About the role

San Francisco’s Only 24/7 Café

Location: Ground Floor, Corgi HQ — San Francisco (9 Claude Ln)
Position: Full-Time & Part-Time Baristas
Compensation: $25/hour + tips

About Corgi & The Corgi Café

Corgi is rebuilding the $1 trillion insurance industry from the ground up.

The Corgi Café is an extension of that mindset—but for the city. We built San Francisco’s only 24/7 café as a space for builders, creatives, founders, night owls, and locals to work, connect, and recharge at any hour. Whether it’s 10 AM or 3 AM, the café is designed to feel focused, welcoming, and alive.

The Role: Barista & Café Ambassador

We’re looking for passionate, reliable, and community-driven baristas to form the core team at The Corgi Café. You’ll be responsible not just for great coffee, but for helping create the atmosphere that makes this space special.

You’ll play a key role in shaping the café’s culture from day one.

What You’ll Do

  • Prepare and serve a curated menu of specialty coffee and creative drinks.

  • Create a welcoming, productive environment for a diverse crowd—from AI engineers to neighborhood regulars.

  • Run point on your shift: customer experience, flow, cleanliness, and efficiency.

  • Handle POS transactions, inventory checks, and daily café upkeep.

  • Act as an ambassador for the Corgi mission—understanding why the café exists and sharing that energy with customers.

Who You Are

  • 1+ years of barista experience in a high-quality or high-volume environment.

  • Comfortable working late nights, early mornings, or unconventional hours.

  • Reliable, self-directed, and confident owning a shift.

  • Friendly, calm under pressure, and community-oriented.

  • Curious about technology, startups, and the future being built upstairs.

If the idea of a 3 AM rush energizes you instead of scares you, you’ll fit right in.
