About the role

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. 


At Auger, our mission is powered by a robust and scalable cloud infrastructure that supports real-time analytics, machine learning, and advanced AI solutions. The Security Team is responsible for securing Auger, our platform, and most importantly, our customer’s data. 


As a Senior Security Engineer at Auger, you will own the definition and implementation of security measures to protect our products and data throughout their lifecycle. You’ll be responsible for securing our cloud infrastructure, performing incident response, and helping our development teams build our platform securely.
