The posting, as REGENT wrote it
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.
Backed by leading investors and powered by a team of passionate, forward-thinking engineers, builders, and operators, we’re now scaling from a breakthrough prototype to full production - and building the team to make it happen.
ROLE OVERVIEW
REGENT is building a new category of vehicle, and the spaces where our teams work need to keep pace with us. As our Facilities Maintenance Associate, you'll play a hands-on role in keeping our growing facilities functional, organized, and ready for the work happening inside them every day.
Your primary focus will be day-to-day maintenance, repairs, and hands-on workplace support across three nearby REGENT facilities. You'll tackle basic carpentry, drywall, painting, and mechanical repairs; assemble and move furniture and equipment; set up spaces for meetings and events; and jump in when something around our facilities needs to be fixed, moved, installed, or made better.
This is a role for someone who enjoys being on their feet, working with their hands, and seeing the immediate impact of what they accomplish. In a growing startup, the needs of our spaces change quickly, so we're looking for someone who is resourceful, dependable, comfortable shifting priorities, and willing to jump in wherever needed.
When our facilities work well, our teams can stay focused on bringing Seagliders to market. You'll be an important part of making that happen every day.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Handle day-to-day maintenance and repairs. Perform basic carpentry, drywall, painting, and mechanical repairs, along with everyday facilities work such as mounting or removing screens, assembling furniture, making minor repairs, and addressing issues throughout our spaces.
- Move, build, and set up our spaces. Support furniture and equipment moves, desk setups, room reconfigurations, installations, and other hands-on projects as our teams and facilities evolve.
- Support meetings and events. Set up and break down spaces for company meetings, events, and other team needs, including room arrangements, furniture, basic AV equipment, and catering setup.
- Stay ahead of facility needs. Conduct regular walkthroughs across our three nearby locations to identify maintenance issues, safety concerns, cleanliness gaps, or other items that need attention — and address what you can before it becomes a bigger problem.

and contractors and understand that maintaining great spaces takes coordination and teamwork.
- Creative Problem Solver: You like figuring out how to fix things. You assess what's happening, work through practical solutions, and don't need every task to come with step-by-step instructions — while knowing when a problem requires additional expertise.
- Adaptable & Agile: You're comfortable in a startup where the plan for your day may change. You can shift from a repair to an urgent setup to a furniture move, prioritize what needs attention first, and still follow through on the work already in progress.
- Innovative Mindset: You notice opportunities to make our spaces and the way we maintain them better. You're curious about better tools, approaches, organization, and processes and willing to suggest improvements based on what you see doing the work every day.
WHAT WE OFFER
- Competitive compensation, including a robust equity incentive plan.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance — we cover 100% of your premiums.
- 401(k) with company matching, so you can plan for the future.
- Generous flexible time off, paid parental leave, and company-wide holiday breaks.
- Daily free catered lunches.
- Learning and professional development opportunities.
If you’re ready to take on an exciting challenge, grow with us, and make a lasting impact, we want to hear from you. Even if you don’t meet every requirement, but you see yourself contributing to our mission, we encourage you to apply! We value diverse skillsets and experiences and believe in the potential of passionate individuals to make a big impact.
