Job description

**About the Company** **Why We Built Lyric:** Supply chains are more critical and complex than ever. Every day, large enterprises navigate trillions of possible decisions that could impact the bottom line. Powerful algorithms and AI can address these problems, yet most organizations struggle to leverage supply chain AI at scale. The current SCM technologies are either rigid, limited-scope point solutions or custom solutions built in-house, which demand immense expertise and investment. That is…until now. **Enter Lyric**: Lyric is an enterprise AI platform built specifically for supply chains, offering the best of both worlds: - **Out-of-the-box AI solutions** for optimizing networks, allocating inventory, scheduling routes, planning fulfillment capacity, promising orders, propagating demand, building predictions, analyzing scenarios, and more, ***plus*** - **A platform-first approach** that empowers both business and technical users with end-to-end product composability, leveraging no-code tools, their own code, or even forking our code to build and refine supply chain decision intelligence With Lyric, enterprises no longer have to choose between flexibility and speed, they get both. **The Mission:** We’re building a new era in supply chain with the team best equipped to lead it.
