About this role

The Mission Engineer position at Axon in Florida-Remote is a hands-on technical ownership role for experienced builders who want to design, deploy, and scale public safety software solutions. This position suits a self-driven professional who thrives in ambiguous environments and works directly with agencies to transform operational outcomes using Axon's technology ecosystem.

Role Overview

This position serves as the primary accountable owner of customer outcomes within strategic accounts for Axon. The professional in this role operates directly onsite approximately 3 to 4 days per week to discover agency problems, design working tools, and ensure long-term adoption. Rather than acting as a relationship coordinator, this role requires shipping real software configurations, AI agents, workflows, and integrations directly into production environments.

Key Responsibilities

Discover agency challenges onsite and translate them into buildable, compliant solutions tied directly to mission outcomes.
Design and ship working tools on Axon's platform, including AI agents, workflows, automations, integrations, and data pipelines using real data and users.
Configure, integrate, and extend DEMS, Fusus, AI Era, Records, and related systems within the agency environment.
Iterate continuously in the field until adoption sticks, documenting reusable patterns for other accounts.
Apply responsible innovation guardrails, ensuring compliance with CJIS, evidence integrity, and privacy rules.
Troubleshoot onsite issues and coordinate root-cause resolution across Product, Engineering, Support, and Services teams.
Build and deploy AI-powered workflows such as agents, prompts, RAG, and evaluations to solve defined problems.
Conduct operational transformation by assessing current workflows, identifying friction, leading QBRs, and defining success metrics.
Capture field intelligence, share insights with Product and Engineering, and identify expansion opportunities in partnership with Sales.

Requirements

Typically 8+ years of experience in customer-facing technical roles, program management, operational transformation, or complex deployment environments.
Proven builder background demonstrating shipped working automations, agents, workflows, integrations, or AI-enabled tools in customer environments.
Comfort working across diverse technical and operational domains including hardware, software, cloud, and integrated systems.
Strong communication skills capable of engaging technical teams and senior stakeholders, including command staff in mission-critical settings.
Full ownership mentality suited for ambiguous, fast-changing environments.
Ability to obtain and maintain CJIS compliance and adhere to security standards.
Former law enforcement or military experience is preferred but not required.
Experience in public safety, corrections, or mission-critical operational environments is preferred.
