Achilles Coffee | Full-Time (6:30 am – 3:00 pm)

About Achilles Coffee

From a single cart to five thriving cafes in San Diego County, Achilles Coffee is on an exciting 18-month growth trajectory. We’re passionate about specialty coffee, community, and teamwork. Now, we’re hiring a Shift Lead Barista at our Solana Beach location to step up when our Store Manager is off and help drive exceptional guest experiences every day.

Why You’ll Love This Role

Leadership in Action: Own the café during manager off-days—lead the team, make decisions, and keep service running smoothly.
Hands-On Growth: Collaborate with your Store Manager and the Marketing team on promotions, local events, and seasonal menu rollouts.
Skill Development: Receive ongoing training in advanced latte art, equipment calibration, and small-group leadership coaching.
Fast-Track Opportunities: Exceptional Shift Leads will be first in line for future Store Manager openings as we expand.

Key Responsibilities

Team Supervision: Lead a crew of 3-5 baristas and 2-3 chefs: delegate tasks, troubleshoot service issues, and mentor new hires.
Operations Management: Assist and oversee open and close duties at the café; assist the store manager, inventory counts, and restocking.
Customer Experience: Maintain on-brand service standards—address guest feedback in real time and ensure a clean, welcoming environment.
Sales & Reporting: Track daily sales vs. targets, record key metrics in Google Sheets, and flag any variances to management.
Quality Control: Uphold Achilles Coffee’s brew specs—perform drink quality checks and routine equipment maintenance.
Marketing Support: Execute in-store promotions and coordinate with the Marketing Manager on signage, social posts, and local partnerships.

What We’re Looking For

1–2 years of café experience, including some supervisory or “lead” duties.
Strong specialty coffee-making chops: espresso extraction, milk texturing, and pour-over prep.
A natural problem-solver with excellent communication and conflict-resolution skills.
Comfort with basic P&L tasks and digital tools (Square POS, Google Sheets).
Reliable availability from 6:30 am–2:30 pm, including weekends and holidays.
Genuine passion for specialty coffee and creating memorable customer moments.

Compensation & Perks

Hourly Wage: $19-20 / hour DOE
Tip Pool: Share in daily tip-out ($5-8/ hour in tips)
Perks: Free coffee + retail discounts, professional development

Ready to Lead the Morning Rush?

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $24.00 - $29.00 per hour

Expected hours: 30 – 40 per week

Benefits:

401(k)
Employee discount
Paid training
