JOB SUMMARY
Saronic is seeking a Mechanic IV to serve as the senior hands-on technician for our deployable maintenance footprint, supporting our autonomous platforms, including the 12 ft UUV, the 24 ft Corsair, and the 52 ft Mirage, at test sites, depots, and forward operating locations. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Deployable Operations within the Sustainment organization, you will diagnose, repair, and sustain diesel, mechanical, electrical, and integrated vehicle systems in the field and set the technical and quality standard the rest of the team works to.

The ideal candidate has deep marine diesel experience, is credible across mechanical, electrical, and networked systems, and is comfortable working independently in remote, fast-moving environments with incomplete information.
Scope of the role
