Augustus Hellwich is the Founder and President of illuno, the leading platform revolutionizing off-duty law enforcement staffing since its launch in 2019. With a keen eye for solving real-world challenges, Augustus identified the fragmented market for connecting businesses with verified officers and built illuno into a seamless, tech-driven
solution that delivers nationwide coverage, top-tier insurance, and unmatched fill rates.
Before founding illuno in Seattle and subsequently relocating to Dallas in 2020, Augustus built a successful career in real estate. As a Real Estate Broker at Keller Williams Realty (2014-2017), he emphasized a people-first approach, closing deals with transparency and trust—principles that now define illuno's user-focused ecosystem.
A proud father of four and a diehard Seattle sports fan, Augustus combines entrepreneurial drive with approachable leadership, empowering officers and clients alike. Under his guidance, illuno has scaled from a home office idea into a national powerhouse serving America's largest retailers, event companies, and parking operators, setting the standard for secure, efficient security staffing.
