Join the Team Revolutionizing Global Supply Chains at Auger

Imagine working at a company where you get the best of all worlds: the fast-paced execution of a startup and the guidance of leaders who’ve built things that actually work at scale. Founded by 23-year Amazon veteran and serial innovator Dave Clark, and backed by a $100M investment led by Oak HC/FT, were not just rethinking how global supply chains operate—we’re redefining them.

At Auger, we envision a future where global supply chain technology is as intuitive as your favorite app. No more complex spreadsheets, no more arcane queries, no more clunky “franken-software” —just real-time insights, smooth automation, and a frictionless experience that helps companies make fast decisions. If you’re ready to help us build the future of global logistics, come join the ride.

We believe supply chain problems aren’t just business problems—they’re human problems. When a supply chain breaks down, it’s not just an inconvenience—it means products don’t make it to store shelves, workers face burnout, and the environment pays the price. Auger is here to change that, and we need you to help us do it. With us, you’ll be part of an expert team that is fundamentally reshaping one of the world’s most vital industries and will make global supply chains more efficient, more sustainable, and ultimately, better for everyone.

You'll work alongside the brightest minds in the industry, learn cutting-edge technologies, and be empowered to take on challenges that will stretch your skills and your thinking. If you’re ready to help us build the future of global logistics, come join the ride.
