From the posting

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.

JOB OVERVIEW

The Test Planner defines and sequences all forms of testing required to bring a vessel from fabrication through commissioning and delivery, covering structural/tank testing, piping system testing, electrical testing, machinery and propulsion trials, and vessel-level dock and sea trials. This role establishes the master test plan that ties every discipline's test requirements into a single, logical sequence tied to the build schedule.

Shipbuilding test programs span dozens of interdependent test types across structural, piping, electrical, HVAC, machinery, and outfitting systems, each with its own prerequisites, acceptance criteria, and regulatory requirements. The Test Planner ensures these tests happen in the right order, at the right stage of construction, without forcing rework or blocking downstream trades, and draws on experience from other shipyard programs to anticipate sequencing issues before they surface.

This role works closely with design engineering, production engineering, quality assurance, classification society surveyors, and the Master Planner to build a test program the yard can execute reliably across multiple ship programs.
