Job description

NOW HIRING — SMASH BURGER COOK
Outdoor Kitchen ·are arrowhead California 
This isn't your average burger job.
We're not a big chain. We're not a franchise. We're a brand that people are going to be talking about — and we're just getting started. We cook outside, we cook loud, and we cook for people who actually care about what they eat.
We need someone on the grill who matches that energy.
If you love food, love people, and you're not afraid to sweat for something you're proud of — read on.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
THE ROLE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Smash Burger Cook · Outdoor Kitchen
Full-Time / Part-Time Available
Pay: $18–$19/hr plus tips 
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT YOU'LL DO EVERY SHIFT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Smash, sear, and build burgers to spec — every single order, every single time. No shortcuts, no slop.
• Own your station. Keep it clean, keep it stocked, keep it moving.
• Be the face of the kitchen. Our setup is open and guests can see you working — your energy is part of the experience.
• Greet, engage, and make customers feel like they made the right choice coming to us.
• Maintain food safety and temperature standards like your reputation depends on it — because it does.
• Work side by side with a crew that shows up and holds each other down.
• Handle high-volume rushes without losing your composure or your quality.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT YOU BRING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• The physical stamina to be on your feet for long shifts in an outdoor kitchen — heat, hustle, and all
• A natural ability to connect with people — you don't need to be told to smile
• The discipline to work clean and work fast without being micromanaged
• Kitchen or food service experience is a plus — but we will train the right person
• A food handler's certification (or the ability to get one before your start date)
• Reliability — if you say you'll be there, you're there
• Pride in your craft — even if it's a burger, you make it like it matters
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT YOU GET
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✓ Competitive hourly pay — $18/hr to start
✓ Free meals every shift
✓ Flexible scheduling that works around your life
✓ A team that actually has your back
✓ Real growth opportunity — we're expanding and we promote from within
✓ A front-row seat to a brand that's going places fast
This is the kind of job where you show up Day 1 as a cook and leave a year later as a key part of something bigger than a burger.
We're not looking for someone to fill a spot.
We're looking for someone who wants to be part of the story.
Be nice. Work hard. Feed people well.
TO APPLY:
DM us or email info@thejerkgrill.com  with your name, a little about your experience, and one sentence on why you want in.
