The posting

At REGENT, we’re on a mission to revolutionize regional transportation between coastal cities. We're not just building vehicles, we're creating a new category of transportation: the Seaglider. These groundbreaking wing-in-ground-effect craft travel just above the water’s surface, combining the speed of an airplane with the low operating costs of a boat. Capable of 180 miles at 180 mph on today's battery tech (and up to 400 miles with next-gen batteries), Seagliders will unlock fast, affordable, and sustainable coastal transit for passengers and cargo - connecting cities, islands, and communities like never before.

Backed by leading investors and powered by a team of passionate, forward-thinking engineers, builders, and operators, we’re now scaling from a breakthrough prototype to full production - and building the team to make it happen.

ROLE OVERVIEW

REGENT is looking for an Engineering Intern to work with the Chief Engineer - Viceroy, spending a summer at the center of Viceroy, our first manned certification program, working directly alongside the person responsible for how it all comes together. This isn't an internship built around one discipline or one team. You'll move across systems, mechanical, electrical, controls, and software work as the program demands it, picking up analysis, drawings, and integration tasks wherever the need is greatest during an intense and fast-moving stretch of the program. It's a rare chance to see how a complex vehicle program actually fits together end to end, rather than experiencing just one slice of it.

You'll sit within our Engineering & Technology team and report directly to the Chief Engineer, who will actively coach and mentor you through the breadth of the role rather than narrowing it down to something more conventional. Because this is a newly created position, you'll have real input into shaping what it becomes, including helping define what a technically grounded systems engineering path looks like at REGENT going forward. If you're the kind of person who gets energized by variety, wants to understand how mechanical, electrical, controls, and software decisions interact to shape a vehicle's performance, cost, and schedule, and is excited by the idea of helping bring Seagliders into reality from the inside, this is a role where you'll thrive.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Float Across the Program: You'll move across systems, mechanical, electrical, controls, and software work on Viceroy, going wherever the program needs help most on a given week.

- Dig Into Analysis and Drawings: You'll contribute to the analysis and drawing work driving Viceroy forward during a particularly active stretch of the program.

- Lead a Cross-Discipline Trade Study: By the midpoint of the term, you'll complete a trade study that touches multiple disciplines from start to finish, building a real understanding of how system-level decisions affect performance, cost, and schedule.

- Build Toward Integration: You'll work toward getting an integrated subsystem running in our hardware-in-the-loop environment by the end of the term, whether that's a VCC controlling an actuator or a sensor-fused solution providing feedback.

- Learn Directly From the Chief Engineer: You'll get hands-on coaching and mentorship as you navigate the breadth of the role, with someone invested in helping you connect the dots across disciplines.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

- Multidisciplinary Technical Grounding: You have real experience or coursework in systems, mechanical, electrical, controls, or software engineering, and ideally more than one of these.

- Mechatronics Curiosity: Exposure to mechanisms or electromechanical systems is a plus and will help you move comfortably between disciplines.

- Genuine Enthusiasm for Seagliders: You're drawn to the idea of reinventing coastal transportation and want to understand how a real vehicle program comes together.

- Comfort With Ambiguity: You're energized rather than overwhelmed by a role without a fixed lane, and you're ready to shape your own path alongside your manager.

- Clear, Confident Communication: You can communicate well across teams and disciplines, translating what you're learning into useful updates and questions.

- A Strong Appetite to Learn: You're ready to be taught almost everything, and you bring the curiosity and follow-through to make the most of that.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Collaborative Team Player: You believe that great things happen when teams work together. You communicate effectively and collaborate with engineers, stakeholders, and other cross-functional teams to align on goals and move projects forward. You bring people together, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and moving towards a shared vision.

- Creative Problem Solver: You thrive on tackling complex challenges and finding innovative solutions. Whether you're resolving installation challenges, debugging elusive electrical issues, or adapting on the fly during integration and test, you bring a practical, inventive mindset to every problem. You don't just patch issues - you improve processes, anticipate downstream impacts, and help turn one-off fixes into scalable solutions that raise the bar for future builds.

- Adaptable & Agile: In a fast-paced, ever-evolving startup environment, you quickly adapt to changing priorities and requirements. You approach challenges with a calm, resilient mindset, and know how to pivot and adjust your approach as needed, ensuring that progress continues without missing a beat.

- Innovative Mindset: You’re driven by curiosity and a passion for technology. You’re passionate about driving continuous improvement, embracing new technologies and methodologies to enhance efficiency, quality, and team performance.

WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive compensation

- Housing Stipend available for those temporarily moving to join our team

- Daily, free catered lunches

- Learning & professional development opportunities

- Meaningful projects that make an impact

- Mentorship & guidance from experienced team members

If you’re ready to take on an exciting challenge, grow with us, and make a lasting impact, we want to hear from you. Even if you don’t meet every requirement, but you see yourself contributing to our mission, we encourage you to apply! We value diverse skillsets and experiences and believe in the potential of passionate individuals to make a big impact.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
