Sea operates three distinct business units—Shopee (ecommerce), Garena (games and esports), and Monee (digital payments)—across Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and Brazil. The tech stack reflects scale across multiple product domains: machine learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX), distributed systems (Kafka, Kubernetes), and polyglot infrastructure (Go, Python, C++, Java). Hiring is finance-heavy (38 of 111 active roles), driven by projects around revenue recognition, accounting standards adoption, and month-end close automation—typical of a public company managing rapid growth across jurisdictions.
Sea is a Singapore-based public technology company operating three regional businesses. Shopee, launched in 2015 as a mobile-first ecommerce platform, processed close to 11 billion orders in 2024 with GMV exceeding $100 billion.

The company operates across 5,001–10,000 employees, headquartered in Singapore, with active hiring across Southeast Asia, Brazil, and India.
