Mechanical Design Engineer - Kinetic Interception
- R&D
- Haifa
- Full-time
Description
Regulus is an agile defense-tech startup tackling the most complex challenges in counter-drone and uncrewed defense. With hundreds of combat-proven systems deployed by the IDF and global partners, we are now engineering the next generation of C-UxS (Counter-Uncrewed Systems). We leverage advanced electronic warfare and kinetic measures to detect and neutralize hostile threats. If you want to push technological boundaries while safeguarding Israel and our allies, join us at this pivotal stage of our growth. This is a unique opportunity to join a company at a pivotal growth stage and help shape its products, culture, and future.
We are looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our kinetic interception team, in which we are using racer drones for C-UAS interception. This role puts you in the heart of practical R&D of our drones and their supporting platforms.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop autonomous racing drones from concept to deployment
- Perform engineering analyses and prepare design review documentation (PDR/CDR)
- Design launchers and supporting mechanical systems and platforms
- Build, integrate, and test prototypes to validate performance and reliability
- Define and manage product structures, including product trees and configuration variants
- Drive mechanical integration of hardware components, assemblies, and wiring harnesses
Requirements
- 6-10 years of hands-on mechanical design experience, with a strong background in the Defense or Aerospace industries
- Proven experience designing UAV/drone systems (racer or high-performance platforms are a strong advantage)
- Advanced proficiency in SolidWorks, including assemblies, drawings, and PDM/PLM workflows
- Experience with CAD-based design reviews, GD&T, and engineering documentation (BOMs, product trees, ECOs)
- Hands-on experience building and testing prototypes in a lab or workshop environment
- Familiarity with mechanical integration of electronics, harnesses, and embedded hardware components
- Ability to perform or coordinate structural analysis and design validation (FEA experience — an advantage)
- Experience designing launchers, deployment mechanisms, or similar electromechanical systems - an advantage
- Strong ability to work independently in a fast-paced, startup R&D environment
