Espresso Enforcers (AKA Baristas, but Our Title Is Better)

At Knox Coffee Company, we’re not just making coffee—we’re crafting the coffee. And we need a few bold, coffee-obsessed individuals who know the difference between a latte and a flat white and can serve them with serious attitude. If you're the type of person who thrives when the line is out the door and the espresso machine is working overtime, we want you.

We’re looking for Espresso Enforcers who can handle the heat—literally. If you’re a multi-tasking pro, can keep a smile on your face while the rush hits, and actually remember customers’ names, you’re already ahead of the game. Experience is great, but what we really care about is a strong work ethic, a sharp sense of humor, and a willingness to learn (even if that means admitting you didn’t know what a macchiato was last week—no judgment, just results).

Pay & Benefits:

  • $15.00 per hour.
  • You keep 100% of your tips. That’s right—100%. We don’t play the tip-splitting game here. You earned them, you keep them.
  • Simple pay structure: $15.00 per hour worked, and we pay for your 1-hour lunch break. So in theory, you’re working 7 hours, but getting paid for 8.

Upfront Rules (Don’t Apply if You Can’t Comply):

  1. You arrive on time and in a clean uniform.
  2. Personal hygiene? No need for explanation.
  3. If you're sick, you stay home. No notes required, just common sense.
  4. Phones go away when customers are in the building.
  5. Gossip is for high school. If you have an issue with a co-worker or customer, take it to management and keep it there.

Negatives About Working Here:

  1. No medical, vision, or dental benefits. We hope to offer those by late 2026.
