Job Description

Bayou Brew Coffee Co. is preparing to open and is seeking an experienced coffee shop shift lead, supervisor, manager, or barista trainer to provide hands-on training and opening support for our new team.

This is a short-term opportunity of approximately 3 weeks , averaging 15–20 hours per week, with the possibility of extending into a fourth week if needed.

We are looking for someone who has not only strong barista skills, but also experience leading a café shift, training baristas, maintaining drink quality and helping a team operate efficiently during service.

What You'll Help Us Do

You'll work directly with the owner and opening team to help establish strong café operations from day one, including:

  • Train new baristas on espresso preparation and drink execution
  • Help set up and dial in our espresso machine and grinder
  • Teach proper dosing, tamping, extraction and espresso troubleshooting
  • Train the team on milk steaming, microfoam and beverage consistency
  • Establish efficient bar positioning, drink sequencing and workflow
  • Coach baristas during live service rather than simply taking over the bar
  • Establish opening, closing and cleaning routines
  • Train proper espresso-machine and grinder cleaning and maintenance
  • Reinforce customer service and café standards
  • Help the team manage morning rushes and other higher-volume periods
  • Identify opportunities to improve speed, organization and consistency
  • Help develop team members so they can confidently operate without ongoing trainer support
Espresso Equipment Experience

Bayou Brew uses a Faema Enova 2-group traditional commercial espresso machine .

Candidates should be comfortable operating and training others on traditional commercial espresso equipment , including grinder calibration, dialing in espresso, shot extraction, steam-wand operation and routine cleaning/backflushing.

Experience specifically with Faema is not required . Experience with Faema, La Marzocco, Nuova Simonelli, La Cimbali, Rancilio or similar commercial machines is welcome.

Who We're Looking For

The strongest candidate will have 3+ years of coffee shop/barista experience and previous experience as a:

Shift Lead • Barista Trainer • Coffee Shop Supervisor • Assistant Manager • Café Manager

You should be comfortable teaching and coaching others , giving constructive feedback, troubleshooting café operations and helping newer baristas build confidence.

This is especially well suited for an experienced coffee professional who may already have a position elsewhere but is interested in a short-term opening/training opportunity.

Schedule: Approximately 15–20 hours/week for 3 weeks
Availability: Primarily mornings and afternoons, Monday–Saturday
Pay: $18–$22/hour based on experience
Location: Powder Springs, GA
