Honeywell's Anthem Integrated Flight Deck The Future of Flight

Honeywell's Anthem Integrated Flight Deck is the industry's first cloud-connected, "always-on" Integrated Cockpit system. Built on a flexible, software-centric architecture, Anthem enables advanced communications, navigation, and surveillance capabilities across commercial, business, defense, general aviation, and the emerging Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) markets.

Anthem represents a paradigm shift in avionics—combining connectivity, autonomy, and an intuitive pilot-machine interface to deliver safer, smarter, and more customizable flight operations.
It's not just an upgrade — it's the next era of flight.

As a Principal Systems Engineer Next Generation Avionics, you will serve as a senior technical authority responsible for shaping system-level architectures, standards, and engineering strategy for highly complex, safety-critical avionics platforms. This role operates at an enterprise and program level, influencing long-term technical direction, product roadmaps, and cross-disciplinary execution.

You will partner with engineering leadership, program management, and business stakeholders to ensure architectural integrity, technical excellence, and successful delivery of current and next-generation avionics solutions.
