  • Previous kitchen experience preferred, but weโ€™ll train the right person

Shifts Available:
  • Mornings:ย 6:00 AM โ€“ 3:00 PM
  • Weekend availability is required

Skills & Attributes:
  • Can multitask while staying focused and clean
  • Able to follow recipes and plate dishes with consistency
  • Strong communicator โ€” speaks up, listens, and works well in a team
  • Keeps calm under pressure and doesnโ€™t crack when it gets busy
  • Hustles hard without sacrificing quality
  • Willing toย learn and rotate across prep, cook, and plating stations


Bonus Points (Preferred but not required):
  • Prior experience in a restaurant kitchen, fast-casual, or food truck
  • Knowledge of fryers, griddles, ovens, and food safety procedures
  • Can handle a sharp knife and a hot ticket line without flinching
  • Familiarity with online order platforms (DoorDash, Toast, etc.)

REQUIREMENTS
  • Must be at least 15 years old
  • Able to stand and move quickly for long periods (6+ hour shifts)
  • Must be able to lift 25โ€“50 lbs (boxes of ingredients, fryer baskets, etc.)
  • Reliable transportation to and from work
  • Willing and able to work early mornings and weekends
  • Comfortable in fast-paced, hot kitchen environments
