About Auror

At Auror, we’re empowering the retail industry to reduce theft and Organized Retail Crime, a $150 billion problem globally. It’s high volume crime that’s increasingly organized in nature and is putting people, retailers, and communities at risk every day.

This role reports into Nick Beeson, Integrations Lead

My family have been Colorado natives since settling here nearly 150 years ago, and I’ve been proud to call the Denver area ‘home’ most of my life. I graduated from the University of Denver with a Computer Science degree, and worked for a Colorado-based startup in Martech soon after. I was initially hired as a web developer, but quickly grew in their fast-paced environment and became a technical lead managing a team of wonderfully talented developers. In early 2021, with a steady job, a pregnant wife, and a new mortgage payment, I decided to quit and co-found a new venture. The company was a SaaS marketplace app that sought to connect short-term rental owners with high-demand travel nurses in need of housing. I helmed the technical side of the company, and me and my team built an incredible software platform that I am still incredibly proud of. I joined Auror in the summer of 2023 to find something more stable as Integrations lead. On the weekends, I will most likely be spending time outside with my wife and son, or in my garage building something. Check out my LinkedIn here.
