Your Impact

As an Account Manager focused on Major Law Enforcement Accounts, you’ll play a key role in driving strategic growth and supporting public safety transformation across some of the largest State Patrol Agencies within the U.S. Working in close partnership with a Key Account Leader, you’ll co-own revenue goals, deepen customer relationships, coordinate resources, and help ensure our solutions drive measurable outcomes.

You thrive in complexity, have deep customer empathy, and can navigate the nuance of major government agency environments. Your work will directly support our mission: to protect life through transformative technology.

Operate with Excellence

  • Deliver with clarity, urgency, and a high level of ownership from pipeline to post-sale success.


What You'll Bring
