About the role

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 Are you excited to build AI products that solve meaningful, real-world problems and make a positive impact at scale? As a Machine Learning Engineer at Axon , you’ll help build AI solutions that are transforming public safety and advancing our mission to Protect Life . You’ll work alongside talented ML engineers and scientists to bring new AI capabilities to products such as Fleet, Draft One, Axon Air, VR, and more —supporting the training, evaluation, testing, and deployment of machine learning models across Axon devices and the cloud. You’ll be part of a multidisciplinary team tackling challenging problems across a broad range of AI domains, from computer vision and speech recognition to natural language understanding and generative AI . You’ll work at the intersection of cutting-edge research and real-world product development, where AI systems need to be accurate, scalable, secure, responsible, and dependable in the moments that matter. This role also offers significant room to grow your technical scope and influence . You’ll have opportunities to explore emerging AI technologies, work across multiple product areas, learn from experienced engineers and scientists, and take ownership of increasingly complex systems. As the team and Axon’s AI capabilities grow, you’ll have the opportunity to shape technical direction, mentor others, and develop into a technical leader. What You’ll Do Location: Hybrid from our office in Seattle, Washington. Reports to: Manager, Machine Learning Engineering • Turn emerging AI research into real products. Partner with scientists, engineers, and product managers to rapidly prototype new ideas, build proof-of-concepts, and help determine which technologies can become the next generation of Axon AI experiences. • Build AI systems that operate at real-world scale. Architect and develop the infrastructure needed to train, evaluate, deploy, monitor, and continuously improve models running across Axon’s cloud and device ecosystem. • Work across the modern AI stack. Tackle engineering challenges spanning model training and fine-tuning, large-scale evaluation, inference optimization, data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and production ML systems. • Help build the platform behind Axon AI. Design reusable platforms, infrastructure, and developer tooling that make it faster and easier for scientists and engineers to experiment, evaluate ideas, and move models from research into production. • Advance how we build with generative AI. Explore techniques for evaluating, fine-tuning, optimizing, and operating large models, including approaches such as model distillation, quantization, and scalable evaluation. • Solve challenging edge-and-cloud ML problems. Help bridge the gap between powerful cloud-based AI and models running in resource-constrained environments, balancing model quality, latency, reliability, privacy, and cost. • Build secure and privacy-preserving AI systems. Architect solutions that enable models to continuously improve while maintaining rigorous standards for security, privacy, and responsible use of data. • Collaborate closely with ML scientists. Translate state-of-the-art research into robust engineering systems a
