Description

About Regulus

Regulus is a defense-tech startup, we are developing advanced solutions that protect critical systems against operational threats. Our systems are field-proven, deployed by the IDF and global partners, and have safeguarded lives and strategic assets.

This is a unique opportunity to join a company at a pivotal growth stage and help shape its products, culture, and future.

The System Validation & Field Testing Engineer is responsible for evaluating Regulus’s integrated counter-UAS systems in operationally realistic environments to ensure they meet customer needs, performance expectations, and mission requirements. This role focuses on system-level validation, field trials, and operational performance assessment, while providing support to formal Verification teams as needed. The engineer will also conduct adversarial and stress-based testing to identify system limitations and contribute to continuous product improvement.

Role Characteristics

  • Customer-focused - Ensures that system behavior aligns with actual operational needs, not only technical specifications.
  • Adversarial mindset Capable of identifying and exploiting potential weaknesses to drive product maturity.
  • Field-oriented - Comfortable working in outdoor, dynamic, and occasionally unpredictable environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Execute system-level validation activities to confirm that solutions meet customer operational requirements across multiple product lines.
  • Plan, conduct, and document field testing, including live trials with drones, RF systems, sensors, and full integrated platforms.
  • Design and rigorously execute sophisticated adversarial (“red-team”) test scenarios focusing on exploiting system weaknesses across detection, tracking, and mitigation phases to validate operational resilience.
  • Evaluate performance and operator workflows under realistic and degraded conditions.
  • Analyze test data, logs, and telemetry to assess system behavior and identify deviations from expected performance.
  • Support Verification teams during formal testing events by supplying field data, scenario design, and operational insights.
  • Contribute to the development of validation methodologies, field evaluation frameworks, and continuous improvement processes.
  • Represent the voice of the customer during validation activities, ensuring alignment with operational requirements and user expectations.
  • Field Travel: The role requires an estimated 50% travel to outdoor field sites, primarily involving work in outdoor, dynamic environments for test campaigns.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in relevant Engineering field.
  • Minimum 3-5 years of professional experience in system validation, field testing, or mission-level assessment of complex systems.
  • Experience in system-level testing (preferably validation) of complex multidisciplinary systems (e.g., RF, embedded software, sensors, AI/ML components, or electromechanical systems).
  • Hands-on experience conducting field evaluations or operational testing in realistic or challenging environments.
  • Ability to design and execute structured testing, including planning, instrumentation, safety compliance, and data collection.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret real-world data and identify root causes.
  • Security Requirement Must be eligible to obtain (or currently hold) a security clearance.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce clear and comprehensive documentation.

  • Desired Technical Experience
  • Proven hands-on experience with drone operations and testing environments.
  • Familiarity with RF systems and relevant test equipment (e.g., spectrum analyzers).
  • Experience with basic scripting/coding (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for data processing and results analysis is preferable.
