About NCSOFT America NCSOFT America is seeking an Executive Interpreter to support clear, accurate, and confidential communication between Korean- and English-speaking stakeholders. This role will primarily focus on real-time interpretation in executive meetings and business-critical discussions, while also supporting translation and light project coordination needs across the organization as needed.   Position Overview The executive interpreter will participate directly in executive meetings and business-critical discussions to provide real-time Korean-English interpretation, ensuring that tone, intent, context, and nuance are accurately conveyed.
