Now Hiring: Production Assistant

Location: South Austin (1606 W. Stassney Lane)
Hours: 30-40 per week
Reports To: Production Manager

About Us:
Rising Tide Roast Collaborative is a shared coffee roasting space. Our goal is to help aspiring and existing coffee businesses find joy and success in coffee roasting. We believe in knowledge sharing, inclusivity, and making the coffee industry a sustainable option for ourselves, our central Texas community, and producers at origin.

The Position:
As a Rising Tide production assistant, you will work directly with management to support roastery operations. You will be responsible for executing many of the systems and processes which enable the roastery to efficiently accomplish its production goals. It’s not terribly glamorous - you will often go home sweaty, dirty, and tired. On the upside, you’ll definitely get your steps, you’ll get to know a lot of awesome coffee people, and you just might figure out if behind-the-scenes coffee work is your happy place.

Responsibilities:

• Labeling, bagging, and shipping coffee
• Ensure production processes are completed efficiently, correctly, and with attention to detail
• Work closely with the Production Manager and other team members to meet daily production goals
• Assist production manager with other tasks as they arise
• Help track roastery inventory and supplies
• Help maintain a clean, organized work environment
• Perform other duties as needed to support the roastery team

Qualifications:

• Ready and willing to dive into coffee knowledge (previous experience in coffee is a plus but not required; we are willing to train the right candidate)
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to follow precise instructions
• Communicative: if something goes wrong, let’s talk about it!
• Efficient; able to get work done quickly and correctly
• Positive attitude, kind spirit, and a willingness to learn and grow
• Availability M-F, 8am-4pm

Pay and Benefits:

• $16/hr to start, with a review at 3 months
• Free bag of coffee every week and all the coffee you can drink while you’re on shift
• Opportunities for growth and learning within the specialty coffee industry
• PTO (accrual begins after 90 days)
