Who are Hadrian's decision-makers?

Chris Power founded Hadrian and remains CEO. He sets the company's core strategy: building automated U.S. factories that can manufacture aerospace and defense hardware faster than the legacy supplier base.

The 2026 leadership additions matter because they show Hadrian moving into higher-stakes programs. Caleb Sima adds security leadership, Peter Feaver adds national-security policy depth, and Wallis Laughrey anchors the munitions push.

The buying committee depends on what you sell. Factory equipment, robotics, tooling, quality systems, and materials flow through manufacturing and operations leaders; security, identity, compliance, and cloud tools flow through security and engineering; defense partnerships flow through business development and program leadership.

For large strategic purchases, Chris Power and the executive team will influence the decision, but the practical owner is usually the person responsible for a factory, program, or technical domain.

Hadrian is organizing around repeatable factories and defense product lines. That creates separate centers of gravity: factory launch and operations, software and data infrastructure, security and compliance, maritime, munitions, and customer programs.

As the company moves from Torrance into Mesa and Alabama, expect more formal procurement and operational controls. The account map should follow factories and programs rather than only corporate headquarters.
