Auror
Auror Technical Project Lead
At Auror, we're empowering the retail industry to tackle theft and Organised Retail Crime, a $150 Billion problem globally. It's high volume crime that's increasingly organised in nature and is putting people, retailers, and communities at risk every day. Founded in New Zealand 11 years ago, we're working with some of the best and largest retailers in the world across the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. Auror is connecting people and intelligence to reduce crime. We're using technology for good. In partnership with our leading retail partners, we need people with the passion, determination, and innovation required to overcome one of the world's largest problems. If you're looking to make a difference with and for the people dedicated to stopping crime, for good, then we want you on our team. We're also embracing the potential of AI to supercharge our impactwhether that's enhancing the way we detect trends, support our customers, or improve internal workflows. As a company, we're committed to responsibly incorporating AI into how we work and what we build, and we encourage all Aurors to be curious about how AI can elevate their work, regardless of role or function. The Role
Auror's mission is to reduce violent crime in retail stores by 50% over the next 5 years and we believe that recognition technology, when deployed with privacy at the forefront, has a major role to play in helping us in achieving this goal. Our market-leading License Plate Recognition (LPR) and Facial Recognition (FR) product modules help retailers to solve and prevent crime by sending real-time alerts to store teams about high-risk individuals entering their locations. This critical intelligence empowers teams to respond proactively, enhancing the safety of both staff and customers and improving loss prevention results. Our customers across North America are increasing their adoption of Auror's LPR and FR modules, as such we are seeking a hands-on leader to spearhead the successful implementation of this technology in tens of thousands of retail locations. As the Technical Project Lead, you will be at the forefront of Auror's innovative recognition technology. Having a deep technical expertise in both LPR and FR technologies, you will lead end-to-end projects with customers, partnering with a diverse set of internal and external stakeholders, to deliver successful pilots and full scale rollouts. You'll become the subject matter expert on Auror's LPR and FR modules, understanding our technical integrations and product capability inside and out. This role requires someone with experience deploying end-to-end solutions that involve both hardware and software, exceptional project management skills, and the ability to collaborate effectively with various internal and external stakeholders. Location and Hours
This is a Denver CO based role, we value co-location and have a hybrid flexible working model. Our recognition technology product modules are leveraged by customers in NZ, AU, US and UK, and while this role is focussed on North America you will need to be flexible with your working hours in order to effectively support our customers and internal teams globally.

You'll act as a project manager for these deployments, ensuring successful planning, rollout, and ongoing support. Technical subject matter expertise: Deep understanding of LPR and FR systems and the various deployment models, including on-camera and on-premise deployments Practical knowledge of networking requirements for software running in customer environments Solid understanding of SaaS platforms, databases, and cloud environments Technical pre-sales: Provides in-depth technical expertise during the sales cycle, understanding client needs and communicating the technical value proposition. Supports the commercial team with presentations, RFPs, and ensures a smooth transition to project implementation. Engineering collaboration: Work closely with the engineering team to: Set up monitoring and alerting systems Configure and optimize recognition technology deployments Troubleshoot network and hardware issues Provide technical feedback for product improvements Supplier relationship management: Build and maintain a network of suppliers for direct supply of recognition technology hardware and software. You will also work closely and in partnership with our integrators (external to Auror) to ensure a smooth roll out and maintenance of the systems.
