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.
As a Seaglider Test Operator, you will serve as a test crew member to safely execute on-water sea and air trials and demonstrations of prototype and production Seagliders. You'll assist in engineering sea and air trials and vehicle demonstrations, including initial envelope expansion and vehicle flights domestic and international customer and investor - collaborating with fellow operators within the test operations team, ensuring adequate training of all operators, developing foundational operational documents and test cards, executing test plans, performing risk assessments, and coordinating with external stakeholders.
This is a commercial developmental test program moving at startup speed. You'll help write the playbook with our team: building procedures, checklists, and training materials from scratch while executing tests safely and efficiently. Pace expectations are closer to an aerospace startup than a government program - and we're looking for someone energized by that.
You'll work closely with engineers to define test objectives and feedback results, with business development and marketing teams to plan demonstrations, and with the broader test team on day-to-day operations.
If you've ever wanted to be one of the first people to fly a genuinely new category of vehicle - and help define how it's tested and operated - this is that role.
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.

REGENT's mission is to drastically reduce the cost and headache of regional transportation between coastal destinations. We create Seaglider vessels, wing-in-ground-effect craft that fly just above the water's surface and couple the high speed of airplanes with the convenience of boats, all at the low cost of an all-electric system. The 12-passenger Viceroy Seaglider model will service routes up to 180 miles at 180 mph with existing battery technology, and routes up to 400 miles with next-gen batteries, all via existing dock infrastructure. Backed by the same investors who support SpaceX, Anduril, and Archer Aviation, our team of passionate, forward-thinking builders combines the best of aerospace and maritime expertise to turn zero-emission, high-speed coastal travel intro reality.
