About Axon 911

Axon 911 brings together Prepared and Carbyne under Axon. Together, we are creating the only platform that combines modern 911 infrastructure with an AI intelligence layer—helping public safety agencies move faster, make better decisions, and deliver better outcomes in the moments that matter most.911 is the backbone of public safety, yet the professionals behind it have long been held back by outdated technology. Axon 911 is here to change that. Joining this team means more than taking a job—it means helping shape the future of emergency response and building a safer, more connected world.

Your Impact

We are seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer, Communications​ Hardwareto own the mechanical design and development of next-generation, mission-critical hardware from concept through high-volume production.

Join us as a founding member of our Axon 911 hardware team, you will have significant ownership across the mechanical development lifecycle, helping establish the technical foundation and engineering standards needed to scale compact, ruggedized, wireless-connected devices that public safety professionals carry and rely on in the field every day.

You will partner closely with Industrial Design (ID), Electrical Engineering (EE), Radio Frequency (RF) Engineering, Product Management, and manufacturing teams to translate product requirements into robust, production-ready mechanical designs. You will balance competing constraints across durability, sealing, antenna and RF performance, thermal management, battery integration, size, weight, ergonomics, and industrial design while driving designs from early concepts through mass production.

What You’ll Do

Mechanical Design & Development

• Own mechanical design from concept through high-volume production for compact, ruggedized, wireless-connected hardware.
• Develop mechanical designs that balance product requirements across size, weight, durability, sealing, thermal performance, RF performance, manufacturability, and cost.
• Design complex mechanical components and assemblies using plastic injection molding, stamped metal, die casting, machining, adhesives, and bonded joints.
• Build and analyze high-fidelity proof-of-concept prototypes and validate designs through FEA, tolerance analysis, and physical testing.

Ruggedization & Product Integration

• Design for demanding field environments, including drop, shock, vibration, long-term durability, and IP66/IP68 dust and water ingress protection.
• Own electro-mechanical integration across PCB/PCBA, flex circuits, batteries, antennas, and other internal components.
• Develop passive thermal-management solutions to dissipate heat from electronics while maintaining compact product form factors.
