You will own the outcome the program exists to deliver and serve as a trusted partner to product, engineering and senior leadership. You will partner with engineering and product management to drive programs from inception through design, development, deployment and post-production. You will translate early ideas and proposals into executable plans with clear requirements, milestones, dependencies and success metrics. At this level, the problems we hand you may not have a clear requirements document, a defined owner or an obvious path forward. You will identify problems and opportunities before requirements exist, bring structure to ambiguity, build alignment across teams and drive commitments that move the work forward. You will own end-to-end technical requirements, help engineering teams evaluate architectural trade-offs and ensure decisions are made with scalability, reliability, availability and long-term maintainability in mind. The Real-Time Operations team builds, deploys and maintains products for emergency responders, specifically built around the Axon Fusus platform. Because every second counts for our customers, any production outage, functional regression or performance degradation that lasts even a few minutes can have a real impact. The ideal candidate builds trusted relationships across a wide range of personalities, holds people to their commitments, and has the technical credibility to be respected by engineers and the executive presence to be heard by senior leaders. **Location:** Seattle **Reports to:** Sr. Director of Technical Program Management **Direct reports:** None ### What You'll Do - Own highly complex technical programs across teams and pillars, from strategy and early definition through launch and post-production. - Translate ambiguous business and technical problems into clear requirements, plans, milestones, dependencies and measurable outcomes. - Own program plans, schedules, resourcing and change management while holding teams accountable for committed deliverables. - Foresee, manage and mitigate risks acro
