Senior Software Engineering - Telecommute

Senior Software Engineer I, (Discovery)
We're explorers, pursuing society's most critical safety and justice issues with our ecosystem of devices and cloud software. We connect with candor and care, seeking out diverse perspectives from our customers, communities and each other. Today, public safety officers spend up to 2/3 of their time on the job filling out paperwork (sometimes with paper, sometimes with floppy disks). Not only is this tedious for officers, but the never-ending pile of paperwork reduces the amount of time they can spend out in the field, protecting their communities. Axon Records cuts down on paperwork so that officers can spend more time prioritizing the safety of our communities. On the Axon Records Discovery Squad, we're building a high-performance, scalable search and insights platform to help law enforcement officers find accurate, relevant information for all of the questions they have on the job. Advanced technology has automated more and more routine tasks to put officers back in the community, dramatically improving the quality and safety of our lives. Public safety officers have everything available at their fingertips- empowering them to seamlessly connect the dots and get the answers they need, when they need them, to most effectively protect life. As a Senior Engineer on the Discovery Squad, you'll work closely with software engineers, product managers and designers to ensure the Records data is easy for users to locate and analyze. You'll work on major technical projects with large data volumes, lead the implementation of new features, and help shape our team culture and engineering processes. Join us to work with a passionate, mission-driven group of folks who want to positively impact the lives of first responders and those that they serve.
Location: This role is based out of our Seattle or Boston office 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.
