Koeeru Employee Interview: Cuong Ngo

February 24, 2023

What is it like to work at a growing startup like Koeeru? With an international team in two countries, we are probably a bit different from most Japanese companies. To give an idea of what it’s like, we are conducting a series of interviews with Koeeru employees. First up is Cuong Ngo, one of our senior engineers in our Vietnam office.

Please introduce yourself.

Interviewer: Koeeru Intern, Sho Furuta

My name is Cuong. I was born in 1992 and my university major was banking. I used to work in banking for 2 years, and after that, I entered Koeeru. I’m not sure about my official position right now because it is mixed but I may be a technical leader. It’s not different from other members, or other teams, but most of my tasks are doing engineering things, and developing a lot of products. Besides, as an engineer, I join other team members. When I entered Koeeru, there were only limited members, and we couldn’t work the way I wanted to. As our team grew over the years, we started to develop new products and services.

Why did you choose to work at Koeeru?

Because Koeeru is a startup company, the environment is flexible, and it is especially good for creative people. We can apply anything in our imagination. I used to work in banking for 2 years. The environment was very different then. I prefer this style of the company. Besides when I was talking with Soji, I was impressed with his knowledge, his plans for the company, and everything about the business. So, I decided to join Koeeru.

Regarding the working style in Koeeru, what difficulties have you faced?

Koeeru is not quite new but it’s still a startup company, so we play many different roles. For example, as an engineer, I handle some IT jobs, but I sometimes also do PM tasks. There are many different kinds of work in a single position. That is the difference from the environment in a regular company.  When we have a lot of things to do, we cannot concentrate on one thing. We only have a limited time and have so many things to do. That is the difficulty of working at Koeeru. But I think it can be improved.

What are the best parts of working at Koeeru?

I think I said before things such as being able to apply my creativity. I also think one of the best parts of Koeeru is my colleagues and everyone in the company. I can learn a lot from them. Everyone is friendly. We are not only a company but also a big family.
