About this role
Job title: SCM Technology Manager
About the Role
SCM Technology Manager is a thought leader first and a platform owner second. This role partners deeply with supply chain operations to translate business needs into a technology roadmap that delivers value at scale, with a focus on AI-forward planning across Lyric, SAP, NetSuite, Snowflake, and Coupa.
What You'll Do
-
Be the primary technology partner to supply chain leaders across Demand Planning, Supply Planning, Inventory, and Operations — accountable for technology outcomes that move at their pace.
-
Translate supply chain business requirements into a prioritized technology roadmap, working across internal teams and vendor partners to sequence and deliver.
-
Join demand review cycles, S&OP processes, and operational planning forums — not as a note-taker, but as a contributor who shapes how technology enables better decisions.
-
Close the loop when the platform doesn't match how the business actually operates — identify root causes, drive fixes, and build repeatable solutions.
-
Partner with the OTC functional lead where allocation outputs from supply planning land in SAP order management, and with the P2P functional lead where direct purchase orders generated from supply plans flow into SAP Purchasing.
-
Bring a genuine, informed point of view on how AI and machine learning are changing supply chain planning — demand sensing, probabilistic forecasting, supply risk modeling, inventory optimization — and build the case for where e.l.f. should invest next.
-
Evaluate and pilot AI-native capabilities within Lyric and adjacent platforms, distinguishing between vendor marketing and capabilities that will actually move the needle for a brand at e.l.f.'s scale.
-
Stay current on the supply chain AI landscape — not just planning-specific tools, but broader data and AI patterns (agentic workflows, LLM-assisted analytics, real-time data pipelines) that could change how the planning stack operates.
-
Serve as the architectural voice for SCM technology in cross-functional forums — bringing a POV on how SAP, Lyric, NetSuite, Snowflake, and Coupa interact, and where the seams create risk or opportunity.
-
Build the roadmap for what comes next — whether expanding Lyric modules, integrating new data sources, or introducing net-new capabilities — with a clear business case and sequencing logic.
-
Govern Lyric module expansions as Supply, Inventory, and Capacity Planning.
-
What We're Looking For
-
Strategic technology leader with ability to translate business requirements into tech roadmaps for supply chain planning.
-
Experience with Lyric.ai, SAP S/4HANA, NetSuite, Snowflake, and Coupa; familiarity with planning data flows across multiple ERPs.
-
Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication; able to operate across Demand, Supply, Inventory, and Logistics.
-
Knowledge of AI/ML in supply chain planning; ability to evaluate and pilot AI-native capabilities; stay current on AI landscape.
-
Architectural voice with ability to articulate trade-offs and build business cases for investment.
-
Nice to Have: CPG/multi-brand supply chain experience; hands-on experience with Lyric, SAP, NetSuite, Snowflake, Coupa; experience with S&OP.
-
Compensation & Benefits
-
Competitive pay and benefits; bonus eligibility at 200% of target over the last seven fiscal years.
-
Equity, flexible time off, year-round half-day Fridays.
-
Hybrid work environment: 3 days in office, 2 days at home.
