Working at Honeywell is about developing solutions that improve safety, reliability, productivity, and sustainability while creating dynamic career opportunities across different fields and industries.

As a Senior Quality Engineer within Honeywell Industrial Automation’s HSS business, you will apply deep quality-engineering expertise to improve product and process performance, strengthen compliance, and enhance customer satisfaction. You will partner with Engineering, Operations, Sourcing, Supplier Quality, Product Management, and other functions to identify risk, resolve complex quality issues, and embed prevention-based practices across the product life cycle.

For the first 90 days, New Hires must be prepared to work 100% onsite, Monday-Friday.

In this role, you will improve the quality and reliability of HSS products by ensuring customer, regulatory, statutory, and Honeywell requirements are translated into effective controls. You will lead structured problem solving, use data to identify systemic opportunities, and drive corrective and preventive actions that reduce defects, escapes, warranty exposure, and cost of poor quality.
