Our mission is to protect life.

We’re out to make the world a safer place by solving big problems and taking on the public safety challenges of our time. From our company's inception building the TASER device to a full suite of hardware and software solutions, we are focused on providing police agencies with the state-of-the-art devices and services they need to successfully serve and protect us. In the next few years, we're going to eliminate the burden of paperwork in policing, so officers can increase the time they spend building relationships and serving in their communities. We’ll put video at the heart of the police record so our justice system can get to the truth faster. And we won't stop innovating until the bullet is rendered obsolete.

It’s a big mission, but it’s one we’ll pursue relentlessly every single day. 

Mission-Critical Cloud Services for Public Safety

Today, public safety officers spend up to 2/3 of their time on the job filling out paperwork. Not only is this tedious for officers, but the never-ending pile of paperwork reduces the amount of time they can spend out in the field, protecting their communities. That’s why we’re building Axon Records, a brand-new cloud-based web platform that cuts down on paperwork so that officers can spend more time prioritizing the safety of our communities. Because our products are mission-critical, it is of the utmost importance to have the highest bar for performance, quality, and availability.

You live and breathe automating processes, from building release tooling that enhances our build, test, and deployment of our products to driving major quality efforts like automated chaos testing to ensure our cloud products achieve a high degree of availability. You will work closely not only with other engineers in the SRE organization, but also with engineers in our product teams to drive critical solutions that impact the entire software organization.
