Just thought of a few others:
Onyx - Geometry
Verve - Street Level
Campos - Superior Blend
Proud Mary - Humbler
Five Elephant - House Blend
Geometry if you want to go for a bit lighter roast that lets some berry sparkle in. Others are more riffing on the theme.

I started with Onyx, Verve, now I bought beans from Prodial, DAK(eightounce), hydrangea & September etc
A blend to achieve this cup would rely on primarily (50-60%) Brazilian naturals for the core sweetness, with Colombian washed for the clean citric-malic acidity and silky body (~25%), and some mix of Guatemala/Honduras and Ethiopia washed for the last quarter to tweak body and acids.
If this profile (sweet-nutty, caramel-driven profiles with gentle citrus lift) is absolutely your jam, I’d check out the following blends for a similar cup put together from higher graded green beans:
Counter Culture and Stumptown are probably closest in profile. Intelligentsia and Blue Bottle will add more sparkle to the finish. La Colombe and Square Mile lean sweeter. Wendelboe will be the lightest roast.
