A career in Information Technology with a focus in Corporate Honeywell
Technology Solutions Lab (HTSL) is an area integral to Honeywell. HTSL provides
technology, product, and business solutions while meeting global standards of
quality, innovation, and lifetime performance. Some of the applications include
real-time process control, embedded real-time systems, system software, and
engineering tools. Research teams explore advanced technologies and frontiers
in software to support Honeywell units worldwide and develop new
technology-based products.
The engineering services initiative aims to provide best-in-class product
and component analysis, design, and prototyping in mechanical engineering, and
total engineering capability in electronics hardware.
HTSL is ISO 9001 TickIT certified and operates at a SEI-CMM Level 5 maturity
with robust systems in place. It uses Six Sigma and Design for Six Sigma (DFSS)
techniques to improve output in all areas. It recently earned PCMM Maturity

Career Path
Career paths within the Honeywell Technology Solutions Lab vary greatly.
Engineers with graduate, postgraduate, doctoral, or management educational
qualifications join HTSL as individual contributors in the software
programming, testing, research & development, or analytics business units.
After gaining considerable experience and having a favorable performance
rating, they can choose to go into a leadership role for technology, people, or
process within their respective domains. From there, they can continue to grow.
Successful leaders and experts can ultimately become strategic leaders and
chief engineers.
Individuals may also move horizontally across roles. People who are
currently in the role of leaders can also start afresh as individual
contributors in a new technical area, domain, or function. One example is of a
Mechanical Engineer at the Indian Institute of Technology. He began his career
as a Software Development Engineer in the Home & Building Controls
(H&BC) business for Automation & Control Solutions (ACS). Within two
years, he started leading a team of development engineers and later began
leading entire project teams. His overall technical expertise in business and
people management skills allowed him to become the head of the H&BC
business that culminated in leading the entire ACS business unit at HTSL.
