Company Overview

At Motorola Solutions, we’re guided by a shared purpose – helping people be their best in the moments that matter – and we live up to our purpose every day by solving for safer. Because people can only be their best when they not only feel safe, but are safe. We’re solving for safer by building the best possible technologies across every part of our safety and security ecosystem. That’s mission-critical communications devices and networks, AI-powered video security & access control and the ability to unite voice, video and data in a single command center view. We’re solving for safer by connecting public safety agencies and enterprises, enabling the collaboration that’s critical to connect those in need with those who can help. The work we do here matters.

Aperçu de l’entreprise

Chez Motorola Solutions, nous sommes guidés par un objectif commun: aider les gens à donner le meilleur d’eux-mêmes dans les moments les plus  importants - et nous sommes à la hauteur de notre engagement en créant des solutions sécurisées. Parce que les gens ne peuvent donner le meilleur d’eux-mêmes que lorsqu’ils se sentent en sécurité et qu’ils le sont. Nous créons des solutions sécurisées en développant les meilleures technologies intégrées à travers les écosystèmes de sûreté et de sécurité. Qu’il s’agisse d’appareils et de réseaux de communications essentiels, d’une sécurité vidéo et d’un contrôle d’accès basés sur l’IA ou d’une capacité d’unir la voix, vidéo et les données dans un seul centre de commandement. Nous créons des solutions sécurisées en connectant les agences de sécurité publique et les entreprises, permettant ainsi une collaboration essentielle entre les personnes qui ont besoin d’aide et les personnes pouvant aider. Le travail que nous accomplissons ici est primordial.
