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 Shipyard Integration Manager owns two things that decide whether Port Alpha starts up cleanly: bringing the new facility into operation asset by asset, and integrating subcontracted trades and trade partners into the yard so they operate as an extension of the Saronic workforce. This role sits at the seam between the Port Alpha Development Program, which builds the shipyard, and the operating organization that will run it.
As each building, crane, shiplift, panel line, utility system, and support area is completed, this role drives it through acceptance, turnover, and operational readiness: documentation, training, spares, maintenance plans, and the people and procedures needed to run it on day one. In parallel, it establishes how external trades and contractors are onboarded, supervised, measured, and held to the yard's safety, quality, and schedule standards, so that the mix of internal and contract labor needed to ramp production never becomes a source of friction or risk.
This role works closely with Asset Reliability & Facility Operations, Production, Production Engineering, EHS, Quality, Supply Chain / Procurement, the facility construction team, and the Site Project Management Team. It requires someone comfortable running a disciplined turnover process while also managing the field-level realities of contract labor on a live construction and production site.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Facility Integration & Operational Readiness
- Own the asset-by-asset integration plan for the new facility: define what 'ready to operate' means for each building, system, and major piece of equipment, and track every asset against it.
- Run the acceptance and turnover process with the construction team and vendors, including commissioning witness, punch list closure, turnover packages, as-builts, and warranty handover.
- Ensure operating procedures, operator and maintainer training, critical spares, and preventive maintenance plans are in place before an asset is released to Production or Facility Operations.
- Coordinate operational readiness reviews and manage the risks and open items that could delay the start of production in each area.
Contractor & Trade Partner Integration
- Own the integration of subcontracted trades, specialty contractors, and trade partners into shipyard operations, from initial scoping through demobilization.
- Establish clear expectations for contractor performance, supervision, and accountability, and act as the primary escalation point for contractor issues affecting production or readiness.
- Ensure contractor scopes are sequenced with internal work and with facility turnover so that crews, access, and SIMOPS are deconflicted.
- Develop the y
