Segfault errors usually mean that you're either missing something that should've been defined or have a typo that means you're referencing something that isn't defined. From the stack trace, it shows we error looking for the minStats of a soldier type ruleset - have you defined your STR_REPTOID soldier type in a soldiers ruleset? You can't transform a soldier from one type to another that doesn't exist. Try starting by making a copy of STR_SOLDIER and renaming it STR_REPTOID and seeing if that fixes this specific crash.
Your transformations ruleset looks good, but you should comment out the "requiredItems:" line if you're going to comment out everything it contains. Leaving an empty key like that will make a YAML error. You can also write it as "requiredItems: []" instead.
If you just want to hire alien soldiers, you just need the entry in the soldiers ruleset and either give them a hiring cost or use a manufacturing project to turn captured live aliens into a soldier of that type. Both the Piratez and 40k mods have examples of multiple soldier types and manufacturing them if you want to see some ways that this is done.
Managed to do that, tinkered a bit, sadly, got another error. I also took a look that these mods you've mentioned. First things first, the error I encountered:

For the sake of easiness and hope I will not end up being sued, I used the Reptoid from "FinalModPack"
Thank you for helping me =)
