materials, and flag risks early
  • Site Standup & Hardware Deployment: Travel to new and existing factories to stand up IT infrastructure and deploy hardware
  • Rack, cable, and configure network gear (switches, WAPs, firewalls) and supporting infrastructure
  • Deploy and configure endpoints, peripherals, and shop-floor devices for new manufacturing lines
  • Work with vendors to deploy and support physical security systems (cameras, badge/access readers, sensors), AV and conference room systems, and office IoT devices such as printers
  • Partner with Factory Development on-site to align IT deployment with machinery installation and the overall factory buildout
  • Bring sites online: validate connectivity, wireless coverage, and core services to production-ready
  • Provide hands-on support during go-live, then hand off cleanly to the local or central IT team
  • Vendor Coordination & On-Site Project Management: Coordinate and project manage electrical and low-voltage vendors on-site: schedule work, track progress against the IT scope, and keep installs on timeline
  • Confirm cabling, fiber, pathways, and power are built to spec, and hold vendors accountable to Hadrian standards
  • Serve as the on-site IT point of contact for Factory Development, construction, and facilities, providing regular status updates
  • Manage local vendor relationships and escalate issues that put the schedule or scope at risk
  • Logistics & Asset Management: Receive, stage, and deploy infrastructure and endpoint hardware
  • Manage shipping and receiving of IT materials across sites
  • Maintain accurate asset inventory for deployed equipment and consumables
  • Security & Compliance: Enforce Hadrian’s security tooling on deployed devices: EDR, MDM, and IAM
  • Support CMMC Level 2 and CUI handling requirements at applicable sites
  • Coordinate with central IT and InfoSec on compliance during buildouts

Qualifications

  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively to new builds and existing factories
  • Hands-on infrastructure deployment experience: racking, cabling, switches, WAPs, firewalls
  • Experience coordinating or project managing electrical, low-voltage, or structured cabling vendors on-site
  • Experience deploying and supporting physical security systems (cameras, badge readers, sensors), AV/conference room systems, and office IoT devices such as printers
  • Comfortable collaborating cross-functionally with construction, facilities, and engineering teams on the ground
  • Endpoint deployment and management experience (Intune, Mosyle, or FleetDM)
  • Networking fundamentals: LAN/WAN, VLANs, Wi-Fi, firewall basics
  • Familiarity with Okta for identity and access management
  • Strong documentation habits and comfort building runbooks, diagrams, and as-built records
