IPO & IR Associate

Mission of the Role

We're looking for someone to help build Seoul Robotics' path into the capital markets. We're preparing for a KOSDAQ technology-track IPO, and we need someone to own the full capital markets workstream — IPO execution, disclosure & governance, and IR. Join us at the Associate level and build your own track, or come in as a Senior to drive the full cycle. Either way, you'll work directly with our lead underwriter, the Korea Exchange (KRX), external counsel, and global investors — sitting at the center of the company's most important strategic conversations.

You don't need to walk in with every skill already mastered. What we need is someone who can take a fuzzy problem, define it, learn what's missing, and see it through. Ownership and learning agility are what we hire for — everything else, we'll build together.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive the KOSDAQ technology-track listing — work with the lead underwriter and manage KRX review (pre-consultation, expert panel, on-site due diligence); prepare and own the listing application and supporting documents.

• Pre-IPO investment management — review investment agreements, amendment letters, and governance clauses (drag/tag-along) in coordination with external counsel.

• Hands-on experience in at least one of: IPO execution, public-company disclosure, IR, or shareholder/board operations.
  • Ownership mindset — you take a fuzzy problem, define it yourself, and drive it to closure without being asked twice.
  • Learning agility — you're comfortable diving into unfamiliar regulation, accounting, or commercial structures and making them your own.
  • Solid financial modeling and valuation fundamentals.
  • Strong business writing in Korean.
