Join a company that’s reintroducing itself to the aviation community we’ve helped advance for more than a century. At Honeywell Aerospace (NASDAQ: HONA), we’re launching as an independent, publicly traded aerospace and defense company built on a legacy of operational excellence and mission-focused execution.

With our systems on board 90% of the world’s aircraft, your work here has reach that’s rare to find anywhere else.

Focusing on our customers, investing in innovation, and building a culture of accountability and performance is how we’re shaping what comes next.

Every horizon. Every mission. Every day.

• Engines & Power Systems provides the propulsion, auxiliary power and electrical systems that keep those aircraft flying
• Control Systems supplies the thermal and motion control systems that support takeoff, landing and the safety of everyone on board

With approximately 58,000 employees worldwide and net sales of $17.4B in 2025, we are also advancing systems for autonomous and supersonic platforms — bringing the same focus on safety and efficiency to the next era of flight. Explore our businesses: https://www.honeywellaerospace.com
