## About the role

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. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
