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.
REGENT is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Vehicle Software Engineer to join our dynamic team. As a Senior Vehicle Software Engineer, you will play a key role in designing, implementing, and optimizing software systems for our Seaglider projects.
You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the seamless integration of software with hardware components, enabling safe and reliable flight operations. This is a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of electric aviation and contribute to the development of groundbreaking technology that will redefine air travel.
