About the job

Introduction
About Us
Founded in 2013, Mercari is a leading C2C marketplace based in Japan, driven by our mission to "Create value in a global marketplace where anyone can buy & sell." Since our inception, we have evolved into a prominent global player, achieving remarkable milestones such as being the first Japanese tech unicorn before our IPO in 2018. Our journey continues as we strive to expand our presence and services worldwide.
Over the years, the Mercari Group has continually invested in our people and technology, transitioning from Japan's top C2C marketplace to new markets like the U. S. We have also introduced innovative services like Merpay, a mobile payment platform aimed at fostering a society where everyone can achieve their dreams through a comprehensive ecosystem, encompassing payment services and credit facilitation. Today, the Mercari Group encompasses various subsidiary businesses, including logistics, B2C platforms, blockchain, and sports team management.
As we aim to enhance our services for a global audience, we recognize the need for top-tier talent. This is the motivation behind launching our India Center of Excellence. Together, we can rise to international challenges and pave the way for Mercari to become a successful global tech enterprise.
