Auger solves them. Our AI detects disruptions, evaluates trade-offs, and executes decisions automatically - moving from signal to action in seconds, not weeks. We eliminate the Coordination Tax: the billions in capital and time lost when disconnected systems force the best people in the business to become the Human API between planning and execution.\nAt Auger, we design autonomy into our systems. We expect the same from our people.\nThat means:\nClear ownership, not decision by consensus\nFirst principles over inherited patterns\nShipping systems, not slide decks\nFast feedback from reality, not opinions\nIf you want to build, ship, and iterate against reality, Auger is for you.\nAuger was founded by Dave Clark and is backed by $150M from Oak HC/FT and Eclipse Capital. Our team works from Bellevue, WA and Dallas, TX.\nAbout the Team & Role\nAuger is hiring a Data Scientist to help turn raw customer data into the structured understanding within our ontology that powers autonomous operations and execution. Russell Allgor’s supply chain science team builds advanced AI and optimization systems for some of the most complex supply chain problems in the world, and bringing that science into production requires a tight connection between the models and the data that feeds them. This role sits at that connection point.\nYou will work shoulder-to-shoulder with seasoned supply chain experts, learning the domain on the job while bringing the analytical horsepower to model it. Your core work will be to understand how a customer’s business actually operates, interpret the data their systems produce, and build the inference, regression, simulation, and optimization logic that closes the loop between business processes and the world model that represents them. You will deeply understand what the models need, why they need it, and how supply chain data behaves in practice, then translate that understanding into clear, actionable requirements for the engineers building the underlying infrastructure.\nYou will be a critical link between Auger’s applied science and data engineering teams. When data quality issues arise, you will help diagnose whether the issue is the source data, a pipeline problem, a modeling assumption, or a mismatch between the data and the real-world business process it represents. When a model moves toward production, you will own the quality validation to make sure it works in the real world.\nThis is a role built for potential. We care far more about how you think - how you question things that don’t make sense, break a hard problem into testable pieces, and use data to prove or disprove a hypothesis - than about the length of your résumé. If you are smart, curious, driven, and coachable, and you like to build things that work, you will thrive here.\nThis role is based in Bellevue, WA or Dallas, TX\nWhat You’ll Do\nUnderstand how customer businesses actually operate: how work flows, where decisions are made, and what good looks like operationally.\nInterpret customer data and assign context - figure out what the data means, how entities relate, and where the gaps and inconsistencies are.\nForm and test hypotheses using data to prove or disprove ideas about the system and the relationships between entities within it.\nBuild inference techniques and regression models that extract signal and quantify relationships.\nTranslate business logic and objectives into mathematical constraints and quantifiable calculations.\nIdentify missing concepts needed to close process and data loops - spot what isn't there yet but needs to be.\nServe as the critical link between applied science and data engineering: translate scientific requirements into engineering specifications and vice versa.\nWhat You Bring\nMaster's degree in Data Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or a related quantitative field; undergraduate degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Economics, or Computer Science.\nStrong proficiency in Python and SQL; comfortable working with large, messy, real-world datasets.\nExperience with machine learning and optimization models, with strong statistical intuition - you notice when results look wrong and can articulate why.\nEnough familiarity with data pipelines and infrastructure to have productive technical conversations with data engineers.\nSharp analytical instincts paired with strong common sense: you can tell when something doesn't add up, and you use data to prove or disprove it.\nA builder's mindset - you break problems into testable components, take things apart, and improve them.\nComfort with ambiguity and a bias toward asking the right question before assuming the right answer.\nSupply chain and logistics experience is ideal. Hands-on experience with any complex, interrelated physical system is highly beneficial. Candidates who demonstrate the smarts, drive, and curiosity described above are encouraged to apply - we hire for potential.\nCompensation & Benefits\nAs part of our commitment to People Powered Greatness, we invest in our team members with competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits to support your health, financial future, and daily life. The package includes medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) with company match, and commuter benefits. Total compensation may include a combination of a competitive base salary and equity. Your initial placement within our salary range will be based on your experience, qualifications.\nThe base pay range for this role is $145,000 - $200,000 per year.\nAuger considers all qualified applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
