Senior Embedded Software Engineer

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.

As a Senior Embedded Software Engineer, you will work with our flight software, GNC, and Avionics team to develop embedded code and drivers for our flight control computers and controllers. 

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Work with a variety of sensor systems, actuators, and communication protocols.
• Define, communicate, and develop software requirements and high level design principles.
• In this position, you will play an integral role in getting our first-generation seaglider in the air.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

• Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience
• 8+ years of relevant work experience defining, communicating, and developing for software requirements and high-level design principles
• Safety-critical software experience (aerospace, medical, automotive, or similar applications)
• Experience writing device drivers, emulators, and hardware abstraction layers for embedded flight control computers and IO controllers
• Experience writing low-level software for sensors, actuators
• Experience developing software on resource-constrained RTOSs and configuring RTOSs (DEOS, VxWorks, Integrity, etc.)
• Familiarity with object-oriented design principles
• Familiarity with common embedded comms protocols like I2C, SPI, RS422/485, CAN
• Strong programming skills in C++, and C, including both bare metal and Linux environments
• Scripting experience in Python

Desired Qualifications and Skills:

• Master's degree or greater in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering
• MATLAB coding experience
