Job description
Be extraordinary - Excite the ordinary!
Our vision is to make a healthy and sustainable lifestyle the most attractive choice. So we defy: the status quo, misleading product, and nonsense rules! We truly believe in the power of ideas and are thirsty to realize the ones that could have impact. We’re an eclectic bunch of creative minds, experts, builders, and improvers. Our perspectives, cultures, backgrounds, dreams, skills, and life paths may have nothing in common, but we gather behind a vision and sail together towards our ambitious goals.
Are you looking to take on a new challenge? Let’s talk.
At air up, we believe operational excellence happens when smart processes meet strong partnerships – and when logistics turns into a driver for customer satisfaction and business growth.

The Operations team is the backbone of getting our products from idea to doorstep. We make sure everything runs smoothly by securing supply through purchase orders and keeping a close eye on the entire production process — all the way from the factory floor to our warehouses. But it doesn’t stop there. The team also manages our 3PL warehouses to ensure everything is stored properly and ready to move.
When it comes to getting our products out into the world, Operations handles distribution to all our channels — whether it’s direct-to-consumer, retail stores, or online marketplaces.
Simply put, we keep things moving, so our customers always get what they need, when they need it.
