D-Fend Solutions (D-Fend Inc.) is a premier counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) technology enterprise, headquartered in Ra'anana, Israel, with US headquarters in McLean, Virginia. Founded in 2017 by Zohar Halachmi, Yaniv Benbenisti, and Assaf Monsa, the company develops non-kinetic, radio frequency (RF) cyber-driven anti-drone systems engineered by experts from elite military intelligence units.
Scope:
As a Systems Engineer at D-Fend, you will bridge the gap between high-level concepts and real-world execution. You will lead multi-system features from initial idea to release, acting as the key integrator across multiple internal systems developed by our various R&D teams, while also bridging the technical gap with external vendors to bring our unified technology to life in the field.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead complex, multi-system features and platforms from initial concept through design, implementation, and release.
- Analyse, define, and debug complex system behaviours, state machines, algorithms, and event-response logic (including radio link budget considerations).
- Define requirements and guide multi-disciplinary teams-spanning both our internal engineering groups (SW, HW, Modem, DSP, FPGA) and external vendors-through implementation, debugging, and integration.
- Lead the integration of internal subsystems and optimize the integration of external vendor technologies.
- Perform independent, hands-on debugging using Python or Matlab and log analysis tools.
- Actively participate in, guide, and lead lab and field testing, validation, and system optimization both in the lab and in outdoor environments.
Requirements:
- B.Sc/M.Sc degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science or a related technical discipline from a recognized university.
- A minimum of 12 years of experience in radio-based systems, with At least 5 years of experience in a specialized role (e.g., Communication Systems Engineer, RF System Engineer, Military Systems Engineer, or Algorithm Engineer).
- Strong hands-on experience with radio-based systems, RF test equipment, and integration processes.
- Hands-on experience with the acceptance and integration process of radio-based systems.
- Proficiency in scripting and data analysis tools (Python, MATLAB, and Excel).
- Deep understanding of radars, wireless communications, or other multidisciplinary radio-based systems.
- A strong team player with excellent communication skills, a "can-do" attitude, and a passion for solving highly complex, real-world problems.
- Advantage: Experience with cyber-based systems or military systems, such as SIGINT, ELINT, EW or radars.
