Who we’re looking for
We’re searching for a leader with an unstoppable drive and a passion for growth to join our team of high performers. We’re veterans, entrepreneurs, and coaches united by a quest to help people hydrate and recover with the best products on the planet. We’re a team of A players committed to doing something important with our careers in a way that positively impacts the world. We hold a high standard for ourselves and each other, and we expect exactly the same of you. We’ll welcome you with open arms and will have your back in every way as long as you remain hungry, smart, and humble. This is who you are as a person:
  • Analytical - you’re obsessed with data and use it to glean clear, salient ideas from complex information and clearly communicate it to drive action and better results
  • Strategic - you’re full of creative ideas and big picture thinking, but you’re also process-driven and highly organized when it comes to execution and managing a team
  • Resilient - you’ve got grit and know how to conquer adversity
  • Competitive - probably a former athlete with a current fitness addiction 
  • Hungry and coachable - you’ve got a strong appetite for personal growth 
  • Ambitious - you’ve got big dreams and will stop at nothing to achieve them
  • Self-starter - you embrace independence and accountability to deliver results
  • Impatient with a bias for action and results - you move fast and get things done
  • Highly organized and attentive to detail - you don’t let things slip through the cracks
  • Successful - with the track record to prove it
  • Passionate - about meeting goals, moving fast, and fitness/wellness
  • Reliable - you never break your word, ever
  • Resourceful - you know how to make a lot from a little

What it’s like to work at O2
We have three values at O2, and we take them very seriously: Honesty, Humility, and Hustle. Our environment is only suited for people who “exceed expectations” and enjoy the fast-paced, high performance culture that comes with working alongside other A players. You’ll be doing the hard work of building a business, and you’ll get experience growing a company that will put you miles ahead of your peers. However, this is not a job for the faint of heart, and you will be expected to demonstrate your drive and commitment on a daily basis. We work remotely, and we operate with high degrees of autonomy. At the same time, we don’t mess around - we have been referred to as the “Seal Team Six of CPG companies.” We have a blast when we’re winning and absolutely HATE losing. If you’re one of us, then you know the feeling.

How we operate
  • We work with the highest levels of Honesty, Humility, and Hustle - always
  • We run through walls and do whatever it takes to get the job done successfully
  • We aren’t bottlenecks - we move fast and don’t let others be bottlenecks either
  • We do what we say we’re going to do - if we commit to something, we honor it
  • We pay attention to detail - how we do anything is how we do everything
  • We operate like professionals - we’re on time, prepared, and ready to work hard
  • We optimize like crazy - we relentlessly learn and get better through data and feedback
  • We take extreme ownership for our work - our job isn’t done after we send an email
  • We’re organized - this is how we move fast without letting letting things slip 
  • We ask for help/feedback/approval early so as to avoid a scramble

  • Don’t contact us if
    • You’re bored and just looking for a paycheck
    • You aren’t passionate about our brand or what we’re building
    • You’re not a team player and don’t work well with others
    • You need to have someone managing you closely in order to be productive
    • You don’t love health, wellness, and fitness
    • This is going to be “just a job” for you

    Do contact us if
    • You want experience that will catapult you ahead of your peers
    • You want to get in with a rapidly growing company at the ground level
    • You want to work with other high performers who will push you to perform at your best
    • You’re a good listener and a fast learner
    • You’re entrepreneurial and work well independently 
    • You want a job where your actions and results will stand out and shine
    • You want to be a part of a company with a soul doing something special
