Senior🎓
Top SchoolSeonggyu Lee is a seasoned technologist and founder with 12 years of experience building search, recommendation, and NLP-driven products from infrastructure to reactive front-ends. After early roles at SK C&C working on telecom systems and consulting, he deepened his expertise with an M.S. in Web Science at KAIST and launched Snippod in 2015 to rethink how content is discovered and shared.
