Department Overview

On any given day, every moment matters to someone, somewhere. And every moment, Motorola Solutions’ innovations, products, and services play essential roles in people’s lives. We help firefighters see around buildings and police officers see around street corners. We keep utility workers connected and visible to each other with real-time voice and data communication across the smart grid. We provide the situational awareness first responders need when a moment brings catastrophe. We help people be their best in their moments that matter.

Our IT organization isn’t just here to support our business. We’re here to reinvent it – by changing how our customers, partners, and employees interact with our company. To do that, we’re looking for people who bring great ideas and who make our partners’ ideas better. Intellectually curious advisors (not order takers) who focus on outcomes to creatively solve business problems. People who not only embrace change but who accelerate it.
