Senior System Integration Engineer - Kinetic Interception Systems

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 seeking a Senior System Integration Engineer to lead R&D integration of advanced kinetic interception systems with a strong focus on software-driven capabilities. This role combines deep system-level thinking with hands-on development in Computer Vision, embedded Linux environments, and real-time interaction with ST microprocessor-based subsystems. You will operate at the intersection of algorithms, embedded control, and operational deployment—ensuring mission-ready performance under real-world conditions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end R&D integration of kinetic interception systems across software, embedded, and hardware domains
• Develop and integrate Computer Vision pipelines (Python/C++) on Linux-based platforms for real-time detection, tracking, and decision support
• Design and implement C++ software modules interacting with ST microcontroller-based subsystems (control, telemetry, safety logic)
• Architect and maintain robust Linux environments (drivers, services, Docker, performance optimization) for embedded computing platforms
• Define and execute system-level validation plans for real-time, safety-critical systems
• Perform deep debugging across software stacks and hardware layers, including communication protocols and low-level interfaces
• Integrate high-speed sensors, electro-optical payloads, and control units into a unified operational system
• Conduct root cause analysis during lab integration, environmental testing, and live interception trials
• Collaborate closely with algorithm, firmware, hardware, and mechanical teams to ensure deterministic and reliable system behavior
• Support operational deployments and field trials in demanding environments
  
  

• 5+ years of experience in system integration within defense, autonomous, or real-time embedded systems - Must
• Proven Python development experience for Computer Vision, data processing, or system tooling - Must
• Hands-on experience integrating with ST microcontrollers or similar embedded MCU platforms (C/C++) - Must
• Experience developing or integrating Computer Vision algorithms in real-time systems
• Experience with embedded communication protocols (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN, Ethernet)
• Strong debugging skills across software and hardware layers
• High ownership mindset and ability to operate in fast-paced, mission-driven environments
• Willingness to support intensive field trials and operational validation activities
• Deep understanding of Linux internals, services, networking, and performance optimization - Advantage
