As some of you know, I am an early investor and board member of Coupang.com. We are the leading flash/deal site in Korea. The company has experienced amazing growth getting to a $700 million+ revenue run rate, full net income profitable with over 12 million subscribers and more than 700 employees – all done in less than 2 years. The opportunity for the next great ecommerce company is wide open in Korea and were are excited to lead the way.
We are looking for Korean Americans who are interested in going back to Korea (hq is in Seoul) and working for Coupang in senior roles. Ideally they are bilingual and have come from Internet/ecommerce backgrounds. However, we also are hiring people that are looking to leave investment banking or consulting gigs. We are hiring for all different types of roles from strategy and BD to marketing and product and are just looking for smart and driven folks.
Honestly, I think this is an amazing opportunity. If you know of anyone, please send them my way. You can reach me at ben@bensun.net. Happy to give them more background.
Thanks again!
