About the Role

We are looking for a People Partner to play a critical role in enabling both our people and our business to perform at their highest levels. People Partners support a complex and diverse workforce, recognizing that different teams require different approaches to thrive. This role requires someone who can move fluidly between the strategic and the tactical, with a deep understanding of the distinct needs of both exempt and non-exempt employees in a regulated, high-integrity environment. People Partners at Hadrian are both business-minded and people-first, equally comfortable designing scalable programs as they are handling sensitive situations with discretion and care.

Responsibilities

• Act as a trusted advisor to leaders to align people strategies with business goals.
• Proactively manage and resolve employee relations issues with high judgment and discretion, ensuring compliance with applicable laws and company policies.

• Equip managers with the tools, training, and guidance needed to effectively lead teams across all levels of the organization, from engineering to the shop floor.
• Champion initiatives that promote employee engagement, high trust, and a sense of belonging — while also reinforcing accountability and performance standards.
• Support org-level transitions such as reorgs, leadership changes, and policy rollouts with clear planning, thoughtful communication, and change enablement.
• Interpret and apply people policies in ways that maintain fairness, clarity, and consistency across sites, shifts, and job types.
• Partner closely with peers in People Ops and Recruiting to drive holistic and scalable people programs that serve the full org.

Requirements

• 5+ years of relevant industry experience.
• Experience supporting both exempt and non-exempt populations, ideally in environments with manufacturing, engineering, or high-compliance requirements.
• Thrives in a dynamic environment with a diverse set of employees and evolving business needs; can flex between tactical support and long-term strategic thinking.
• Understands the business, its drivers, and how people programs impact operations, performance, and culture.
• Brings discipline to processes, follow-through, and documentation — especially in a compliance-driven and audit-sensitive environment.
• Navigates sensitive conversations with empathy, clarity, and maturity; builds trust across all levels of the organization.
• Clearly conveys information, decisions, and feedback in ways that resonate with both desk-based employees and hourly team members on the shop floor.
• Handles complex, gray-area people issues with sound judgment, risk awareness, and an eye for practical solutions.
• Builds strong relationships with stakeholders across the business to enable aligned and executable people strategies.
• Strategic advisor and coach to EPD leadership. Partner with VPs and directors as a thought partner on people implications of their roadmap, and coach managers.
• Organizational design and change management.
• Workforce planning and talent strategy with recruiting.
• Performance, talent, and compensation cycles. Running calibration, promotion, and comp planning for the org, plus succession and identifying critical-role risk.
• Partnering with the legal team on ER cases and investigations.
