Company Introduction

We exist to wow our customers. We know we’re doing the right thing when we hear our customers say, "How did we ever live without Coupang?" Born out of an obsession to make shopping, eating, and living easier than ever, we’re collectively disrupting the multi-billion-dollar e-commerce industry from the ground up. We are one of the fastest-growing e-commerce companies that established an unparalleled reputation for being a dominant and reliable force in South Korean commerce.

We are proud to have the best of both worlds — a startup culture with the resources of a large global public company. This fuels us to continue our growth and launch new services at the speed we have been since our inception. We are all entrepreneurs surrounded by opportunities to drive new initiatives and innovations. At our core, we are bold and ambitious people that like to get our hands dirty and make a hands-on impact. At Coupang, you will see yourself, your colleagues, your team, and the company grow every day.

Our mission to build the future of commerce is real. We push the boundaries of what’s possible to solve problems and break traditional tradeoffs. Join Coupang now to create an epic experience in this always-on, high-tech, and hyper-connected world.

Role Overview

Coupang Rocket Growth is a Coupang Fulfillment business that enables sellers to offer best-in-class delivery and post-purchase experience to their customers. With the Rocket Growth business, sellers’ products are delivered to customers via our world-class Rocket delivery network. Rocket Growth is the fastest-growing team in Coupang and has an exciting roadmap of products and features in the pipeline.

Our mission is to provide Coupang sellers with the utmost convenience of selling and offer Coupang customers the best available selection and the lowest possible price.

You will be working in a fast-paced environment along with a team of smart and passionate global engineers to design and implement various systems to meet the needs of the Rocket Growth business. You will also have direct ownership of new features for improving the Marketplace's scalability, reliability, availability, extensibility, and performance. We care about both delighting customers and building high-quality software, and we are looking for seniors with a proven record of accomplishment in designing and building large-scale distributed systems.
