In-flight entertainment and communications systems for global airlines
Panasonic Avionics designs and deploys inflight entertainment and communications (IFEC) platforms for airlines worldwide. The company is actively migrating legacy on-premises systems to AWS (Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform) while maintaining a heavy engineering footprint (89 of 132 open roles) — a signal they're modernizing their core platform stack. Tech choices (Spring Boot, Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB) point to a shift toward containerized, cloud-native services, while pain points around legacy system modernization and global standardization reflect the complexity of serving 300+ airline customers with divergent requirements.
