[Hiring] Inventory Analyst @RYZE

Role Description

We are adding an Inventory Analyst to our remote operations team to keep pace with growing transaction volume across our co-manufacturing partners and warehouse locations. This role works alongside our existing inventory team members, sharing the same core scope while taking ownership of additional locations and partners. The work is a mix of hands-on transaction execution in NetSuite and the analysis that sits on top of it:

• Reconciling what our system says against what our co-manufacturers report.
• Finding the root cause when the two disagree.
• Keeping inventory data clean enough for accounting to close the month on it.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of hands-on experience in inventory, supply chain, ecommerce operations, or transactional accounting.
• Working experience in NetSuite — assembly builds, item receipts, transfers, inventory adjustments, and saved searches.
• Experience reconciling internal inventory records against third-party reporting from co-manufacturers, contract manufacturers, or outsourced warehouse partners.
• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets: pivot tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, INDEX/MATCH, and comfort in large multi-thousand-row files.
• Demonstrated accuracy with detailed numerical data, and the discipline to double-check your own work before it moves downstream.
• Strong written English — you will document findings, escalate issues to partners, and explain variances in writing.
• Ability to work independently in a remote setup, and to raise a flag early when something looks wrong.
• Reliable internet connection and a computer suitable for full-time remote work.

Requirements

• Reconcile inventory balances in NetSuite against third-party reporting from our co-manufacturers, ensuring data consistency across all locations.
• Review co-manufacturer production and consumption reports for completeness and accuracy before posting.
• Work directly with co-manufacturer contacts to research and resolve discrepancies, short receipts, and unreported movements.
• Track inbound shipments through receipt, escalating delays, quantity variances, and damages.
• Investigate and document root causes of partner-level variances, and follow through on corrective actions.
• Execute and audit assembly builds for manufacturing, kitting, and finished goods.
• Process and validate inventory adjustments tied to production, kitting, rework, and corrections.
• Enter and verify item receipts, transfers, and returns for co-manufacturer and warehouse locations.
• Validate Bills of Materials (BOMs) used in production and kitting assemblies.
• Ensure transactions post accurately by SKU, quantity, location, and date, and align with physical movements and partner reporting.
• Build and maintain recurring inventory reports — on-hand positions, variance summaries, aging, and discrepancy logs.
• Identify discrepancies between expected and actual material usage, and quantify the impact.
• Perform data validation to surface posting errors, duplicate transactions, and missing entries.
• Analyze trends in recurring discrepancies and recommend process or system fixes.
• Assist with end-of-month inventory close and reconciliations across all locations and partners.
• Provide transaction-level support, documentation, and written variance explanations for accounting and audits.
• Maintain SOPs for the tasks you own, and other related tasks that may be assigned from time to time.

Benefits

• Professional development opportunities.
• Flexible remote work environment.
• Health and wellness benefits.
• Collaborative team culture.
