Product Leader (Supply Chain Innovation)

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.

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.

As a Product Leader for Supply Chain Innovation, you’ll bridge the gap between the complex realities of global supply chain operations and our product development teams. Your mission is to ensure we build tools that supply chain professionals actually adopt, trust, and rely on to run their businesses. You’ll use your hands‑on experience running or supporting complex supply chains to shape the product vision, guide prioritization, and validate solutions that solve real operational pain.

You’re the connective tissue between our customers’ operational challenges and our engineers’ technical creativity — ensuring everything we ship is usable, credible, and grounded in reality.

• You’ve run or supported complex supply chains through digital transformations — and understand the realities of enterprise systems (ERP, WMS, TMS, OMS, etc.).
• You bring strong product instincts and can balance user empathy, technical depth, and business judgment.
• You’ve likely been in rooms where tech over promised and under delivered — and you bring a healthy skepticism that helps us build trustworthy products.
• You know how to build credibility with operators, translating between their language and that of software teams.
• You think in systems and workflows, not just features — connecting the dots across people, processes, and data.
• You’re motivated by impact, not just output — and measure success by what customers actually adopt and rely on.

• Translate reality into product requirements:
  Solve real-world supply chain operations problems by leading the design of AI-powered tools.
• Champion usability and adoption:
  Bring the operator’s perspective into every stage of the product lifecycle — from concept reviews to release testing.
• Collaborate cross-functionally:
  Partner closely with engineering, design, and data science to ensure our solutions balance technical feasibility with operational practicality.
• Validate and iterate:
  Use your industry expertise to stress-test prototypes, identify edge cases, and refine features for real-world impact.
• Inform the roadmap:
  Distill learnings from customer engagements into actionable insights that shape near-term priorities and long-term strategy.
• Maintain product integrity:
  Raise concerns early when proposed features don’t align with customer needs, ensuring we invest our time wisely.
• Measure impact:
  Define and track success metrics that reflect business outcomes in real dollars.
• Elevate the operator’s voice:
  Lead internal briefings and design sessions that ensure the voice of the user stays at the center of every product decision.

Placement within the range is determined by experience and qualifications. In addition to base salary, total compensation may include eligibility for equity awards or bonuses. The base pay range for this role is $250,000 – $350,000 per year.

• Highly competitive total compensation packages.
• Top tier medical, dental, and vision insurance and wellness perks.
• 401k with company match.
