Sr Embedded Software Engineer - Avionics/EGPWS
Job Description:

When you join Honeywell, you become a member of our global team of thinkers, innovators, dreamers and doers who make the things that make the future. That means changing the way we fly, fueling jets in an eco-friendly way, keeping buildings smart and safe and even making it possible to breathe on Mars.

WHAT WERE WORKING ON:

EGPWS: The Honeywell Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) reduces the risk of controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) by providing flight crews with timely, accurate information about terrain and obstacles in the area. Honeywells EGPWS leverages sophisticated technology, aircraft inputs and proprietary algorithms to predict and provide real-time warnings of potential conflicts with obstacles or terrain, helping to ensure safe navigation and avoidance of hazards during flight

  • Additional features include SmartRunway and SmartLanding systems, developed to help flight crews avoid potential runway incursions and excursions

ROAAS: Honeywell’s Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS) is an advanced safety solution designed to enhance landing performance and operational safety for aircraft during the landing phase. The ROAAS provides critical real-time alerts to flight crews, focusing on the risk of runway overruns—situations that can occur when an aircraft does not stop before the runways end.

Join a team that supports long-term development programs and breakthrough innovations that are penetrating into all aerospace fields including the burgeoning UAM & UAS (Urban Air Mobility & Unmanned Aircraft Systems) spanets.


Responsibilities

As a Sr Advanced Software Engineer within the Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance (CN&S) organization, you will be part of a dynamic team that designs, develops and implements advanced software solutions for cutting-edge Avionics technologies. Our team is at the forefront of pioneering solutions such as the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS), Flight Management System (FMS) Datalink Communications, Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS), and state-of-the-art Radar technologies.

In this role, you will work on cutting-edge projects and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality software solutions for innovative Avionics solutions, notably EGPWS (Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Systems) and Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS). You will work on projects that involve advanced algorithms, data analytics, and real-time systems.

Key Responsibilities

This isn’t just another coding job; it’s an opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects that have a tangible impact on the world. Your work will contribute to the advancement of technologies that enhance terrain and situational awareness and help prevent controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) incidents.

  • Work closely with a passionate team of engineers and designers to create and implement forward-thinking software solutions for innovative Avionics solutions,
  • Develop, optimize and implement robust, high-quality software solutions for Avionics systems, notably for EGPWS and/or ROAAS, ensuring software meets all functional and performance requirements.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define project requirements and ensure alignment with system-level objectives.
  • Write efficient, maintainable code in programming languages like C/C++
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of software with existing systems.
  • Ensure the highest level of quality and customer satisfaction in software deliverables
  • Decompose high-level systems requirements into low-level software requirements.
  • Create, maintain and qualify software development and verification tools.
  • Stay abreast of technological advancements and integrate new practices into the development process
