We see leveraging the technology for training applications to be the first stop on our journey of possibilities.
You will own the build of our ecosystem of VR partners, both hardware and software, that enable us to provide a best-in-class training experience that not only differentiates Axon, but tackles key challenges with existing training approaches and current VR technology. You will not only work closely with existing strategic partners, but explore and manage new opportunities to expand the business.
You will #JoinForces with our partners to manage complex development projects to bring the results of these partnership to market, as well as working with internal teams to manage and develop hardware/software solutions. You will also work with supply chain and corporate development to solidify and deliver on the goals of these partnership.
