About Corgi

  • Corgi is an AI-powered insurance company designed for tech startups.
  • The company has raised $108M and holds regulatory approval as a licensed carrier.
  • The platform is built on Django, utilizes Stripe for payments, and features AI-driven underwriting.
  • Corgi is currently scaling operations into the UK and EU.

The Role

  • Seeking a Fast Engineer in London who excels at building and shipping products independently.
  • The ideal candidate is not a traditional senior engineer who requires a detailed roadmap, but rather someone who has taken ideas from concept to live deployment.
  • Evidence of side projects, weekend builds, or any shipped products with real users or traffic is highly valued.

What We Are Looking For

  • Hungry, high-energy individuals willing to work at a fast, startup pace.
  • Proven track record of independently building and shipping real projects.
  • Ability to deliver results quickly, measured in hours and days rather than sprints and quarters.
  • Comfortable working across the technology stack and adaptable to various challenges.
  • Possesses strong opinions but is open to change when presented with better ideas.
  • Demonstrates low ego, driven by a desire to prove themselves through results rather than titles.

How We Work

  • Prioritize making decisions quickly over waiting for perfect answers.
  • New products and process changes are shipped regularly, not just quarterly.
  • Emphasize a ship-and-iterate approach rather than prolonged review cycles.
  • Maintain high intensity during product pushes, with no significant drop-off during quieter periods.
  • Operate with a public-first mindset; decisions are made openly, not in private messages.
  • Internal competition is encouraged, with strong performers raising the standard for everyone.

This is a build seat, not a coast seat.

What Gets Someone Removed Quickly

  • Engaging in office politics, dodging responsibility, or gossiping.
  • Taking direct feedback personally instead of constructively.
  • Creating unnecessary overhead rather than streamlining processes.
  • Failing to follow through promptly after committing to deadlines.

How to Apply

  • Submit links to your GitHub, personal website, live projects, or anything you have built and shipped.
  • Do not send CVs.
  • Email applications to: sergio@corgi.com
  • If you cannot provide evidence of shipped work, this role is not a fit.

Location & Compensation

  • London-based position; on-site or
