Grants + Compliance Manager

Alyrica Networks brings fast, reliable internet to rural communities across Oregon's Willamette Valley. Our purpose is to sustainably improve the lives of our employees and customers. We do that by hiring, developing, and supporting exceptional people who take pride in building a better future, and by building an organization that delivers the best customer experience in telecommunications.

Our values shape how we work and who we invite to the team.

We are growing quickly. We hold five BEAD broadband grants through the Oregon Broadband Office (about $39.7 million in federal support, roughly $52.9 million in total project value with match), and we operate Alyrica Telephone and Roome Telecommunications, a rural incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) in Halsey. Between the grants and our internet and telephone operations, we carry a substantial set of federal and state compliance obligations.

This role owns them.

You make sure Alyrica never misses a filing, a report, or a grant milestone. Many of our filings are prepared by outside consultants and CPAs, so much of the work is coordination: pulling records from our internal systems, formatting them the way each preparer needs, reviewing and certifying what they file, and paying them on schedule. You keep documentation audit-ready and watch for rule changes from the agencies we answer to.

When a convoluted government form or portal lands on your desk, you read the instructions, work it out, and get it done. You will also pitch in on administrative work and other duties as assigned. And because the work repeats monthly, quarterly, and annually, we expect you to turn it into efficient, repeatable, documented processes that anyone could pick up and follow, and then work to automate every manual step you can, so the work runs more on its own each cycle.

That is the Alyrica way.

• Serve as Alyrica's primary contact with the Oregon Broadband Office (Business Oregon); track and respond to grantor requests before they become urgent.
• Maintain the master tracker of milestones, certifications, and deadlines across all five subawards; prepare and submit all reports on time.
• Substantiate match contributions, support drawdowns, and support the Audits.
• Coordinate environmental reviews, Build America Buy America documentation, labor standards, letters of credit, and engineer certifications.
• Manage post-build obligations: ongoing reporting, low-cost plan commitments, and records retention, protecting the company from clawback or default.

• The recurring processes of the role are documented clearly enough that a capable colleague could step in and follow them.

• A self-directed problem solver: you research, learn, and resolve before escalating.
