Job Description

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

As a Software Engineer on Axon’s Fleet & Device Management team, you’ll help define how agencies manage and interact with Axon devices in the field and in vehicles. You will work with a talented, fast-paced team focused on building and evolving the Android applications that power Axon Device Manager, Fleet Android, and Axon Device Checkout for phones and tablets.

You’ll solve challenging problems and provide simple, elegant solutions around device provisioning, configuration, health monitoring, video and telemetry workflows, and officer workflows in the vehicle—all of which have a direct impact on increasing transparency and protecting truth.

Here, you’ll collaborate with engineers, product managers, and designers to build best‑in‑class mobile software that integrates tightly with Axon’s devices and cloud services, and that is relied on in mission‑critical environments every day.
If you’re driven by solving intricate technical problems, passionate about Android development, and ready to play a crucial role in shaping products that redefine public safety, we want you on our team.
