- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate security into product roadmaps. Risk Assessment and Management:
- Conduct threat modeling and risk assessments to identify potential security vulnerabilities.
- Prioritize and manage security risks, ensuring timely mitigation.
- Implement security controls in our products and educate developers on best practices to minimize risks. Incident Response:
- Triage, investigate, and help remediate security incidents.
- Help develop incident response runbooks and detection rules.
- Participate in incident retrospectives to improve future security outcomes. Security Testing and Validation:
- Develop and execute security testing plans, including penetration testing and vulnerability assessments.
- Collaborate with QA teams to ensure security testing is integrated into the development lifecycle.
- Validate security controls and ensure compliance with security standards. Secure Software Development Lifecycle:
- Design and implement controls to secure the Auger’s software supply chain.
- Build security into CI/CD pipelines.
- Help developers triage and remediate static analysis findings.
- Implement dynamic analysis tooling and automated triage pipelines.

## What You Bring

- Degree in Cyber Security, Computer Science, Engineering, IT, or related field.
- 5+ years of experience in a security engineering role.
- Strong understanding of security principles, practices, and technologies.
- Experience with threat modeling, risk assessment, and security testing.
- Knowledge of security standards and frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST, OWASP).
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

## About Auger

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Auger is building the world’s first autonomous operating system for supply chain operations, collapsing the gap between signal and execution with AI-powered automation.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: Bellevue, Washington, USA
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Dave Clark (Founder & CEO), Leigh Anne Clark (Co-Founder and President, Fashion and Beauty)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Supply Chain Technology, Enterprise AI, Logistics Software
- **Target customers**: B2B, Enterprise (large-scale supply chain operators, retailers, manufacturers, logistics providers)
- **Mission or purpose statement**: "To eliminate the Coordination Tax that traps enterprises in manual silos and fragmented systems. To make superhuman operations available to every enterprise ready to lead."

## Products & Services
- **The Autonomous Operating System**: A unified AI-powered platform that integrates with existing enterprise systems to provide real-time intelligence, cross-system synchronization, and autonomous execution of routine supply chain tasks (demand shifts, lead time management, capacity planning, scheduling). The system turns messy data into executable truth, allowing operators to move from firefighting to strategic work.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric – Total Funding**: $400M across three rounds (Seed, Series A, Series A extension)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Oak HC/FT (lead investor in initial $100M Series A)
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Headcount grew **223.9% YoY** (from ~26 to 129 employees)
  - LinkedIn follower count grew **74.5% YoY** (currently 12,855)
  - Active job postings: 17 (up 88.9% YoY)
  - Major talent pipeline from Amazon (26 hires), Microsoft (9), AWS (7), Meta (4)

## Competitive Advantages
- **Founder pedigree**: Led by Dave Clark, former CEO of Amazon’s worldwide consumer business — deep operational credibility at global scale.
- **"Living Ontology" approach**: Not layering AI on top of broken legacy systems, but building a unified data fabric across the entire enterprise.
- **Consumer-grade UX**: Makes complex supply chain tasks accessible through simple, intuitive interfaces (e.g., natural language queries for inventory insights).
- **Team composition**: 53% of employees in technical roles; includes a Chief AI and Agentic Scientist, Chief Supply Chain Scientist, and Chief AI Economist — rare depth of domain AI expertise.

## Strategic Focus
- **Autonomous execution**: Replacing the "speed of consensus" (manual coordination, meetings, spreadsheets) with real-time, automated reflexes.
- **Sustainability**: Positioning autonomous execution as the architecture for sustainable scaling — reducing excess inventory, expedited shipments, and waste.
- **Expanding beyond supply chain**: The company states it will expand "wherever coordination breaks down," suggesting a platform play across adjacent operational domains.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture highlights**: Described as a "pioneering venture" with a human-centered approach to solving broken supply chains. The team is composed of operators who "have lived the consequences" — late nights, impossible trade-offs — and are building to eliminate that pain for others.
- **Remote/hybrid/office policy**: In-office roles (e.g., Strategic BDR listed as "In-Office"). HQ in Bellevue, WA, with additional offices in Clyde Hill, WA and Bellevue, WA.
- **Notable perks or engineering culture**: Heavy investment in deep technical talent (AI, data science, supply chain science). Emphasis on moving from "firefighting to reinvention." Backed by top-tier VC with substantial runway ($400M total funding). Strong pipeline of ex-Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta engineers.
