Augury Brings in Google Cloud Veteran to Build Its Next Act

Augury, the Industrial AI company whose sensors and software help manufacturers prevent machine failures and optimize production, has appointed Anoop Mohan as its new Chief Product and Technology Officer.

Mohan joins from Google Cloud, where he led product for agentic AI solutions within the Applied AI group, a background that maps directly onto where Augury is headed next: from a company that predicts machine problems to one that autonomously acts on them.

Prediction Isn't Enough Anymore

Augury says it has accumulated what it calls "the malfunction dictionary," the largest dataset of mechanical signals in the industry, covering more than 1 billion machine hours monitored according to the company. Customers including PepsiCo, DuPont, and Colgate-Palmolive operate across more than 40 countries on the platform.

Mohan will unify Augury's Product Management, Engineering, UX, Operations, and AI Incubation teams, with a charge to move into agentic AI, building systems that actively coordinate industrial workflows rather than simply flagging issues.
