Barista

The Producer Coffee Studio is a local coffee shop that believes in the harmony between caffeine and creativity- blending two of our passions into one place! Though different, music and coffee are all about one thing: the process. When making coffee, the blend of beans, roasts and grinds compose a good drink. In mixing music, the notes and harmony are important to make a good set. Both require balance, stability, and, well, good taste.

We are looking for full-time and part-time baristas that have a passion for coffee. We welcome both experienced baristas and those with 1 years working in a hospitality/service environment. Baristas are responsible for various duties including but not limited to:
