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

As a Senior UCR Specialist, you’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring Axon’s public safety records management system remains at the forefront of federal, state, and local crime reporting standards.

You’ll lead high-visibility deployments, design new standards and playbooks, and serve as a trusted advisor across the organization. This is a hands-on leadership role where deep technical expertise meets policy-driven innovation to enhance the safety, accuracy, and accountability of public safety reporting nationwide.

Axon has led the global effort to protect life through electric weapons, body cameras, a number of real-time sensors, public safety software products and AI tools. Axon is uniquely positioned to tie together every aspect of an incident in order to help law enforcement agencies better prepare for what might happen, respond efficiently and effectively, deliver justice, ensure the well-being of their officers, and increase the safety of communities. Working together with our customers and product teams, you will build the foundation for Axon’s outcome-oriented data efforts.
