REGENT is building the seaglider; the first electric flying machine that will transport commercial passengers. With a vehicle that never flies higher than a few meters off the water, we unlock the ability to fly twice as far as an electric aircraft, and certification by maritime authorities which will let us fly first passengers by mid-decade.   

 

We are backed by the world’s best investors: the same investors who are behind SpaceX, Anduril, and Boom Supersonic, in addition to strategic investors like Lockheed Martin, Japan Airlines, and Hawaiian Airlines. We have over $8B in orders from some of the industry’s largest operators and are hard at work getting our full-scale, human-carrying prototype on the water next year. 

As a Senior Electric Propulsion Engineer at REGENT, your primary objective will be to support propulsion system testing and integration. You will support design verification and acceptance testing of primary propulsion components and systems such as EPUs (Electric Propulsion Units) comprised of motors, power electronics and propellers, power distribution components and energy storage systems. You will help develop test plans and processes as well as reduce data and document results to provide verification and validation artifacts, ultimately supporting vehicle integration and the safe operation and testing of the our first full scale seaglider. Candidates should be eager to provide hands on contribution to the assembly of components, execution of tests and integration of these systems into the vehicle. This role requires skills that can support all aspects of design, fabrication and assembly across disciplines such as mechanical, electrical and software engineering.

Prior experience with high power and high voltage systems is required. We are looking for candidates who fully understand how to effectively and safely test test both high voltage electrical systems and high powered rotating machinery.

This role may evolve into a leadership position in which candidates may ultimately become responsible for future iterations, assessment and development of propulsion system components or subsystems. This role will require working across multiple disciplines and along side engineers and techs from a variety of backgrounds spanning aerospace, maritime and automotive.

Working at REGENT, you’ll be in a fast-paced environment with exciting new challenges daily and abundant growth opportunities. Your coworkers are passionate about building zero-emission, high-speed seagliders that will revolutionize coastal transportation. Our team works collaboratively and across disciplines to safely marry the latest technologies from Aviation, Aerospace, and Maritime engineering. REGENT offers competitive benefits including healthcare, dental, and vision plans as well as an employee equity incentive plan.

REGENT is committed to providing our employees with benefits to support their complete well-being, from excellent health, dental, and vision insurance, to an unlimited vacation policy.
