Recruiter sounded extremely rude in the first call. He started talking about how my current company is not so good and how Axon is the best in the world - in a arrogant manner. He initially told that its going to be introductory call, and started asking tech Qs. He was extremely disrespectful and arrogant through this entire call. No way I would consider this company as my future destination. Good luck Axon!

Other Senior Software Engineer interview reviews for Axon
System Design Technical Screening: I had a screening interview with a very biased interviewer. He did not provide an exact question or clear requirements to work on. He started with one system-related topic, then later jumped to another topic. He seemed to intentionally make the conversation convoluted and made it seem as though I was the one who did not understand the question he asked. The interviewer should have provided pre-written requirements; instead, the process felt very unfair. I spent 10 days preparing for this interview.

Question 1
Something similar to Logging System (Kafka, Apache Spark]
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Axon
Interview
The interview process involved 5 total interviews. A systems design screening followed by 4 interviews (2 coding, 1 system design, 1 behavioral), with one of them being on site. The process was overall very smooth with fast follow-up between the screen and full interview scheduling. The recruiter was transparent, and the interviewers were all involved during the interviews, following lines of thinking and asking probing questions.

A realistic data structures question with multiple parts
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Axon (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2026
Interview
The interview process was terrible, the senior recruiter had no respect to the candidate and extremely lack of professionalism. He sent me an invite which specifically marked a phone call as the meeting method. 10 minutes passed the scheduled time, there was no call and no message, I sent an email asking if he still intended to have the meeting and still no reply, after that I checked LinkedIn and found he shoot me an message asking me to join the zoom meeting, when I joined he already left. I sent him a linkedin message clarifying this, and used the original schedule email to request a new meeting on one of his available spots, still he just ghosted with no communication.
One of the worst recruiter I have met in my 20+ year career.
Coincidently some time back another recruiter from the company pinged me about opportunity with the company, I checked the company's career site, and mentioned one specific position that I was mostly interested. Afterwards there was no reply whatsoever. The repeated pattern shows the true nature how the company treats its candidate, reflecting how it would treat its employees. Absolutely terrible!
