Hello! I’m Hugo Cornejo.
I’ve spent my career building products, teams and companies, but I still love making things myself.
I started out as a software engineer because I liked the idea of making computers do exactly what I told them to do. A few years later I left code behind and got more interested in what we were building, and why.
I’ve been lucky to work on some pretty special things. I joined Monzo on day one as the first designer. Back then design meant the whole thing: product, brand, research, marketing, and yes, I designed the original hot coral card myself. I built and led that team as the company grew from zero to millions of customers.
More recently I co-founded Packfleet, where I led product and design across the whole thing: from the apps our merchants and drivers used to the colourful wraps of our vans.
Now I’m taking a bit of time to work on my own projects, but I’m also open to working with founders and teams when there’s a good fit.
