In 2010, Jia debuted as a member of the girl group Miss A. The 4-member group officially launched on July 1, 2010.

Jia made several appearances in music videos, including M&D's debut single "Close Ur Mouth," and had cameo roles in Dream High and Dream High 2. During Miss A's hiatus in 2012, Jia participated in fashion shows and magazines, performed with singer Ivy, and appeared on the variety show Let's Go Dream Team 2 in Vietnam.

Between 2013 and 2015, she co-hosted MBC's C-Radio radio show with Fei and Super Junior's Zhou Mi.

Her acting career began with a role in the 2014 Chinese television series One and a Half Summer alongside 2PM's Nichkhun, and she starred in the 2015 Chinese film The Third Way of Love, alongside Song Seung-heon and Liu Yifei.

Her final album with Miss A, Colors, was released on March 30, 2015. She departed from both Miss A and JYP Entertainment in May 2016 after deciding not to renew her contract.[2][5]

Her fourth single, "Mood," was released on December 19, 2017, featuring Jackson Wang from Got7.[8][9]

Meng Jia continued her solo career with the release of her fifth single, "Weapon," on March 20, 2018,[10] and her sixth single, "Free," on June 4, 2018.[11] Her seventh single, "Liwai (例外)," was announced in September 2018.[12]

In 2019, she left Banana Culture Entertainment and continued her solo activities.[13] In 2020, she joined Hunan TV's reality show "Sisters Who Makes Waves." In the finale, she won the "2020 Most Loved Treasure Sister" award and placed third, joining the group "X-SISTER."

In January 2021, Meng Jia released her single "Glass Wall (透明空間)." On June 26 of the same year, she launched her personal brand, Random Experiment (Re 隨機試驗). Later, on November 26, she introduced her first Chinese-style dance single, "Oriental (東方)."
