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 an Account Manager focused on Major Law Enforcement Accounts, you’ll play a key role in driving strategic growth and supporting public safety transformation across some of the largest city police departments and county sheriff’s offices in the Western U.S. Working in close partnership with a Key Account Leader, you’ll co-own revenue goals, deepen customer relationships, coordinate resources, and help ensure our solutions drive measurable outcomes.
You are a relationship builder, a proactive closer, and an expert at orchestrating cross-functional success — from initial discovery to long-term adoption. You thrive in complexity, have deep customer empathy, and can navigate the nuance of major government agency environments. Your work will directly support our mission: to protect life through transformative technology.
