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, we're 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.
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.

As a Senior TPM at Auger, you will work closely with leadership and other key stakeholders to plan, execute, and deliver high-impact projects.

  • Process Optimization: Develop and refine processes that improve efficiency, scalability, and transparency across engineering and product teams.

  • Risk Management: Identify and mitigate risks proactively to ensure successful project execution.

  • Metrics & Reporting: Define key success metrics and provide regular updates on project status, risks, and perfomance to leadership.

  • Communication & Alignment: Foster strong communication across teams, ensuring alignment on goals, timelines, and deliverables.

  • Strong technical acumen with the ability to engage deeply with engineering teams.

  • 401K 

  • Work with teammates who tackle complex and consequential challenges with resilience, determination, and good humor.

What We Do

About Auger
Auger is a pioneering venture to build the world's first true end-to-end supply chain operating system. Founded and led by Dave Clark, former CEO of the Amazon Consumer Business and backed by an initial $100M from Oak HC/FT, Auger is building a future where global supply chains operate with the simplicity of today’s most intuitive consumer technologies. Revolutionizing global supply chains with an AI-powered OS unifying data for seamless, real-time insights, and powerful automation.

Our Solution
Auger is creating a new solution for companies seeking better options. Auger’s core strength lies in its deep AI-powered automation, paired with a consumer-grade user experience. This combination allows operators to handle complex tasks through simple, familiar tools. Need real-time inventory insights for next week’s shipment? Just ask. Actionable data appears instantly, enabling swift decisions—no complex queries or training required.

Why We’re Different
Traditional supply chain management is fragmented, relying on incompatible systems and inefficient workarounds. Many companies are stuck with “Franken-software”—patched-together solutions that fail to communicate effectively. Auger is different. We integrate deeply with existing systems, use AI to automate routine processes, and deliver a cohesive user experience that feels intuitive and natural, letting your team focus on what matters: driving growth, innovation, and sustainability.

A Human-Centered Approach
Broken supply chains don’t just impact businesses—they affect people. Delays mean products don’t reach shelves, miscommunications lead to overtime and burnout, and inefficiencies drive up costs and contribute to a growing carbon footprint. We believe supply chain problems are human problems, and we’re here to solve them. At Auger, we’re on a mission to make global supply chains more efficient, more sustainable, and ultimately, better for everyone.
