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.
As a Software Engineer II on the Evidence Local team, you’ll help build and evolve Axon’s on-premises and hybrid digital evidence platform, used by agencies that require full control over highly sensitive data.
Evidence Local underpins how video, audio, and other digital evidence is securely ingested, processed, stored, and retrieved in regulated environments such as law enforcement, government, and defense. These are mission-critical systems where reliability, security, and correctness are essential.
This is a hands-on backend role focused on building and modernising distributed systems and APIs. While parts of the platform are built in different backend languages, the team prioritises strong backend engineering fundamentals over expertise in any single stack. Engineers regularly work across multiple technologies, collaborating closely to modernise existing services, design new capabilities, and continuously improve system resilience, performance, and reliability.
Work Location
This role is based out of our London office and follows a hybrid model. We value in-person collaboration and ask team members to work onsite Tuesday through Friday, with flexibility to work remotely on Mondays (unless an approved accommodation applies). Our in-office culture is designed to support collaboration, mentorship, and shared ownership.
Don’t meet every single requirement? That's ok. At Axon, we Aim Far. We think big with a long-term view because we want to reinvent the world to be a safer, better place. We are also committed to building diverse teams that reflect the communities we serve.

If you’re excited about this role and our mission to Protect Life but your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification listed here, we encourage you to apply anyways.
