Operating in an embedded capacity for the long haul, the professional combines technical expertise, builder instincts, and executive presence to help agencies transform their operations using Axon's ecosystem.

Assess workflows onsite, identify friction points, define solutions, and establish trusted relationships with agency leadership and operational stakeholders.
Maintain a consistent onsite presence of approximately 3 to 4 days per week while tracking customer success metrics.

Requirements

Typically brings 8+ years of experience in customer-facing technical roles, program management, operational transformation, or complex deployment environments.

Strong communication skills capable of engaging effectively with technical teams and senior stakeholders, including command staff in mission-critical environments.
Full ownership mentality suited for navigating ambiguous, fast-changing environments with competing priorities.
Ability to obtain and maintain CJIS compliance while adhering strictly to required security standards.
