I was able to "fix" the issue by setting COMPOSER_ALLOW_SUPERUSER to 1 in my deployment pipeline.
Not sure what it does and what it changes but it works.

I'm not exactly sure what's happened here, but it sounds like something is trying to access the Super Table plugin before it's been initialized by Craft.
