Your Impact
As a Senior Product Manager for the Digital Evidence Management (DEMs) team, you will drive Axon’s third-party ecosystem strategy. We are looking for a product manager with a track record of defining and executing complex software deliverables across multiple teams, job functions, and partner organizations. This role will require deep knowledge of Axon’s products and the ability to ramp up quickly on technical specifications and requirements. You will work collaboratively with product managers, engineers, solutions architects, and our go-to-market teams to own the delivery of a high-quality, enterprise-ready system.
