Your Impact As the In-Market Senior Product Manager for Germany, you will lead the definition and execution of Axon's product strategy in the German market — spanning our Digital Evidence Management (DEMs) and Devices portfolios. You will be responsible for translating the realities of Germany's public safety ecosystem into clear, actionable direction for our global product teams. You'll partner closely with the local Sales and Customer Success teams to identify opportunities, shape tenders, and drive adoption, while ensuring Product and Engineering remain aligned to what's feasible and high-impact. This is a highly autonomous role requiring a blend of market fluency, technical breadth, and disciplined execution. You'll represent Germany's needs within Axon, balancing the urgency of field operations with the rigor of product development.

Align what’s promised externally with what can be delivered internally, ensuring precision and follow-through. • Drive Tender Success: Engage early in regional tenders and RFPs to shape requirements, guide proposal strategy, and position Axon to win high-impact opportunities. • Champion Axon’s Ecosystem: Act as the regional advocate for Axon’s technology, demonstrating how our connected, cloud-first solutions transform public safety outcomes. • Travel: Travel across Germany and internationally as needed (~35%). What You'll Bring • Strategic Problem-Solving: Skilled at structuring ambiguity, identifying trade-offs, and driving alignment across diverse teams. • Technically Broad: Able to quickly understand and explain how Axon’s connected ecosystem delivers superior outcomes compared to on-premise or point solutions. • Detailed and Organized: Brings rigor to execution—tracking commitments, dependencies, and documentation to ensure follow-through. • Communication and Writing Clarity: Communicates with precision, turning complex technical or market concepts into clear, actionable narratives for different audiences. • Adaptable and Resilient: Thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment, maintaining focus and momentum through change. • 4+ years in product management or a related technical role, with direct experience engaging customers and translating field needs into product outcomes. • Proven ability to operate autonomously in complex, cross-functional environments and manage relationships with senior stakeholders. • Experience spanning both software and hardware products; familiarity with SaaS, Cloud, or IoT ecosystems is a strong plus. • Fluency in English and German required. Why You’ll Love This Role • Hands-On Impact: You’ll have ownership of the success of Axon’s portfolio across Germany, shaping product strategies and engaging directly with high-profile customers. • Exciting Challenges: Work at the intersection of technology and public safety, tackling complex issues in diverse markets. • Collaborative Environment: Join a passionate, driven team committed to enhancing safety and efficiency worldwide. • Growth Opportunities: Axon values curiosity and initiative—your contributions will directly influence our international success.
