Job Description:
Our mission is to protect life
We're on a mission to make the world a safer place by solving big
problems and addressing the public safety challenges of our time.
From our company's inception, building the TASER device, to a full
suite of hardware and software solutions, we are focused on
providing Public Safety customers with state-of-the-art devices and
services they need to successfully serve and protect our
communities. In the next few years, we're going to eliminate the
burden of paperwork in policing, so officers can spend more time
building relationships and serving in their communities. We'll put
video at the heart of police records, so our justice system can get
to the truth faster. And we won't stop innovating until the bullet
is rendered obsolete.
Your Impact
You aren't like everybody else. You aim a little higher. You reach
a little further. Your experience is much broader than just a
previous career or a few past jobs. You've been listening,
learning, and paying attention to recent events, which have
demonstrated to you why building world-class technology for Public
Safety is so important. You do more because it matters to you. And
when it comes to looking for that next opportunity, you want to do
work that matters to others.
At Axon, we have set out a moonshot goal to reduce gun-related
deaths between the police and the public by 50% in 10 years. We
believe Virtual Reality training is a key component in delivering
on this goal by helping officers build a more robust skill set in
de-escalation and decision-making for the variety of situations
they will encounter in their careers. As a result, we are seeing a
pivotal change in how training is conducted within public safety.
Agencies are recognizing that current approaches to training are
inefficient and costly. We seek to revolutionize and redefine how
training is performed using virtual and augmented reality
technologies. The demand and interest in this training are growing
rapidly, and we are looking for a dedicated and proven Senior
Product Manager to join our Virtual Reality team.
To deliver on this goal, there are two key components: delivering
meaningful VR applications and training content that drive changes
in outcomes and behaviors, and providing VR hardware that enables
the desired software experiences and offers a more true-to-life
training experience. In this role, you will be a part of the Axon
VR hardware team, responsible for Axon VR's Core Hardware
Experience. This encompasses the infrastructure and ongoing
management tasks or items that help ensure our VR system is ready
to use whenever agencies need it. This ranges from our Out-of-Box
Experience (OOBE) to device setup, storage, charging, connectivity,
maintenance, and updates.
We envision a world where Axon training solutions are easier to set
up and manage than industry alternatives, with intuitive solutions
for charging, updating, and organizing. Agencies should not need to
hire entire departments to manage their VR program. Trainers and
training time are limited, so transition efficiency is important.
Agencies should be able to get users in and out of a scenario
quickly and move to the next person without hassle. As we add
additional peripherals to our portfolio, we need to ensure they are
easy to manage and do not add too much complexity. On top of that,
we want Axon VR Training to deliver a premium and reliable
experience, across packaging, device setup, charging, pairing, and
use in training.
You will also be responsible for partnering with others within the
organization to define a data connectivity strategy for VR, focused
on ensuring agencies have the best possible and most consistent
experience when using our training offering. We firmly believe that
VR training should be accessible anywhere, at any time. The
challenge is that internet bandwidth and network infrastructure can
vary from agency to agency, and precinct to precinct, at times
providing a diminished experience.
We expect this to be a very competitive market, which means we have
to innovate as a team. You should be open to researching and
solving completely new technology challenges that nobody has solved
before. You will join an interdisciplinary team that is tackling
the biggest challenges in public safety training head-on, including
immersive VR-based empathy and de-escalation training to help
officers engage with the communities they serve with greater
awareness and safety. As we seek to revolutionize how training is
implemented within public safety, we want you to join us!
