Requirements

Demonstrated experience building and supporting electromechanical systems - including actuators, sensors, motors, wiring, and control interfaces
Proficiency in using both mechanical and electrical hand tools, diagnostic instruments (multimeters, torque wrenches, etc.), and assembly techniques
Familiarity with aviation, aerospace, or high-reliability standards for assembly, harnessing, and workmanship (e.g., IPC-A-610, IPC/WHMA-A-620, or equivalent)
Ability to read and follow electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and mechanical assembly drawings
Understanding of safe work practices around high-voltage systems, rotating machinery, and prototype environments
A collaborative mindset and the ability to adapt in a fast-paced prototyping environment

Responsibilities

Assemble, install, and test integrated systems including motors, actuators, sensors, wire harnesses, control surfaces, and other electromechanical assemblies
Fabricate and route harnesses from schematics and 3D models, using crimping, soldering, and strain relief techniques to aerospace standards (e.g., IPC/WHMA-A-620)
Troubleshoot system-level issues involving electrical, mechanical, or sensor components—identify root causes and propose solutions in collaboration with engineers
Read and interpret both electrical schematics and mechanical assembly drawings to support builds and integration
Install and calibrate moving systems, such as control surfaces, propulsion assemblies, or actuation systems, ensuring smooth mechanical operation and proper electrical interfacing
Support testing and validation of complete vehicle systems - both on the bench and integrated into seaglider platforms
Collaborate across disciplines (e.g., mechanical, electrical, avionics, and systems engineering) to rapidly iterate and improve design and build processes
Contribute to tooling, workspace setup, and safety practices, including safe handling of high-voltage systems and moving machinery

REGENT

Designs and manufactures electric coastal transport vehicles

About REGENT

Regent Craft focuses on improving coastal transportation with its all-electric vehicles called Seagliders. These vehicles fly just above the water's surface, allowing them to travel at speeds of up to 180 mph while producing no emissions. They can cover distances of up to 180 miles, making them a fast and efficient alternative to traditional ferries and planes. Regent Craft primarily serves coastal areas and island communities, partnering with commuter airlines and ferry operators to enhance travel options. Unlike its competitors, Regent Craft utilizes existing dock infrastructure, which simplifies the transition to its services. The company's goal is to connect communities while reducing carbon emissions and making transportation more affordable and resilient.
