Join Auger — Where Innovation Meets Real-World Impact

Imagine a place where you get the best of both worlds: the speed and energy of a startup, and the experience of leaders who’ve built systems that scale globally.

Founded by 23-year Amazon veteran and serial innovator Dave Clark and backed by a $100M investment led by Oak HC/FT, Auger isn’t just rethinking how global supply chains work—we’re redefining them.

What We’Re Building

Auger is creating the world’s first agentic operating system for supply chains—turning one of the planet’s most complex systems into a source of foresight, resilience, and growth.

We partner with leading global enterprises to solve their toughest challenges: accelerating decision speed, reducing costs, unlocking capital, and improving service. With Auger, brittle fragments become an indestructible engine of progress, economic strength, and planetary sustainability.

Why It Matters
