Bubble Tea Barista & Shift Lead

Craft the Perfect Sip. Lead the Vibe.

Are you a fan of the perfect pearl? We are looking for an energetic and detail-oriented Bubble Tea Barista to join our high-energy retail team. This role is perfect for someone who loves the art of drink making—from muddling fresh fruits to mastering the science of tea-to-milk ratios. If you have a passion for hospitality and a knack for leadership, we want you to help us deliver the ultimate “boba” experience.


The Role: Beverage Artistry & Operations

As a Barista, you are the architect of our menu. You’ll be responsible for crafting high-quality beverages that look as good as they taste while ensuring the shop runs like a well-oiled machine.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Drink Precision: Prepare a wide variety of bubble teas, including fruit teas, milk teas, and specialty toppings, strictly following established recipes and quality standards.

  • Station Ownership: Maintain a pristine barista station. This includes prepping fresh ingredients (like cutting fruits) and deep-cleaning equipment throughout the shift.

  • Customer Connection: Act as a brand ambassador by greeting customers, taking orders accurately, and offering expert recommendations.

  • Inventory & Safety: Assist in managing stock levels and ensuring all ingredients are stored properly. Adhere to all health and safety regulations to maintain a safe environment.

  • Leadership Support: Handle cash transactions efficiently and assist in training new team members on drink preparation and operational flow.


What You’ll Need

We are looking for a proactive individual who can balance the technical side of drink-making with the social side of retail.

Qualifications:

  • Experience: Prior experience in retail, food service, or hospitality management is required.

  • Leadership: Strong decision-making skills and the ability to guide a team during busy rushes.

  • Communication: Excellent interpersonal skills with a “customer-first” mentality.

  • Flexibility: Availability to work a variable schedule, including weekends and holidays.


Physical & Essential Requirements

To be successful in this fast-paced, high-energy environment, you must be able to meet the following physical demands:

  • Stamina: Stand and walk for extended periods (up to 8 hours per shift).

  • Strength: Lift and carry items weighing up to 30 pounds (e.g., bags of sugar, tea containers).

  • Dexterity: Perform repetitive hand and wrist movements (shaking, pouring, and sealing drinks).

  • Environment: Thrive in a loud, high-energy workspace with fluctuating temperatures.


Why Join Our Team?

  • Fast-Paced Growth: Gain experience in a rapidly expanding sector of the beverage industry.

  • Skill Building: Move beyond simple service by learning inventory management and team training.

  • Vibrant Culture: Work in a high-energy environment where creativity and new ideas are encouraged.
