About The Position

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 Step into a role where your deals don’t just hit quota—they make history. At Axon, we’re on a mission to protect life and make the world a safer place, and as an Account Executive on our Corrections Sales Team, you’ll play a pivotal role in transforming how state correctional systems operate. This is the team that closed the largest single customer booking in our core domestic sales org last year—and we’re just getting started. You’ll lead complex, enterprise-wide sales efforts that bring modern technology, data, and connected workflows into historically under-innovated environments. This isn’t transactional selling—you’ll build executive-level relationships, shape a compelling vision for change, and guide agencies from legacy systems to fully integrated ecosystems that improve safety, accountability, and outcomes. If you’re looking to operate at the intersection of high-impact mission and high-stakes enterprise sales—with the visibility, complexity, and deal size to match—this is where you do it. You’ll succeed by delivering a compelling point of view: why change is urgent, why it matters now, and why Axon is the partner to make it happen.
