Organic dairy producer with processing facilities and branded retail products
Aurora Organic Dairy operates a vertically integrated dairy supply chain—farms, processing plants, and branded products across Colorado and Texas—with 750+ employees and 20,000+ dairy cows. Their tech stack is heavily industrial: Siemens TIA Portal, RSLogix 5000, and Wonderware InTouch for facility automation and control systems. The hiring velocity is accelerating and skews junior across manufacturing and operations, while internal projects center on safety program implementation and lean manufacturing—suggesting a push to tighten process repeatability and reduce downtime-driven inefficiency.
Aurora Organic Dairy is a privately held organic milk producer and processor founded in 1976. The company operates dairy farms in Colorado and Texas, processing facilities in Platteville, Colorado and Columbia, Missouri, and corporate headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. Aurora manufactures both proprietary branded products and private-label organic dairy for retail partners. The business model is B2B2C: retailers and brand owners source products that meet SQF and HACCP compliance standards, then market them to consumers. The company competes on product quality, traceability, and certification rather than price.
Manufacturing and process control: Siemens TIA Portal, RSLogix 5000, Wonderware InTouch. Office: Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access). PLC automation is core to their facility operations.
