Toss Payments Launches Large-Scale Open Recruitment... "Industry's Top Level"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Toss Payments announced on the 19th that it will conduct a large-scale open recruitment.

On the same day, Toss Payments launched a recruitment website and stated that it will hire over 50 experienced professionals across 21 positions including engineering, data, infrastructure, design, and security. There are no restrictions on educational background or major, and applicants without experience in payment gateway (PG) or simple payment sectors are also eligible to apply.

The recruitment process will be conducted online considering the COVID-19 situation, and will be completed within three weeks from application submission to announcement of successful candidates. Applications will be accepted until the 1st of next month, followed by a first-round job interview and a second-round cultural fit interview, after which the final successful candidates will be announced. Evaluation results for each stage will be individually notified within three days.

New hires will receive industry-leading compensation up to 1.5 times their previous annual salary, along with stock grants (RSU) of Toss Payments or signing bonuses. Additionally, they will be provided with welfare benefits and working conditions equivalent to those at Toss.

This open recruitment was conducted to quickly reinforce specialized personnel in each field due to the company's rapid growth. Toss Payments, which was launched last August after acquiring LG Uplus’s electronic payment business division, has shown more than fourfold rapid growth, increasing its workforce from 27 at launch to over 130 as of this month.

As of this month, Toss Payments’ cumulative transaction volume has reached approximately 145 trillion KRW, with an average monthly transaction volume exceeding 2 trillion KRW. It also has over 80,000 affiliated merchants including Google, eBay Korea, Samsung Electronics, Baedal Minjok, Market Kurly, Tmon, and Costco.

Kim Minpyo, CEO of Toss Payments, said, “Toss Payments already has outstanding colleagues who are revitalizing the domestic electronic payment industry and creating a new chapter in online payments. We look forward to applications from those who will ride the technology PG rocket and drive innovation in the online payment market through this open recruitment.”

Toss Payments will hold a live Q&A session with current employees for open recruitment applicants. The session will be held online from 7:30 PM on the 28th, and applications can be made through the recruitment website. Applicants who complete the open recruitment application will receive separate email guidance regarding the session.
