About the company
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
Security at Saronic is a force multiplier, not a blocker. We’re looking for a Security Engineer to own network security end to end, including the corporate enterprise, our on-prem and production environments, our AWS cloud, and the communications and cryptography that keep autonomous vessels connected in contested, bandwidth-limited environments. Today this work is handled part-time by engineers with other primary duties; you will own it.
You’ll partner with Information Technology, Enterprise Technology, Internal Apps, Infrastructure, Software, Mission Operations, Forward Deployed Engineers, Cloud Security, Product Security, and Security Operations and the teams building our vessels and their communications to secure every path from the operator to the vessel.
This is an opportunity to design network security across a uniquely broad surface (enterprise, on-prem, cloud, and vessel comms), solve genuinely hard problems in securing constrained maritime links, and build the automation that keeps segmentation enforced as the footprint scales.
Responsibilities
•
Enterprise & On-Prem Network Security: Own firewalls, segmentation and microsegmentation, wireless, DNS, VPN/ZTNA, and device hardening across a growing multi-site footprint, including corporate offices, data centers, and on-prem and production environments (i.e., Palo Alto, Cisco, Aruba; GlobalProtect, Tailscale/WireGuard, IPsec). Move the enterprise toward zero-trust access and retire flat-network and legacy-VPN patterns.
•
Cloud Network Security: Design secure network architecture in AWS (commercial and GovCloud): VPC segmentation, private connectivity, and egress control.
•
Vessel Communications & Cryptography: Secure all vessel networking and communications, including cellular (LTE/5G), RF and radio links, SATCOM, mesh networking, and line-of-sight and beyond-line-of-sight connectivity, along with the command-and-control paths to and from vessels and platforms such as Echelon. Own cryptography and key management for platform communications, protect data in transit and at rest, and design resilient, secure links over intermittent, contested, low-bandwidth, and high-latency conditions.
•
Network Observability & NOC: Increase network visibility and observability (flow logs, telemetry, and monitoring) across enterprise, on-prem, and cloud, and partner with Information Technology to support the build-out of the Network Operations Center (NOC).
•
Automation & Monitoring: Automate network security (segmentation-as-code, configuration validation) and support network-based
Qualifications
•
5+ years of hands-on enterprise network security experience, or an equivalent combination of experience and demonstrated ability
Designed and operated firewalls, segmentation, VPN, and wireless in production (i.e., Palo Alto, Cisco, Aruba; GlobalProtect, WireGuard/IPsec)
Strong L3-L7 fundamentals: routing/BGP, TCP/UDP, TLS/PKI, and DNS
Cloud network security experience (AWS VPC design and controls)
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
Nice to have
Preferred Qualifications
•
Zero Trust / SASE / ZTNA architecture
•
Network observability and visibility tooling, and experience standing up or supporting a Network Operations Center (NOC)
•

•
Network automation at scale through scripting and Infrastructure-as-Code
•
Experience in defense, maritime, aerospace, or other high-assurance environments
Physical Demands
•
Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer
•
Occasional standing and walking within the office
•
Manual dexterity to operate a computer keyboard, mouse, and other office equipment
•
Visual acuity to read screens, documents, and reports
•
Occasional reaching, bending, or stooping to access file drawers, cabinets, or office supplies
