    Regent 3.8company rating

    Controls engineer job in North Kingstown, RI

    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. Role OverviewAs a Controls Engineer, you'll help shape the way a revolutionary new class of vehicle moves. You'll contribute to the development of the seaglider's flight-control logic - ensuring it remains stable, responsive, and safe as it seamlessly transitions from displacement to hydrofoil to wing-in-ground-effect flight. Your work will coordinate aerodynamic and hydrodynamic surfaces into a unified, intelligent system that can gracefully handle gusts, waves, and the unexpected. Through high-fidelity simulation, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and hands-on tuning during sea trials, you'll play a key role in turning cutting-edge control theory into a certifiable, real-world mobility solution that changes how coastal regions connect. As part of the Software Team, you'll be joining a group of driven, collaborative, and talented engineers who take pride in solving complex technical challenges and making an impact as a team.

If you're energized by working at the intersection of cutting-edge innovation, real-world impact, and hands-on engineering, you'll be in the right place - and we'd be thrilled to have you on the team!What You'll Do Own vehicle control laws: Design and implement control laws for stabilization, mode transitions, envelope protection, and emergency fallbacks that keep the seaglider safe and responsive across all phases of flight. Apply safety-critical rigor: Define and trace requirements, lead design/code reviews, and develop rigorous test plans including SIL and HIL to meet certification-grade robustness. Simulate, analyze, refine: Use and extend high-fidelity simulation environments (MATLAB/Simulink or custom frameworks) to design and validate GNC algorithms. Perform both linear and nonlinear analysis to evaluate performance and iterate with confidence. Integrate multisensor navigation: Develop and optimize state estimation algorithms that integrate GNSS/INS, radar altimeter, and other sensor inputs for reliable positioning in challenging maritime environments. Tune with real-world data: Leverage flight test and sea trial data to iteratively refine control algorithms and close the loop between simulation and reality. Collaborate across disciplines: Work closely with aero, hydro, mechanical, and systems teams to align on actuator specs, control-surface design, and verification strategies. Lead test events: Plan, execute, and analyze full-scale test events to validate and mature flight controls, driving toward a certifiable and production-ready system. What You'll Bring Proven track record of designing and flight-testing control systems for aircraft, UAS, or similarly complex vehicles, driven by a deep passion for advancing control in multi-modal, high-coupling environments where safety, stability, and performance must coexist.

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 orchestrating seamless mode transitions, resolving nonlinear control issues, or fine-tuning state estimators in real-world sea conditions, you approach each problem with creativity and rigor. You're able to address immediate needs while also planning for future scalability and efficiency. 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.

    Regent 3.8company rating

    Controls engineer job in North Kingstown, RI

    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. Role OverviewAs a Senior GNC Engineer, you will own the seaglider's flight-control logic - everything that keeps the craft stable, responsive, and safe as it transitions from displacement to hydrofoil to wing-in-ground-effect flight. You'll craft control laws that harmonize aerodynamic and hydrodynamic surfaces, manage take-off and touchdown on water, and ensure graceful handling in gusty, wave-affected conditions. You'll validate your designs in high-fidelity simulation, prove them using hardware-in-the-loop, and refine them on both sub-scale and full-scale prototypes during sea trials. Beyond the technical execution, you'll shape the future of maritime mobility by developing fault-tolerant control strategies and robust state-estimation loops for a new class of vehicle. You'll mentor junior engineers, influence our flight-controls roadmap, and help guide our path to certification. As part of the Software Team, you'll be joining a group of driven, collaborative, and talented engineers who take pride in solving complex technical challenges and making an impact as a team. We hold a high bar for engineering rigor, move fast, think boldly, and rely on our teamwork to push boundaries and and turn breakthrough ideas into real-world technology. If you're energized by working at the intersection of cutting-edge innovation, real-world impact, and hands-on engineering, you'll be in the right place - and we'd be thrilled to have you on the team!What You'll Do Own vehicle control laws: Design and implement control laws for stabilization, mode transitions, envelope protection, and emergency fallbacks that keep the seaglider safe and responsive across all phases of flight. Apply safety-critical rigor: Define and trace requirements, lead design/code reviews, and develop rigorous test plans including SIL and HIL to meet certification-grade robustness. Simulate, analyze, refine: Use and extend high-fidelity simulation environments (MATLAB/Simulink or custom frameworks) to design and validate GNC algorithms. Perform both linear and nonlinear analysis to evaluate performance and iterate with confidence. Integrate multisensor navigation: Develop and optimize state estimation algorithms that integrate GNSS/INS, radar altimeter, and other sensor inputs for reliable positioning in challenging maritime environments. Tune with real-world data: Leverage flight test and sea trial data to iteratively refine control algorithms and close the loop between simulation and reality. Collaborate across disciplines: Work closely with aero, hydro, mechanical, and systems teams to align on actuator specs, control-surface design, and verification strategies. Lead test events: Plan, execute, and analyze full-scale test events to validate and mature flight controls, driving toward a certifiable and production-ready system. What You'll Bring Proven track record of designing and flight-testing control systems for aircraft, UAS, or similarly complex vehicles, with 10+ years of professional experience - or 5+ years with a relevant Ph.D. Deep passion for advancing control in multi-modal, high-coupling environments where safety, stability, and performance must coexist. Strong theoretical foundation in control theory, plus hands-on application to real systems Proven design of real-world control systems and state-estimation filters. Experience designing control algorithms and simulations in MATLAB/Simulink Demonstrated safety & quality mindset in regulated or mission-critical programs. Bonus Experience Ph.D. or research experience in nonlinear, adaptive, robust, or hybrid control. Direct contribution to ARP4754A, DO-178C, or DO-254 certification artifacts. CFD-coupled control design or ground-effect / hydrofoil dynamics experience. Flight-test or sea-trial planning and execution 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 orchestrating seamless mode transitions, resolving nonlinear control issues, or fine-tuning state estimators in real-world sea conditions, you approach each problem with creativity and rigor. You're able to address immediate needs while also planning for future scalability and efficiency. 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.
