Your Impact

Where You’'ll Work

Location – Scottsdale, AZ (Primarily Remote)
This role is remote-first with no fixed onsite cadence. We do ask that you live within reasonable commuting distance of our Scottsdale hub so you can join the team in person for occasional planning sessions, workshops, or celebrations. Staying close to an Axon office lets you tap into our vibrant culture and forge stronger connections with your colleagues whenever face-to-face collaboration adds the most value.

What You’ll Do
Reports To: Engineering Manager
Direct Reports: 5-8 Software Engineers

• Ensure alignment of team objectives with organizational goals and priorities.

• Deliver new features, performance optimizations, and reliability enhancements to customers on a predictable, high-quality cadence.
• Provide dotted-line leadership for the mobile team in Vietnam—reviewing architecture, roadmaps, and release readiness while empowering their local manager for day-to-day execution.
• Partner with Product and Design to craft intuitive, resilient mobile experiences.
• Work cross-functionally with other engineering teams (Cloud, Firmware, Middleware, Other Mobile Teams) to deliver seamless integration of key components.
• Contribute to architecture discussions, perform thoughtful code and design reviews.
• Collaborate with Recruiting to attract top talent, then onboard, mentor, and develop engineers through regular 1:1s, feedback, and growth plans.
• Champion modern engineering practices—CI/CD, automated testing, and observability—and cultivate a culture of continuous improvement and ownership.

What You Bring

Must-Have

• Experience – 8+ years in mobile or software development, with at least 3 years managing engineers; demonstrated success planning and delivering multiple overlapping projects that span several months.
