Electromechanical Technician

About the role

REGENT is scaling its innovative Seaglider vehicles from prototype to full production. The Electromechanical Technician will integrate and test critical mechanical and electrical systems, helping bring a new category of coastal transportation to market.

Key responsibilities

• Assemble, install, and test integrated systems such as motors, actuators, sensors, wire harnesses, and control surfaces.
• Fabricate and route harnesses from schematics and 3D models using crimping, soldering, and strain‑relief techniques to aerospace standards.
• Troubleshoot system‑level electrical, mechanical, or sensor issues, identify root causes and propose solutions with engineers.
• Read and interpret electrical schematics and mechanical assembly drawings to support builds and integration.
• Install and calibrate moving systems, ensuring smooth mechanical operation and proper electrical interfacing.
• Support testing and validation of complete vehicle systems on benches and integrated Seaglider platforms.
• Collaborate across mechanical, electrical, avionics, and systems engineering teams to iterate designs.
• Contribute to tooling, workspace setup, and safety practices, including high‑voltage and moving machinery safety.

Required profile

• Hands‑on experience building and supporting electromechanical systems (actuators, sensors, motors, wiring, control interfaces).
• Proficiency with mechanical and electrical hand tools, diagnostic instruments (multimeters, torque wrenches, etc.).
• Familiarity with aviation/aerospace or high‑reliability assembly standards (e.g., IPC‑A‑610, IPC/WHMA‑A‑620).
• 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.
• Collaborative mindset and adaptability in a fast‑paced prototyping environment.

Required skills

• Motor and actuator integration
• Sensor installation and calibration
• Wire harness fabrication (crimping, soldering, strain relief)
• Reading electrical schematics and mechanical drawings
• Use of diagnostic tools (multimeter, torque wrench)
• Knowledge of IPC/WHMA‑A‑620 and IPC‑A‑610 standards
