This is your chance to work on cutting-edge projects that blend data, AI, and real-time systems to transform global supply chains. As an SDE at Auger, you’ll work alongside some of the brightest minds in the industry, learning and contributing to mission-critical systems. Whether you’re designing APIs, optimizing data flows, or implementing new features, your work will have a direct and meaningful impact on businesses worldwide. We’re not just looking for coders; we’re looking for builders—creative problem-solvers who thrive on tackling complex challenges. This is a chance to grow, learn, and make your mark on a product that’s reshaping an industry. ## What You'll Do - Design and build software components that power Auger's supply chain solutions, including real-time data pipelines, APIs, and AI-powered tools. - Solve real technical challenges in scalability, performance, and data integration, from optimizing logistics algorithms to improving platform responsiveness. - Work closely with engineers, data scientists, and product managers to ship solutions that hold up beyond the first customer. - Own your projects end to end, gaining hands-on exposure to cloud computing, AI, and modern software practices along the way. - Ship work that matters. Your code runs in production, powering decisions for global businesses in the world of logistics and beyond. ## What You Bring We need team members who are ready and willing to take on a variety of challenges and bring an abiding curiosity about the “what’s” and “why’s” of the data and technology. You’ll thrive if you’re a resilient, driven, and confident, developer who brings the determination to tackle one of the most complex and consequential challenges in the world. Specific qualifications we are looking for: - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. - 3+ years of professional software development experience, with expertise in Java or Python. - Hands-on experience with cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP. - Solid understanding of algorithms, data structures, and distributed systems. - Experience building scalable SaaS platforms or enterprise applications. - Ability to work in person from our Bellevue headquarters, and to participate in on-call rotations. - Comfort working through ambiguity with urgency, patience, and good humor. - A track record of building things on your own time, whether side projects, open-source contributions, or anything that shows you love to build and learn. - Knowledge of supply chain systems or logistics is a plus, as is familiarity with AI/ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch), databases (SQL or NoSQL), or real-time streaming platforms (Kafka, Flink). ## 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. ## Sources 1.
