Join Axon and be a Force for Good.

Your Impact

The Incident Response Squad (IRS) is a full stack team at the heart of Axon Records. Their core area of ownership is both the front end of the report writing experience where officers enter data about their day to day work as well as a large portion of the data ingestion pipeline to reliably get that data into our system. For many of our user, the features that the Incident Squad owns are where they spend most of their time when using Axon Records and internally these features are the foundation on which many of our other modules are built on top of. In addition to owning this report writing interface Incident Squad also owns features related to logging officer activity, printing, 3rd party integrations, and warrants management tools.

The team regularly deals with unique and interesting challenges such as safely managing concurrent edits to documents by multiple users, balancing speed vs safety when it comes to data ingestion, rendering reports based on complex schemas which are fully customizable by each agency, and providing largely non-technical users an easy way to do their day to day work. From a technical perspective Incident Squad owns a large portion of our React front-end, as well as a good chunk of a TypeScript / GraphQL (Apollo) API, and multiple Go micro-services. The team also regularly uses other technologies and languages such as SQL, Kafka, Redis, Python, and occasionally Java.

An ideal candidate would be a full stack developer who leans more toward the backend or a backend engineer who wants to learn a little more about front end code. In addition to writing code, the Sr Software Engineer II is a role in which engineers are expected to help define a technical vision for the team as well as lead large, cross team projects. Our team is looking for someone who wants to have a large impact both inside and outside of their team, is comfortable with cross team collaboration, and wants to work closely with staff engineers to do big, impactful things and see their work define the future of Axon Records.

Join us in making a meaningful impact on the lives of law enforcement and the communities they serve, as part of a passionate and mission-driven group dedicated to innovation and excellence.
