About the role
About The Role
Lyric is looking for a Forward Deployed Supply Chain Engineer to lead platform delivery on one of our largest enterprise engagements to date. This is a senior, customer-facing position that will own a workstream end-to-end — from planning through go-live — and brings the judgment, presence, and drive to earn the confidence of a group of tenured, experienced operators and engineers.
This role calls for a hands-on builder: someone who operates with genuine autonomy, moves with urgency, and brings the rigor and credibility to lead a high-visibility deployment where the stakes are real.
What You'll Do
- Own Lyric deployment workstreams end-to-end, from planning through go-live
- Run meetings and manage the project plan independently, keeping stakeholders informed of progress and status
- Partner with customer and internal executives to align priorities, manage risk, and ensure on-time, on-budget delivery
- Lead structured UAT and drive adoption of Lyric solutions for our customers
- Train and enable customer teams, including engineers and experienced operators, to adopt Lyric’s platform effectively, building confidence in a powerful and fast-evolving toolset
- Serve as the primary point of contact for end-users through go-live and into steady-state monitoring
- Partner closely with Lyric's technical delivery team to translate business needs into the platform build
About You
- 3–7+ years of experience, ideally as a senior consultant at a large systems integrator, building, connecting, and managing technology systems
- Comfortable owning a workstream hands-on: running meetings independently, building project plans, and driving toward a timeline
- Supply chain consulting background preferred; oil & gas industry experience is a plus but not required
- Adept Program and Project Management skills
- High energy, high agency, and comfortable navigating a large, complex client organization
- Strong communicator, especially with engineers and experienced, non-technical, operator-type audiences
- SQL/Python familiarity is a plus
Location
Remote. We're hiring for this role in the US, with a preference for Central or Eastern time zones (Texas is a plus) to align with the delivery team and client stakeholders. Up to 25% travel expected, primarily within the US.
Compensation
The annual compensation range for this position is $100,000 and $180,000 in on-target earnings. Base cash will be determined based on years of experience with a 30% variable compensation that is earned based on individual & business performance. You will also have the opportunity to receive equity in Lyric.
