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.

• Coordinate the logistics behind operations, sustainment events, training deliveries, and R&D activities, including internal and external meetings, briefings, and team events
• Support coordination of cross-functional activities and follow up on action items to ensure timely completion
• Prepare meeting materials, agendas, and summaries for leadership and program reviews
• Manage and prioritize calendars for the Senior Director and team members, aligning schedules with organizational and mission priorities
• Provide administrative support, including document management, expense tracking, and report preparation
• Facilitate communication between leadership, technical teams, and external stakeholders
• Identify potential bottlenecks early and take decisive action to maintain operational momentum
• Identify and implement process improvements that enhance accuracy and efficiency across Mission Operations, raising the standard of program rigor for the team
• Assist with onboarding new team members by coordinating logistics and ensuring access to systems and resources
• U.S. and international travel in support of Mission Operations planning and execution
• Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Management, Engineering, Communications, or a related field OR 4+ years of military service with relevant leadership, administrative, or operational experience
• 5–7 years of relevant experience in program coordination, project management, or operations roles supporting operational, sustainment, training, or R&D programs
• Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Top Secret security clearance

• Ability to manage sensitive information with discretion and professionalism
• Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, technical environment
• Current U.S. passport
• Active Secret security clearance or higher
• Prior experience supporting defense, aerospace, or government programs
• Experience coordinating fielded operations, sustainment, training delivery, or R&D programs, particularly for maritime or unmanned systems

• Quality & Standards: Establishes standards for work quality across the operations, sustainment, training, and R&D programs they coordinate, and prioritizes long-term reliability. Implements process improvements that enhance accuracy and efficiency for the broader Mission Operations team.
• Execution: Addresses complex problems decisively and keeps critical programs on schedule. Identifies potential bottlenecks early and takes action to maintain operational momentum.
• Ownership: Accountable for the results and health of a significant portion of the Mission Operations portfolio. Anticipates risks, manages resources effectively, and ensures their area remains responsive to changing mission needs.

The job is in Austin, TX. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.
How Austin compares. Among the 120 largest places in Texas, Austin is #4 by population, #5 for remote work (#1 = most), #111 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #13 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, Travis County, is #5 of 254 counties for average pay ($96,267).
Austin has 979,539 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 3.2% of the population of Texas. It covers 326 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 3,001 people per square mile. The median age is 34.7, about the same as the state median (34.7 against 35.6).
The median gross rent is $1,729 a month (rent plus utilities), 23% above the state median ($1,729 against $1,403). Over a year that is 22.2% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $555,300, which is 5.9 times the median household income ($93,658); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 43.5% of households own their home, 31% below the state average (43.5% against 62.6%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.
The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX metropolitan area has 1,293,690 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $56,950 a year, 12% above the national median ($56,950 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (159,340 jobs, median $47,770); management (133,950 jobs, median $129,060); food preparation and serving related (120,570 jobs, median $33,280). The area is most specialised in computer and mathematical (1.9 times) and architecture and engineering (1.5 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($129,060) and computer and mathematical ($114,350). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Travis County was 3.6%. 75.1% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Travis County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 56.0% drive alone, 2.0% use public transit, 2.5% walk, 30.7% work from home. 10.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 40% below the state average (10.2% against 16.9%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
59.6% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 76% above the state share (59.6% against 33.8%). 18.7% of residents were born outside the United States, 7% above the state share (18.7% against 17.6%). The poverty rate is 12.0%, 13% below the state rate (12.0% against 13.8%).
The warmest month is Aug, averaging 86°F (30.1°C), and the coolest is Jan at 49°F (9.3°C). About 841 mm (33 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (111 mm) and Feb the driest (45 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
