Specialty Barista Cyber City Cafe San Antonio, TX Job Details Full-time $13 - $15 an hour 1 day ago Benefits Employee discount Qualifications Latte art Serving Guest relations Cleaning Stocking Food Handler Certification Full Job Description The Concept Welcome to Cyber City Cafe. We are bringing a strict cyberpunk, neon-noir aesthetic to the local coffee scene, pairing a gritty, neon-drenched atmosphere with elite, third-wave specialty coffee. We aren't a corporate drive-thru, and we aren't a generic neighborhood shop. We are building a highly curated, premium experience, and we need the talent to match the altitude of the brand. The Role We are looking for artisans, not just order-takers. You will be operating top-tier espresso equipment, dialing in variables daily, and serving a demographic that expects a flawless cup every single time. If you take pride in the science of extraction, love pouring clean art, and want to work in an environment that actually respects the craft, this is your station.

What We Expect Precision:

You understand how to dial in espresso—managing grind size, dose, and yield to hit exact flavor profiles.

The Craft:

Consistently steaming perfect micro-foam. Advanced free-pour latte art (hearts, tulips, rosettas) is a non-negotiable requirement.

Menu Curation:

You aren't just reading a screen; you are a guide to our menu. You confidently engage with guests, breaking down our custom flavor profiles and naturally elevating their experience by recommending signature modifications, alternative milks, or our custom neon refreshers.

The Flow:

You can maintain absolute composure, an immaculate station, and excellent pacing during heavy volume rushes without letting the quality of the cup slip. The Requirements 1-2 years of active experience in a fast-paced, specialty coffee environment. A strong, self-motivated work ethic. You don't need to be micromanaged to know when to wipe down a steam wand, prep backups, or restock the bar. How to Apply We protect our quality standards by starting with the details. To apply, submit your resume highlighting your specific coffee experience.

Crucial:

To prove your attention to detail, you must state what your favorite drink (to make or consume) is somewhere in your cover letter or on your resume. Applications that fail to include this detail will be automatically filtered out.

Pay:

$13.00 - $15.00 per hour
