Factory Simulation Engineer

About the Role:

Join Hadrian’s Factory Simulation Team as part of the Factory Automation group. As a key technical contributor at the forefront of advanced manufacturing you will operate as a key contributor inventing and deploying solutions across our factory network, working alongside leadership, automation, factory development engineering, and operations teams.

This cornerstone role is centered on the design, development, and deployment of simulation systems that support rapid decision making for scalable high-performance manufacturing across domains such as forging, casting, maching, welding, and assembly. Your work will help shape the capabilities of our future factories through hands-on technical execution and cross-functional collaboration.

What You’ll Do:

• Develop and refine low-, mid-, and high-fidelity simulations that align with factory build and optimization goals.

• Convert ambiguous layout concepts into executable DES and 3D simulations.

• Collaborate with engineering, operations, and leadership to deliver data-driven, actionable simulation insights.

• Maintain and enhance the simulation toolchain to support long-term scalability and usability.

• Create and manage a robust library of parametric and reusable simulation assets..

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong systems thinking with a balance between rapid prototyping and sustainable platform design.

• Demonstrated experience in simulation development using Python (OOP), Visual Components, Omniverse or similar tools.

• Ability to distill technical results into clear insights for both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Self-driven, capable of taking initiatives from concept to functional MVP with measurable impact.

• Familiarity with kinematics, discrete event simulation, factory flows, and production methodologies.

What Will Set You Apart:

• Ability to rapidly build prototypes while thoughtfully managing long-term codebase health.

• Excellent cross-functional communication, with a talent for user-focused storytelling and iterative design.

• Broad technical skill set, including debugging, plugin/extension development (Python/C#), and data modeling.

• Background in industrial engineering principles, including line balancing and ROI analysis.

• Proficiency with 3D Modeling platforms (SolidWorks, NX, Blender), Siemens TeamCenter, and automated parametric asset creation.

Compensation

For this role, the target salary range is 160k-190k (actual range may vary based on experience).
