Saronic Technologies is a leader in revolutionizing autonomy at sea, dedicated to developing state-of-the-art solutions that enhance maritime operations through autonomous and intelligent platforms.
The Test Range Coordinator is Saronic’s primary interface to U.S. Government test ranges for live-fire, missile, and target test events conducted aboard our autonomous surface vessels. You will own the end-to-end coordination of each range event — from initial scheduling and safety approvals, through launcher installation and checkout, vessel movement to the range, ordnance onload, and live test execution, to post-event launcher de-installation and demobilization. Acting as the connective tissue between Saronic engineering and operations, the Government customer, payload and effector providers, and the range authorities, you will make sure every stakeholder has the access, documentation, and information needed to execute a safe, on-schedule, and successful test.
Range scheduling & access
Serve as Saronic’s single point of contact to U.S. Government test ranges — including Cape Canaveral Space Force Station / Space Launch Delta 45 (Eastern Range), the Point Mugu Sea Range (NAWCWD, Naval Base Ventura County), and the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) — as well as other Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB) sites as programs require.
Submit, track, and maintain range-use requests and Universal Documentation System (UDS) products (e.g., Program Introduction, Program Requirements, and Operations Requirements documents), and negotiate and lock test windows on range schedules.
Coordinate range instrumentation, tracking, optics, telemetry, and Time-Space-Position Information (TSPI) requirements, along with frequency/spectrum requests, with range personnel.
Manage schedule conflicts, slip planning, and re-baselining across multiple concurrent test campaigns.
Safety, ordnance & regulatory approvals
Develop and shepherd range safety packages, hazard analyses, mission rules, and launch commit criteria through range safety and flight safety boards.
Coordinate ordnance transportation, explosives safety siting, and Explosives Safety Quantity-Distance (ESQD) requirements in accordance with DoD and range explosives safety standards.
Coordinate ordnance/effector onload, staging, arming and de-arming, and disposition, including Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and range safety support.
Support environmental and regulatory compliance, including Notices to Mariners and Airmen (NOTMAR/NOTAM) and marine-mammal and environmental monitoring requirements.
Test event planning & execution
Build and maintain the integrated schedule for each test event, spanning launcher hardware installation, checkout, vessel movement to the range, ordnance onload, execution, and de-installation.
Coordinate logistics for vessel transport to and from the range (over-the-road and/or marine transit), launch and recovery, and support and safety craft.
Lead Test Readiness Reviews (TRRs), rehearsals and dry runs, and go/no-go processes, and run day-of coordination among range control, the Saronic test team, and payload providers.
Manage post-test launcher de-installation, demobilization, range clearance, and event close-out, including data hand-off and lessons learned.
Stakeholder & information management
Act as the information hub across Saronic, the Government customer, and payload/effector providers, maintaining shared schedules, action-item logs, interface documentation, and status reporting.
Coordinate the flow of technical and programmatic information, including handling of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and classified material in accordance with program security requirements.
Facilitate interface control between Saronic vessel and launcher hardware and third-party effectors, missiles, and targets (e.g., aerial and surface target drones).
Support the agreements and funding mechanisms that enable range use
Bachelor’s degree in engineering, a physical science, logistics/operations management, or a related field — or equivalent military/operational experience in lieu of a degree.
3–6 years of experience in test range operations, missile/weapons or flight test, range safety, or military test and operations.
Working knowledge of U.S. Government test range scheduling, safety, and documentation processes.
Familiarity with ordnance and explosives handling and safety requirements.
Demonstrated ability to plan and coordinate complex, multi-stakeholder events against a fixed schedule and budget.
Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to brief both technical teams and Government leadership.
Willingness and ability to travel frequently (up to ~50–75% during active test periods) and to work on the waterfront and aboard vessels in an outdoor marine environment.
Prior working relationships with, or direct experience at, the Point Mugu Sea Range / NAWCWD, PMRF, Cape Canaveral / SLD 45, Eglin / Gulf Range, White Sands Missile Range, or similar ranges.
Military background in surface warfare, aviation ordnance, gunner’s mate, EOD, range operations, or space/missile operations (U.S. Navy, USSF, USMC, Army, or USAF).
Experience with unmanned/autonomous surface vessels (USV/ASV) or other maritime platforms.
Familiarity with missile/effector integration, launchers, and fire-control interfaces.
Knowledge of the Universal Documentation System (UDS) and Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB) processes.
Familiarity with DoD explosives safety standards (e.g., DoD 6055.09-M) and range safety documentation.
Active Secret clearance (or higher).
Project management certification (e.g., PMP) or equivalent demonstrated experience.
Small-boat operations experience or relevant U.S. Coast Guard credentials.
Significant travel to test ranges, with extended on-site stays around test windows; travel is campaign-driven and may exceed 50% during active test periods.

The job is in Arlington, VA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.
How Arlington compares. Among the 100 largest places in Virginia, Arlington is #3 by population, #92 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #9 for remote work (#1 = most), #10 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, Arlington County, is #1 of 133 counties for average pay ($122,856).
Arlington has 236,254 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 2.7% of the population of Virginia. It covers 26 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 9,088 people per square mile. The median age is 35.5, 9% younger than the state median (35.5 against 39.0). It is a census-designated place: a community the Census Bureau counts as a unit, without a city government of its own, so services such as police, roads and zoning usually come from the county.
The median gross rent is $2,322 a month (rent plus utilities), 47% above the state median ($2,322 against $1,579). Over a year that is 19.6% 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 $895,000, which is 6.3 times the median household income ($142,114); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 41.3% of households own their home, 39% below the state average (41.3% against 67.3%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.
The Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV metropolitan area has 3,136,190 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $71,060 a year, 39% above the national median ($71,060 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are business and financial operations (369,190 jobs, median $105,260); management (319,760 jobs, median $165,010); office and administrative support (290,050 jobs, median $53,250). The area is most specialised in legal (2.6 times) and computer and mathematical (2.2 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are legal ($175,070) and management ($165,010). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Arlington County was 2.9%. 75.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Arlington County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 38.0% drive alone, 14.0% use public transit, 4.4% walk, 35.3% work from home. 14.7% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 17% below the state average (14.7% against 17.6%). 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.
77.1% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 83% above the state share (77.1% against 42.2%). 22.4% of residents were born outside the United States, 71% above the state share (22.4% against 13.1%). The poverty rate is 7.4%, 25% below the state rate (7.4% against 9.9%).
The warmest month is Jul, averaging 78°F (25.8°C), and the coolest is Jan at 32°F (0.1°C). About 1,152 mm (45 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jun is the wettest month (118 mm) and Jan the driest (67 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.
Closest cities in this guide: Bailey's Crossroads (3 miles, rent 13% lower); Falls Church (4 miles, rent 6% lower); Alexandria (4 miles, rent 10% lower); West Falls Church (5 miles, rent 11% lower). Rent differences are against Arlington; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
