About Corgi
Corgi is a full-stack insurance carrier building better, faster insurance products for startups. We’re not a broker, so we underwrite and issue policies directly, with fewer handoffs and less friction. Cutting out intermediaries lets us tailor coverage to how companies actually operate and price risk more efficiently.
We form and operate insurance companies from the ground up, using AI and software to automate the workflows traditionally handled by large teams of brokers, underwriters, TPAs, accountants, and operations staff. Our goal is not to incrementally improve insurance, it is to rebuild the industry infrastructure itself.
We move quickly, care deeply about talent density, and hire people who want to solve difficult problems with unusually high ownership.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Full Stack Software Engineer to help build the systems that power our insurance companies and internal operations.
You will work closely with product, operations, and leadership to design and ship software across underwriting, claims, finance, compliance, and internal tooling. This is a highly hands-on role for someone who enjoys building quickly, owning outcomes, and working on problems with real business impact.
This role is based in our London office.

Who You Are

- Comfortable working in ambiguity and moving quickly.
- High ownership and bias toward execution.

- Experienced in Typescript, Python, React, Fast API, Django, Flask, AWS
- Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and APIs.
- Experimented with personal projects of your own.
