The 60 Second Podcast
Jason Yoong. COO of Ethan Evans VP, ex-Amazon, ex-Startup ($8M Seed)
Jason Yoong has built and led billion-dollar businesses, commanded $400M+ marketing budgets, and helped scale a startup from the ground up. Now as COO of Level Up, he’s tackling a problem most ambitious professionals face: how to get real, unfiltered career advice from someone who’s actually done it. In this quick but powerful episode, Jason shares the mission behind Level Up and the career credentials of co-founder Ethan Evans—an Amazon legend.
Tune in to hear what’s next in the evolution of executive growth—and why it’s never “not my job.”
Matt McCoy: What problem does your company solve?
Jason Yoong: When was the last time you got unfiltered, straight-truth career advice from a big tech executive who's actually walked the walk—and got promoted from senior manager to director to vice president?
The answer is never, because I couldn't find that resource—and many people I know couldn’t either. So that’s the problem we’re solving with Level Up.
We want to make it your go-to resource for candid career advice, solutions, and community—with Ethan Evans.
Ethan is a retired Amazon vice president. He was there for 15 years. Prior to that, he spent 12 years at three different startups. He holds 70+ patents, has led global teams of 800, reviewed over 10,000 resumes, interviewed 2,500+ people, and made over 1,000 hires.
And a fun fact: Ethan actually wrote part of the Amazon Leadership Principle Ownership. The phrase “a leader never says, ‘that’s not my job’”—that’s Ethan.
So what we’re building is content and career advice from Ethan, from expert guests, and also a community where you can network and build relationships with like-minded people.
