Perfecting the basics. Paving new paths.
At Lever Coffee, we’re not about following trends.
If you are looking for a place where you can build relationships, explore underused talents, and make a difference every day, apply now to joWe go back to the basics and lever-pull each shot of our espresso so our signature sips hit all the right notes. And once those basics are perfected, we look to the future to see what’s next for coffee craft.
Lever Coffee is looking for a head barista and shop manager to “dial in” our coffee craft and shop operations.
We’re a community-centered coffee house in Alamo, California that honors our roots by celebrating the time-honored tradition of coffee cultivation by putting care into every cup. We curate a lineup of rotating roasting partners that share our commitment to sourcing sustainable beans, carefully roasted to bring out the fullest tasting notes. Our in-house store features partnerships with local artisans for handmade mugs, leather coffee sleeves, and treats that invite conversation.
We’re looking for someone as passionate about coffee as we are.
At Lever, you won’t just be waiting on the floor for a customer to come in. You’ll be part of a lively community that greets everyone who walks through the door as if they’re part of our coffee family (because they are). You’ll be leading a team of passionate baristas interested in perfecting their craft–and soaking up all the coffee expertise that you have to offer. And you’ll be on the frontlines when it comes to forming new roasting partnerships, developing new drinks, seeking out artisan partners, and fostering the culture of our ever-growing Lever community.
Compensation: Highly competitive over market.
You’re bringing a lot to the table. That’s why we believe in paying you competitively.
