Join Axon and be a Force for Good.
At Axon, we’re on a mission to Protect Life. We’re explorers, pursuing society’s most critical safety and justice issues with our ecosystem of devices and cloud software. Like our products, we work better together. We connect with candor and care, seeking out diverse perspectives from our customers, communities and each other. Life at Axon is fast-paced, challenging and meaningful. Here, you’ll take ownership and drive real change. Constantly grow as you work hard for a mission that matters at a company where you matter.
Your Impact
This isn't a relationship management role. It's an ownership role. Sharp. Adaptable. Unstoppable. As a Mission Engineer II, you'll work directly alongside public safety agencies to turn real operational challenges into working technical solutions.
You'll spend time with the people doing the work, understand how the agency operates, identify problems worth solving, and use Axon tools, AI, automation, data, and the broader Axon ecosystem to build against them.
Building is the core of the role, but customer needs come first. Because you're embedded with the agency, you'll also become a go-to technical resource who understands their Axon environment and helps them navigate critical needs when they arise. You may help quarterback an upcoming deployment, coordinate a complex technical issue, or connect the right Axon teams around an agency priority.
You won't replace Support, Deployment, Product, or other teams. You'll bring technical continuity, help connect the dots, and use what you learn to identify the next opportunity to build something better. Mission Engineers don't measure success by activity. They measure it by what gets built, what gets used, and what changes because of it.
What You’ll Do
Location: On-site at a customer agency, with travel throughout the United States. Multiple locations are available, including Tampa, Miami, Orlando, St. Lucie, Pasco and Pinellas, FL; Baton Rouge, LA; Oklahoma City, OK; Atlanta, GA; Albany, New York City and Saratoga, NY; Colorado Springs, CO; Chicago, IL; Nashville and Memphis, TN; Grand Rapids, MI; College Station, TX; Washington, DC; Boise, ID; Morrisville, NC; Albuquerque, NM; Vancouver, Canada; and select remote opportunities in Virginia.
Reports To: Manager or Senior Manager of Mission Engineering
