Why we read it this way (7)
Title is 'Advanced Software Engineer' — Honeywell's internal level label, not a standard seniority band. The posting carries no Junior/Mid/Senior/Staff modifier in the conventional sense; advertised seniority is therefore treated as Unspecified, while the 5+ years requirement and scope of work support a Senior classification.
The role is based in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. External hires start fully onsite for 90 days, then transition to a hybrid (3 days onsite / 2 days remote) schedule — it is NOT a fully remote position.
U.S. person requirement (citizen, permanent resident, or protected status) is stated for export-control compliance, but no formal government security clearance is required or mentioned.
C++ is listed as 'Strong C++ or Object-oriented programming skills' in the MUST HAVE section. The 'or OOP' phrasing indicates OOP is an acceptable substitute approach, but C++ is the named technology and the primary language for this avionics role; it is treated as the hard gate.
Agile and Scrum appear together as interchangeable methodology options under MUST HAVE ('such as Agile or Scrum') — captured as a single requirement with Scrum as an alternative.
Embedded systems, multi-threading, DO-178C, and OOAD all appear exclusively under the 'WE VALUE' (preferred) section.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
