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.
Contribute to AIoT Device-level Firmware Infrastructure as part of the Platform & Firmware development team and advance Axon’s mission to Protect Life. The Platform Firmware supports all of Axon’s Camera-based products, Robotics, key ownership of the Cellular LTE Link, Automated Test Systems for organizational Engineering Excellence, and is always at the fore-front of Innovation with Hardware Engineering for new programs.
The first priority of your impact is to be a member of the Platform & Firmware Battery sub-team with a critical eye towards Battery Safety & Thermals, Battery Health, Battery Charging, Runtime Profiling, Fleet-wide Metrics and all advanced Battery Firmware logic across Axon’s products. Also, innovating and instrumenting Automated Testing fixtures to protect new releases from regressions across many permutations. With few exceptions, the majority of Axon’s products are Battery-powered and we put significant emphasis on Battery Traits.
Our team builds with AI in the loop. We use AI coding and data-analysis tools every day to compress routine work, and spend the time saved on what demands an expert: battery safety logic, bench validation and root-cause decisions. You own the correctness of everything you ship, however it was written.
The types of firmware development environments where our most challenging battery work lies is on complex System-on-Chips (SoC), Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMIC), USB-C intricacies, and working with the vendors who own the Battery Fuel Gauges. Our team prefers to work in C, C++, Rust, Python and Yocto. Golang experience is a bonus.
Location: Preferred locale is Scottsdale, AZ or Seattle, WA.
[Candidates near Boston, MA; Brussels, Belgium; Tampere, Finland; or Greater Romania may also be considered upon request]
