Company mission
To build the planet's most efficient factory to accelerate a democratic, abundant, spacefaring future.
Role
Who you are
- You can build. Strong software engineering fundamentals and a track record of shipping identity systems at scale — not just configuring a vendor tool or leaning on AI-assisted coding
- Real command of core identity concepts — OAuth 2.0 flows, OIDC, SAML, RBAC, and relationship-based access control (ReBAC) — and the ability to design systems that exploit these protocols well
- Hands-on depth with one or more IdPs (Okta / Entra / Google Workspace / Auth0 / Zitadel), since day-to-day is implementing, designing, and integrating these platforms
- Cloud identity depth — Azure service principals, AWS IAM — and a clear grasp of how those identities map to real infrastructure
- The autonomy and urgency to own the identity domain end-to-end on a small, high-leverage team with minimal direction
Desirable
- Fine-grained authorization at scale (ReBAC with OpenFGA / Zanzibar-style systems) built and run in production
- Identity engineering for OT/manufacturing or other regulated, controlled environments
- Large-scale passkey/FIDO2 or PAM (CyberArk/Teleport) rollouts, and secrets management with HashiCorp Vault
- Experience building on a small, high-automation team where output-per-engineer is the measure; detection-engineering and ITAR-aware access design
What the job involves
- As our Senior Identity Engineer, you will own workforce and workload identity end-to-end — SSO, MFA, the joiner-mover-leaver lifecycle, privileged access, secrets, and service/machine identity — across corporate, cloud, and factory systems that handle export-controlled technical data
- You will build an automation-first, least-privilege identity program that shrinks our largest attack surface while keeping engineers fast. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role on a small, high-leverage security team in Los Angeles
- Design, implement, and operate our IdP stack (e.g., Okta, Entra, Google Workspace, Auth0, or Zitadel) — SSO, SCIM provisioning, and phishing-resistant MFA — and build the systems around it
- Build identity systems at scale that put OAuth 2.0 / OIDC / SAML and modern authorization models (RBAC and relationship-based access control) to work in production
- Own cloud identity end-to-end — Azure service principals, AWS IAM, and workload/service identity — and tie those identities cleanly to the underlying infrastructure
- Work cross-functionally to help other teams meet their identity needs, and automate the access lifecycle (joiner-mover-leaver) and reviews
- Partner with Detection & Response and Compliance/FSO so identity telemetry is detectable, actionable, and audit-ready
Our take
Hadrian is an industrial automation company that creates autonomous factories for aerospace components. The inspiration for Hadrian was the notion that throughout history, empires begin to fall when they outsource their core industries to lower-cost countries, resulting in internal stagnation and mass unemployment.
To counter this historic trend, Hadrian was founded, which uses machine learning to automate the processes of component factories. It targets aerospace and defence, which are areas in which the USA relies on boutique experts who lack the manpower to build at scale. Its solution addresses bottlenecks in manufacturing that slow down progress, improving efficiency and capacity.
With strong investment, Hadrian is setting a precedent for a new era of machine work innovation. Its main challenge remains to convince smaller manufacturers to embrace the precision and time-saving benefits of automation. It is investing in team and product growth, including the launch of an additive manufacturing division that will deliver scalable and production-ready capacity for the US defense sector and allied partners.
