Probably the least boring job you’ll ever have.

At air up, we don’t just make bottles. We unbore water with flavor by scent. It makes no sense until you try it, and once you do, there’s no going back. Behind it all are teams pushing boundaries every day. Product bends taste and design in new directions. Marketing turns ideas into moments people talk about. Operations makes sure those moments reach hands everywhere.
Working here feels like stepping on stage: professionalism meets passion, curiosity meets courage. You’ll experiment, fail fast, learn faster, and actually see your ideas come to life. It's refreshingly low politics and low ego. Just smart, driven people who lift each other up and make things happen. And whatever happens, it sure won't be boring.


Welcome to air up.

We’re building a global love brand — fast, ambitious, and data-driven.
To fuel our next growth chapter, we’re looking for an experienced SEA Manager who owns Google Ads performance end-to-end and brings a strong Marketing Analytics mindset.

You’ll work autonomously, proactively, and confidently across the organization while shaping one of our most business-critical growth engines.
