You will partner with other Program Managers in the XR team to develop team process and bring it to life. These processes will be used daily in our operations as we continue to grow the team.

You will partner with our professional services team to support the product deployments, improve our out-of-box experience with hardware, and work collaboratively with the team to ensure departments are supported with the on-site VR deployments. You will also engage with T&E and RMA teams to support upcoming field trials and identify improvements to the business, partnering with the RMA teams.

Our end-state for you is to ensure our customers receive a world-class product, our internal teams are supported to deploy the product correctly, Axon VR events are smoothly executed, and our VR team is supported in daily operational aspects which increases the efficiency of project planning and process development.
