About the role
- 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.
- Life at Axon is fast-paced, challenging and meaningful.
Responsibilities
- Define and drive the hardware architecture, including SoC/application processor selection, system partitioning, interface definition, power architecture, and subsystem integration strategy.
- Lead the development and integration of complex embedded mixed-signal hardware spanning application processors/SoCs, memory, power delivery and battery systems, audio, sensors, wired interfaces, and wireless subsystem integration.
- Personally lead critical hands-on electrical work including schematic design, board bring-up, subsystem validation, root-cause debug, characterization, and closure of key technical issues.
- Drive system-level electrical tradeoffs across performance, power, battery life, thermal behavior, mechanical packaging, EMI/EMC, reliability, manufacturability, and schedule
- Provide technical direction to internal engineers and third-party design partners, reviewing key design outputs to ensure alignment with product requirements, architecture intent, engineering standards, and program milestones.
- Work closely with PCB layout engineers to drive floorplanning, placement, stack-up direction, layout review, and physical implementation quality for dense, high-performance embedded designs.
- Develop validation strategies and personally engage in lab testing, characterization, and debug using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers, multimeters, electronic loads, and custom test fixtures.
- Partner closely with firmware, RF, mechanical, systems, product, test, NPI, quality, manufacturing, and supply chain teams to drive robust integration and strong cross-functional execution.
- Own electrical issue triage and resolution across prototype builds, validation, regulatory activities, and production ramp.
- Lead electrical design reviews, establish engineering standards and best practices, and provide technical guidance and mentorship to engineers through direct technical leadership and strong execution.
Requirements
- Deep experience with high-speed interface definition, integration, and debug, including technologies such as LPDDR, UFS, USB3.x, MIPI, Ethernet, SerDes, or similar interfaces.
- Demonstrated experience with wireless subsystem integration, including effective collaboration with RF engineering on technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Cellular, and GNSS.
Nice to have
