  • Assist with inventory counts and communicate ordering needs in advance.
  • Receive, inspect, organize, and properly store green coffee and supplies.
  • Help control waste and ensure efficient use of coffee and materials.
Equipment and Workspace Care
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe roasting and production area.
  • Follow all food safety, workplace safety, and sanitation standards.
  • Perform regular cleaning and basic maintenance of roasting equipment, grinders, scales, bins, and production tools.
  • Report equipment issues, safety concerns, or quality problems promptly.
Team and Operational Support
  • Communicate clearly with caf managers, baristas, wholesale clients, and leadership regarding production needs.
  • Support training for baristas or team members on coffee knowledge, brewing standards, and product quality as needed.
  • Assist with coffee tastings, events, menu development, and special projects when needed.
  • Represent the coffee program with professionalism, care, and pride.
Qualifications
  • Minimum of 12 years of coffee roasting experience preferred.
  • Experience operating commercial coffee roasting equipment preferred.
  • Familiarity with roast profiling, cupping, green coffee evaluation, and production roasting.
  • Experience with roasting software such as Cropster or similar systems is a plus.
  • Strong understanding of coffee sourcing, processing methods, brewing methods, and flavor development.
  • Ability to follow established systems while also offering thoughtful input for improvement.
  • Strong attention to detail, organization, and consistency.
  • Ability to work independently and manage a production schedule.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
