Pipeline role. Skypace interviews on a rolling basis and hires when a matching customer program is confirmed.
Skypace is the ocean freight division of Maxton Shipping Inc., an FMC-licensed NVOCC (OTI license 027662) headquartered in California. Skypace runs ocean freight and 4PL programs for 200+ organizations in 20+ countries, under commercial contracts with nine ocean carriers.
Shippers hold their logistics providers to data: schedule, charges, invoices, records. On the shipper side, supply chain and logistics analysts assemble those scorecards every month from carrier portals, spreadsheets and invoices. Because a program is only as credible as the numbers in its business review, Skypace keeps an analyst function inside its customer programs.
The Supply Chain Analyst, Customer Programs produces the scorecards, freight audit findings and business review packs for customer programs, from the shipment, charge and document records held in the Skypace platform.
Compensation: $65,000 to $85,000 base salary, plus an annual bonus.
Location: Fully remote. Candidates must be located in Texas or California.

- Data completeness per shipment: milestones, charges and documents present;
- Invoice variance: value identified, disputed and recovered;
- Charge exposure: containers approaching free-time limits flagged before charges accrue;
- Exception root causes classified and closed, by cause code.
What You Will Do:
Scorecards and business reviews
- Build monthly and quarterly scorecards for customer programs: schedule reliability, cycle time, charge exposure, invoice variance, records complete;

You're a Fit If:
- 3+ years as a supply chain, logistics or freight audit analyst at a shipper, 3PL or forwarder;
- Working knowledge of ocean freight data: milestones, service contracts, surcharges, free time, demurrage and detention;
- Advanced Excel, a BI tool such as Power BI or Tableau, and SQL;
- Experience building carrier or vendor scorecards and business review material;
- Care for data quality and the habit of tracing a number back to its record;

This role produces the numbers that customers and carriers are held to. A scorecard that traces every figure to a shipment record is what makes a business review useful. Skypace keeps shipment, charge and document records in one platform, and relies on analysts to turn them into findings that program managers and customers act on.
Professionally, the role gives direct exposure to program management, carrier procurement and freight audit across several customer industries.
