About RYZE:
We’re looking for a strategic and detail-oriented Supply Planning professional to lead end-to-end supply planning across a 3–12 month horizon. This role will own translating demand signals into actionable production plans, managing co-manufacturing allocation, and driving inventory strategies that support both retail and DTC growth. Working primarily in Tether, you will proactively identify supply risks, capacity constraints, and inventory gaps while partnering cross-functionally to support production scheduling, new co-man onboarding, and the evolving S&OP process. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced environments, balances analytical rigor with operational execution, and can confidently navigate ambiguity to keep supply plans aligned with business growth objectives.The Role:
Supply Planning:Build and maintain the long-range supply plan
Translate demand signals into monthly and weekly production targets for each SKU
Work directly in Tether to build, maintain and update supply plans — this is your primary tool
Identify supply gaps, capacity constraints and risk before they become problems
Using the production teams directions on co-man capacity and product allocation, build the production plan that assigns volume to each co-man partner
Coordinate with the team on production feasibility, lead times and scheduling inputs
Track plan vs. actuals and flag variances — production shortfalls, schedule misses, raw material delays
Support the onboarding of new co-man partners by building production plans in advance of go-live
Own safety stock targets, days on hand goals and reorder points across all SKUs and channels
Model inventory scenarios — what happens if demand exceeds plan, if a co-man misses, if a new retail account launches ahead of schedule
Keep finished goods inventory within target ranges — not too lean, not overbuilt
Flag OOS risk and overstock positions before they impact retail fill rates or DTC fulfillment
Deliver the supply-side picture before each weekly S&OP — constraints, risks, plan vs. actuals
Own the supply plan inputs that connect to the demand number to manufacturing's production schedule
Support the S&OP process as it matures — this cadence is being built, and you will help shape it
5+ years of supply planning experience at a CPG brand — you have done this before at a company that was scaling
You have built supply plans from a demand forecast, not just maintained someone else's spreadsheet
You are comfortable in Tether, NetSuite or equivalent planning and ERP systems — you learn new tools quickly
You understand the co-manufacturing model — you know what it means to plan production across multiple external partners
You are data-driven but not data-dependent — you can make a call when the data is incomplete
You communicate clearly. When there's a risk, you name it. When there's a tradeoff, you explain it.
You have worked in a lean team and are comfortable owning a domain without much process already in place
