About The Position

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 As a Supply Chain Intern at REGENT, you'll work closely with our supply chain teams to support supplier engagement, data management, and purchasing operations. You'll gain hands-on experience across the full supply chain lifecycle - from supplier research and qualification to purchase order execution, logistics coordination, and cost tracking. This role is ideal for someone who's detail-oriented, analytical, and excited to learn how an advanced manufacturing company builds and manages resilient supply chains for cutting-edge 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!
