Overview
We are seeking a Senior Program Coordinator to support Saronic’s Mission Operations organization in Austin, TX. Mission Operations is the operational execution arm of Saronic, responsible for four lines of work that put the company’s autonomous platforms on the water and keep them mission-ready for defense and commercial customers alike: Operations, Sustainment, Training, and Research & Development. This full-time, onsite role is central to that execution: it leads coordination across the complex, multi-workstream programs the team runs in each of these areas, drives work from planning through delivery, and ensures operational readiness milestones are met. The Senior Program Coordinator partners cross-functionally with engineering, test, and mission stakeholders to remove blockers and align on priorities, owns the systems used to track progress and decisions, and provides the scheduling and administrative backbone that allows Mission Operations to execute reliably for Saronic and its customers, all within a fast-paced, mission-driven technology environment.
