I worked with Puffy for years from the outside. Here’s what I learned when I joined the team in our LA hub.

Ever feel like your best ideas are stuck in a corporate traffic jam, waiting for endless approvals? I've been there. Before joining Puffy as SVP of Operations & Distribution in 2021, I spent years in a large corporate structure where speed was a constant challenge.


But for all those years, I was also one of Puffy’s key suppliers. I had a unique view from the outside, and I saw a company that operated differently.


I saw a leadership team that led with integrity and a genuine commitment to their partners. It was a clear signal that this was a culture built on trust, not just transactions.


The Turning Point: Why I Joined My Own Client

When my previous company was sold, I had a choice. I could have moved on to another supplier role, but a conversation with Puffy's founders about their ambition to build a premium e-Commerce brand changed everything.

I realized I didn't want to just supply the mission anymore. I wanted to help lead it.


The Real Meaning of Autonomy: A Pandemic Case Study

My first big test came almost immediately: expand our supply chain during the peak of the pandemic. As an external partner, I would have been handcuffed.


Inside Puffy, I was given true ownership.


🔑 The Mission: Ensure our customers experienced no delays, despite global shortages. 

🔑 The Plan: I had the autonomy to work directly with every critical team—from Customer Service to Order Processing to Procurement —to present a unified vision and execute, fast. 

🔑 The Result: We onboarded two new major suppliers and started shipping Puffy products in under 90 days.


That’s what happens when a company trusts you to make decisions and move. It's the difference between talking about impact and actually delivering it.


Inside the LA Hub: This is How We Work

This spirit of ownership is the engine of our Los Angeles office. It’s a cross-functional hub where ambition meets collaboration.

What we're building in LA is a team where every role—from Customer Service and HR to Procurement—has a direct line of sight to the impact they're making. We are a team of diverse ideas and skill sets, all striving for a common goal.


We stumble sometimes, but we’re always there to pick each other up.


My Advice for Ambitious Talent

If you feel stuck or unable to make a real impact in your current role, my advice is simple: Align yourself with an organization that doesn’t just say they trust you but proves it by giving you the autonomy and resources to fuel your passion.


That’s the opportunity we offer. If you're ready to own your work and accelerate with AI, our team in the USA is waiting for you.

A Promise from Our CEO

Arthur Andreasyan, Puffy CEO, Founder & Forbes Council Member

Hi there,


If you're here, you're weighing your next move. Let me tell you what that move looks like at Puffy. Your trajectory here will outpace anywhere else. I'm personally committed to that. We've built a system for it, from how we hire to how we develop leaders. We were AI-first before it was an industry talking point, and every team member here works with tools and technology most companies won't touch for another 2-3 years. What takes 4-5 years at most companies happens in 1-2 here.


That belief in people is how Puffy started. When I founded this company in 2017, it was sparked by a simple question: 'What would it feel like to sleep on a cloud?' But the real conviction underneath was this: we could outshine industry giants on a fraction of their budget with the right product and an exceptional team.


Eight years down the line, we stand as a multi-award-winning e-commerce business, proudly supported by hundreds of thousands of passionate customers. Yet, our core culture and ethos have remained the same.


We're restless, perpetually hungry, fast-paced, and AI-native to the core. We possess an unwavering belief in our ability to outperform competitors, regardless of their size. If you're seeking an environment that's not afraid to challenge convention or think differently, Puffy could be the perfect fit for you.


The people who join us don't just get a job. They get a legacy.

Looking forward to working with you,


Arthur Andreasyan

Puffy CEO, Founder & Forbes Council Member
