About the Company:

Our client is an innovative brand in the global atomization and vaping sector, part of GAP VAPE Technology Co., Ltd., based in Shenzhen. With operations in Jakarta for its Indonesia branch, they specialize in independently developing affordable, user-focused vape devices, emphasizing sleek design, advanced nano-coil technology, long-lasting batteries, and robustness.

It traces its roots back to 2013 when its parent company, Joiway Technology, was founded in Guangzhou, China, marking the start of its journey in consumer electronics and vaping devices. However, the JOIWAY brand itself was launched later—in early 2020—when the founder, re-registered her company as GAP VAPE Technology Co., Ltd. and introduced JOIWAY as its own R&D-driven vape brand.

As a fast-growing, tech-driven brand, JOIWAY offers a dynamic environment for professionals in R&D, product design, marketing, digital content, and operations. With recent Jakarta-based hires, they’re scaling key functions and looking for vision-aligned talent.
