The Hardest Part of Industrial AI Isn't Adoption—It's On-Site Deployment

Augury, a New York-based industrial AI company, is betting on forward-deployed engineers (FDEs) to help manufacturers move beyond AI pilots. As it expands its Bengaluru engineering hub, the company plans to grow its FDE team to 25–30 people over the next two months, with engineers working directly with customers to adapt AI agents to the realities of factory operations. The new location expands Augury’s global footprint, complementing its existing hubs in the United States and Israel.
