Technical Product Recruiter
Your Impact
As a Technical Product Recruiter at Axon, you’ll be the driving force behind hiring the product talent that powers our mission of protecting life and building safer communities. You’ll own full-cycle recruiting for Product Management, Product Design, Product Operations, and adjacent product-facing roles within our R&D organization—partnering directly with Product leaders to build teams shaping Axon’s most impactful technologies.
In this role, you’re not just filling roles—you’re advising the business. You’ll act as a strategic thought partner to senior Product leaders, bringing market intelligence, talent insights, and data-backed recommendations to every conversation. Your ability to deeply understand product disciplines, influence stakeholders, and deliver an exceptional candidate experience will be critical to scaling Axon’s product organization.
This role is based out of our Scottsdale HQ and follows a hybrid schedule. We rely on in-person collaboration and ask that team members work onsite Tuesdays through Fridays, with the flexibility to work remotely on Mondays, unless there is an approved workplace accommodation. We believe that connection fuels innovation, and our in-office culture is designed to foster meaningful teamwork, mentorship, and shared success.

What You Bring
- Experience: 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with at least 3 years focused on product recruiting within R&D or technology organizations. In-house experience strongly preferred; agency experience is a plus.
