Throughout his history, Varaan has been a member of many different organizations, most of which are associated with Starfleet in one way or another. The following are short summaries of his time with each.
Vulcan Security Directorate (V'Shar)
Recruited by his father-in-law in 2351, not long after the wedding, Varaan's natural engineering skills were put to use by Vulcan Intelligence. After two years of training in support services, Varaan spent the next eight years behind the scenes. On one particular mission, Varaan's involvement became more than just supplying the operative with the necessary equipment at the rendezvous point. Romulan Tal Shiar agents on Vulcan nearly ruined the entire operation, until Varaan's quick thinking salvaged the mission. Varaan's superiors decided to make him an operative instead, and Varaan completed another two years of training, this time in counterintelligence and covert operations. Varaan spent the next twelve years as a very successful operative, but was constantly wanting to tinker with something. He resigned from the V'Shar, and enrolled at Starfleet Academy.
Starfleet Corps of Engineers
As Varaan had years of engineering experience even before enrolling in Starfleet, and he graduated from the Academy with a major in engineering, it was "only logical" that he would apply for membership with the Corps of Engineers upon completion of his studies.
