Auger, a startup specializing in logistics and supply chain software, has appointed Yuqing Sun as its chief data and AI enablement officer. With nearly two decades of experience at Johnson & Johnson in various supply chain, analytics, and data science roles, Sun brings a unique blend of technical expertise and operational insight to the Bellevue-based company. According to Auger’s founder and CEO, Dave Clark, Sun’s background in revolutionizing complex supply chains through data and AI innovations makes her a valuable addition to the team.
Clark highlighted Sun’s accomplishments at Johnson & Johnson, where she spearheaded the development and scaling of over 30 AI-driven products across optimization, simulation, IoT, machine learning, and computer vision. This strategic move comes on the heels of Auger’s recent appointment of Justine Hastings as chief AI economist and its successful $100 million Series A funding round last December.
