🏢 About Lime

Lime is a leader in micromobility, providing shared electric scooters and bikes to reduce urban carbon emissions. With operations in over 200 cities globally, you'll be part of a mission-driven team revolutionizing last-mile transportation. Their focus on sustainability and tech-forward culture makes them an exciting place for engineers passionate about green logistics.

About This Role

As an ERP Application Engineer specializing in NetSuite SCM, you'll be the technical backbone of Lime's supply chain operations, ensuring seamless inventory management, warehouse execution, and cross-platform integrations. Your work will directly impact the availability of scooters and bikes in cities, optimizing everything from parts procurement to final assembly.

💡 A Day in the Life

Start your day checking integration logs for any overnight failures between NetSuite and OTM or Anaplan. Mid-morning, you might configure a new SuiteScript to automate serial number tracking for a new scooter component. After lunch, you'll collaborate with supply chain managers to refine WMS wave planning rules, then spend the afternoon debugging a data sync issue with the Arena PLM connector.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Submitting a generic cover letter that doesn't mention NetSuite WMS, OTM, or Anaplan by name—be specific to the tools listed.
  • Overlooking the 'techno-functional' aspect: don't just list technical skills; show you understand supply chain processes like wave planning and inventory valuation.
  • Ignoring the remote collaboration aspect: emphasize your ability to work asynchronously and communicate effectively across time zones.
