Cybersecurity Specialist

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.

Overview Building a new category of vehicle means building a company people can trust with sensitive technology, systems, and data. As REGENT's Cybersecurity Specialist , you'll help protect that foundation by supporting the day-to-day security operations that keep our environment secure as we scale. This is a hands-on role in an evolving, fast-moving startup environment. You'll monitor and investigate security alerts, manage vulnerabilities through remediation, help keep systems aligned to our security standards, and support incident response, identity and access, data governance, and security compliance. You'll work closely with the Director, IT & Infrastructure, taking ownership of day-to-day security work while partnering and escalating when issues require broader context or judgment. At REGENT, our systems and processes are evolving alongside the company. We're looking for someone who is comfortable learning as they go, adapting to changing priorities, and looking for ways to make the way we work better - whether that's improving a process, strengthening documentation, automating a repetitive task, or catching a security gap before it becomes a bigger problem. As we scale toward CMMC Level 2 certification and manufacturing , your work will directly strengthen our security posture and compliance readiness. If you're curious, detail-oriented, and excited to grow your security expertise while helping protect the technology bringing Seagliders to market, we'd love to hear from you.

Run day-to-day security monitoring. Monitor endpoint detection and response (EDR) tooling and security alerts, triaging, investigating, resolving, and escalating findings as appropriate. Drive vulnerability management. Support the full lifecycle from scanning and prioritization through remediation tracking, verification, and reporting, partnering with teams across REGENT to get issues resolved. Execute incident response. Carry out detection, containment, eradication, and recovery procedures in coordination with the Director, IT & Infrastructure, escalating higher-severity or ambiguous incidents as needed. Keep systems hardened. Maintain configuration baselines, hardened builds, authorized software and service tracking, and drift monitoring against approved standards — and help drive findings through remediation and verification. Support identity and access. Help administer our identity and access management environment, support joiner/mover/leaver workflows and automated provisioning, and assist with privileged access and routine access reviews. Support data governance and resilience. Help apply data classification, data loss prevention (DLP), and retention controls; coordinate with Facilities where physical security systems intersect with company systems; and support backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity testing. Improve security as we scale. Look for opportunities to strengthen processes, automate repetitive work, improve documentation, and make our day-to-day security operations more effective as REGENT grows. Keep documentation audit-ready. Maintain accurate records of
