Job Description

Saronic Technologies is a leader in revolutionizing defense autonomy at sea, dedicated to developing state-of-the-art solutions that enhance maritime operations for the Department of Defense (DoD) through autonomous and intelligent platforms.

As a Corporate Security Engineer, you’ll safeguard the systems that power Saronic’s mission. You’ll engineer, harden, and operate Microsoft 365 and AWS environments to meet defense-grade security requirements while protecting our people, data, and operations.

You’ll own the protection of every employee, system, and credential. Your work will secure the full user lifecycle by automating onboarding / offboarding, protecting remote and traveling employees, and minimizing human-targeted risks like phishing and social engineering.

You will design secure-by-default platforms, automate compliance and monitoring through cloud solutions, and ensure our environments remain resilient, frictionless, and compliant.

At Saronic, security is a force multiplier; security is not a blocker. You will have the autonomy to build and the mandate to innovate, working side-by-side with engineers who are developing technology that directly supports national defense. This role is ideal for someone who wants to own security at scale, shape a defense-grade security program, and see their impact every day.

You’ll thrive here if you’re driven by mission, biased toward action, and enjoy working in a high-trust, low-ego team that values resilience, integrity, and creativity.
