From our employees

Jordan Testimonial Portrait
Halfway through my bachelor's degree I shifted my goals, and I was able to study both biology and computer science. This enabled me to explore career options within a technology field. Though this wasn’t my original plan, I am happy that I was able to discover my passion for working to serve others by meeting their technology needs. Furthermore, a year into my career, I am even happier that I get to do it at RTX.​
Jordan H. Digital Leadership Development Program Associate
Sidney Testimonial Portrait
I learned long ago I am only as great as those I am around. A lot of things are cylindrical. That is why happiness and positivity must be shared; you never know when it will be your time to go down, but being surrounded by greatness, you will be caught and uplifted. Being in the heart of RTX, I could not ask to be in a better place. Sidney S. Software Engineer II
Ben Testimonial Portrait
I felt a distinct sense of pride in our company when RTX turned its manufacturing expertise on a dime and went from producing weapon systems for our warfighters to manufacturing protective gear and respirators to help our first responders and medical personnel attack the COVID-19 pandemic. Ben M.  Senior Principal Systems Engineer
Kimberly Testimonial Portrait

It’s an honor to work alongside our incredibly bright and talented individuals, unified around a mission to create a safer future. I’m grateful for the opportunities and honored to be on the team. Kimberly K.  Fellow
Jennifer Testimonial Portrait
Working from home has allowed me to show my young children how to balance work and home life. I have definitely thrived in the work environment with this option. I love demonstrating my strengths as a full-time working mother. It has been great to be more available to my children and more available to coworkers on pressing issues with this setup. I plan to continue to express my excitement for the work I do as an engineer and a mother. Jennifer B.  Senior Quality Assurance Engineer
