Senior Engagement Manager; Japanese Speaking

Chooose builds software to enable the lower carbon fuel value chain.

Companies like Delta Air Lines, Cathay Pacific, British Airways, and Microsoft use the Chooose platform to build, operate, and scale their lower carbon fuel programs (typically referred to as Sustainable Aviation Fuel, or SAF), and to advance voluntary and compliance carbon management initiatives.

With offices in Miami and Oslo, and remote employees across the US and Europe, Chooose is relentlessly focused on delivering enterprise software products to enable our customers to drive lower carbon fuel adoption. The company has raised $50M from leading venture capital and strategic investors.

As a Senior Engagement Manager based in Singapore or Japan, you will be a cornerstone of Chooose’s APAC Customer Operations organization. You will partner closely with enterprise customers in the aviation, energy, and logistics sectors — including major APAC carriers and fuel suppliers — enabling them to build and operate high-integrity SAF programs on the Chooose platform.

Working in close collaboration with the broader Customer organization, you will own day-to-day relationships with our largest APAC customers, guiding them from initial implementation through go-live and long-term program success. You will also serve as a key voice of the APAC region internally, shaping how Chooose adapts its products and processes to serve this market.
