Coupang, Inc., a Fortune 150 technology company headquartered in the United States, has strengthened its presence in India with the opening of a new office in Hyderabad in July 2025. This expansion marks a major milestone for Coupang’s India Development Center, which has become the company’s fastest-growing global technology hub.

The Hyderabad office reflects Coupang’s ongoing investments in deep tech, core system ownership, and generative AI innovation, reinforcing its role as a key driver of the company’s global operations. This development follows the announcement of Coupang’s strong Q2 2025 financial performance, with net revenues of $8.5 billion (INR 70,800 crore, up 16% YoY; 19% FX-neutral) and operating income of $149 million (INR 1,240 crore).

"We continue to deliver strong growth and profitability by staying focused on building cutting-edge technology and customer experiences," stated Harshal Wanjari, Vice President of Engineering at Coupang. "India is central to our vision as we scale our engineering capabilities and global footprint."

Since its inception in late 2023, the India Development Center has rapidly evolved into Coupang’s most dynamic engineering hub. India-based teams now lead core systems powering Coupang’s end-to-end commerce ecosystem and drive innovation across advanced AI and generative AI.

According to Himanshu Verma, Vice President of Engineering and India Site Head, "The India Development Center is central to our mission of building world-class technology that delivers unmatched customer experiences. We are creating a powerhouse of innovation, pioneering Gen AI applications, and building the future of commerce with India’s top engineering talent."

Coupang has also invested in senior leadership with expertise in AI, cloud infrastructure, e-commerce systems, and large-scale data platforms, further strengthening its innovation capabilities. The company continues to hire aggressively across its Bengaluru and Hyderabad offices.

Sunil Sharma, Senior Director of Engineering, highlighted: "We are attracting top-tier talent with a passion for impact. Working at Coupang means solving real-world customer problems at scale and owning projects end-to-end."

Engineering teams in India are deeply integrated into Coupang’s global operations, leading mission-critical areas such as fulfillment and logistics, finance platforms, labor management systems, fraud detection, customer service, cloud infrastructure, site reliability engineering, and Coupang Eats. Generative AI is increasingly applied across these domains to enhance efficiency, automation, and personalized customer experiences.

With annual revenues surpassing USD 30 billion in 2024 and recognition as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in 2025, Coupang continues to disrupt retail, restaurant delivery, video streaming, and fintech industries. Its vertically integrated infrastructure—powered by machine learning, AI, and cloud technologies developed by global teams including those in India—enables transformative innovations such as overnight delivery.

Coupang reaffirms its commitment to positioning India as a strategic technology hub, providing opportunities for top engineering talent to contribute to global-scale solutions.
