Chief of Staff

Join Axon and be a Force for Good.

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.

Your Impact

The Chief of Staff to Axon's COO/CFO is a high-output role that sits at the center of both the company's financial strategy and global operations- a scope that necessitates sounds judgment, strategic planning, and the ability to move fast without losing detail.

In this role, you will manage a high volume of competing priorities with precision. You will work directly with the COO/CFO to translate information into insights, advise on action, and translate complex financial and operational context into clear direction for the teams you work with.

This is a role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, has operated in demanding environments, and knows how to bring structure to complexity.

What You'll Do

Reports Into: Brittany Bagley, CFO/COO

Location: This role is based out of our San Francisco, CA office located in Presidio and follows a hybrid schedule. We rely on in-person collaboration and ask that team members work onsite Tuesdays through Fridays, with the flexibility to work remotely on Mondays, unless there is an approved workplace accommodation. We believe that connection fuels innovation, and our in-office culture is designed to foster meaningful teamwork, mentorship, and shared success.

• Serve as a strategic thought partner to the COO/CFO, helping to set priorities, sharpen decisions, and ensure alignment across finance and operations leadership
• Own and orchestrate key operating cadences- including M/QBRs, leadership offsites, hackathons, org-wide engagement, and cross-functional planning- ensuring they are purposeful, well-prepared, and drive real outcomes
• Lead preparation of board materials, earnings communications, and executive presentations, synthesizing complex financial and operational narratives into clear, compelling content
• Manage internal and external media engagements for the CFO/COO, including media interviews, conference appearances, customer events, and other public-facing moments
• Drive internal communications and organizational engagement on behalf of the CFO/COO- including authoring newsletters, content-creating, coordinating quarterly all-hands, and designing creative ways to recognize and engage with a diverse organization
• Act as a force multiplier across the C-suite and business unit leadership: anticipating needs, connecting dots across functions, and keeping high-priority initiatives moving
• Identify and close organizational gaps- whether in process, communication, or execution- before they become problems

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in a high-performance environment- investment banking, management consulting, corporate finance, or a prior Chief of Staff role in a large technology or financial services organization
• Prior Chief of Staff experience strongly preferred; candidates with equivalent operational and strategic exposure at the executive level will be considered
• A strong finance foundation- you understand financial statements, operating models, and how financial decisions connect to business outcomes
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills; you can write a tight board narrative, a crisp all-hands script, and a clear executive email- and you know the difference between all three
• High comfort operating without a clear playbook. You define your own priorities, manage up effectively, and know when to ask for direction versus when to just move
• A natural collaborator with strong executive presence
• Superb organizational instincts. You run multiple workstreams in parallel, nothing falls through the cracks, and you make the people around you sharper
• Deep discretion and sound judgment; you handle sensitive information with maturity and represent the office of the COO/CFO with professionalism at every level
• A commitment to leveraging AI for good and experience working with tools like Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT
