Job Description
<div class="content-intro"><h4><strong>Join Axon and be a Force for Good.</strong></h4>
<p>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.<br><br>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.</p></div><h4><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Global Talent Acquisition </span></h4>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">This Is Not a Back-Office Recruiting Role</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">This is a front-line, high-impact role for recruiters who know how to win, who can partner with senior leaders, and who want their work to matter beyond filling seats. At Axon, we don’t recruit for “jobs.” We recruit for a mission: to protect life, build trust, and create safer communities. We move fast, we think big, and we expect our recruiters to bring swagger, boldness, and grit to the table. If you’re the kind of recruiter who thrives on hard searches, strong opinions, data-backed decisions, and telling leaders the <em>truth</em>—you’ll fit right in.</span></p>
<hr>
<h4><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Your Impact</span></h4>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">As a Senior GTM Recruiter at Axon, you will own full-cycle recruiting for high-impact sales roles that directly fuel our growth and mission. You’ll act as a talent advisor, not an order-taker—shaping role profiles, influencing hiring decisions, and building pipelines that scale with the business. You’ll partner with driven sales leaders, operate with urgency and accountability, and help raise the bar for what “great” looks like across our sales organization. Recruiting here is a team sport, but ownership matters—and you’ll have plenty of it. </span></p>
<hr>
<h4><span style="text-decoration: underline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">What You’ll Do</span></h4>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Location: This role is based out of our Washington DC (Sterling, VA) office 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.</span></p>
