About This Role

What you'd actually do
- Pull espresso, steam milk, and pour latte art all day — on a Slayer Steam, not a super-automatic
- Brew pourovers on a Kalita Wave, V60, and Aeropress with precision and care
- Work café shifts in our River Forest shop and/or catering events across Chicagoland
- Make every person who walks in feel genuinely welcome — not scripted, not forced
- Talk to guests about coffee like you genuinely find it interesting (because you do)
- Keep the bar and café spotless — clean as you go, always
- Handle equipment like it's yours
