Organic unbleached flour, salt, water, and lard from a Florida farm. That's it. No preservatives, no seed oils, no chemistry set. Every tortilla is handmade in small batches. We sell them at farmers markets, in local stores, to restaurants, and online — and people come back for them, hard. We're growing fast and we're building this thing the right way. We're a small team. That means the person we hire isn't a number on a schedule — they're the next piece of this thing. Who We're Looking For One person who's been around a kitchen, knows what clean looks like, and doesn't need somebody standing over their shoulder telling them what to do next. You should be the kind of person who walks past a dirty prep table and wipes it down without being asked. Who notices we're low on bags before we run out. Who can laugh through a hot Friday night press run and still count the packs right. If you need someone to hand you a task list every hour, this isn't your spot. If you like owning a job and doing it right, keep reading. What You'll Actually Do In the kitchen: Mix dough Press and bake on a commercial tortilla oven Pack and label Prep for the next run Wash dishes and break down the station Keep the kitchen inspection-ready, every shift Out the door: Pull and stage wholesale and retail orders Deliver local orders Work farmers markets and events — sell, talk to people, represent the brand We are all the Face of the Brand of First Bake It's a real job.
