This is a quota-carrying individual contributor role based in Seoul, reporting into APAC sales leadership. You will join an established Korean team with live customers, a working partner ecosystem, and clear deal playbooks. The role is added headcount to extend coverage as market demand outpaces current team capacity. You will have reference customers to sell against, engaged partners, in-region pre-sales support, and a team that understands how deals close in Korea.

- Work through the established partner and reseller ecosystem and alongside the NVIDIA alliance in market
- Partner closely with in-region pre-sales rather than handing off technical conversations
- Contribute to the wider Korea team by sharing intelligence and supporting colleagues on accounts where you have relationships
- Forecast accurately and maintain CRM data the business can rely on
Requirements:
- Track record of enterprise infrastructure or data platform sales in Korea with evidenced results
- Background in storage, data infrastructure, AI compute, databases, or adjacent technical platforms
- Experience selling into large Korean enterprise, semiconductor, telco, or platform accounts with existing network in at least some of them
- Credibility with both technical buyers and economic buyers
- Ability to work well inside a team rather than needing to own the whole market alone
- Experience selling through and with channel partners
- Native Korean and working English (wider team spans APAC and USA)
Useful but not essential:
- Exposure to GPU, HPC, or AI infrastructure buying cycles
- Experience at a high-growth or pre-IPO company
- Existing relationships within the NVIDIA partner ecosystem in Korea
