Doughnuts made right. At Sidecar, we don’t just make doughnuts — we’re revolutionizing the way people experience them. Everything is made from scratch, in small batches, with the best ingredients we can find. Holding that standard takes a spotless kitchen — and that starts in the dish pit.

If you take pride in a job done right, work clean and fast, and want to be the reason the whole team runs smoothly, read on.

Why Sidecar

Our mission is simple and ambitious: revolutionize the way people experience doughnuts. We pursue that every day through three commitments — bringing people together, creating meaningful experiences, and crafting everything with excellence. For a dishwasher, that last one is personal: excellence lives in every clean pan, every sanitized station, and every rack you turn around so the line never slows.

We aim to be “The Happiest Part of Your Day,” and that goes for our team, too. Sidecar runs on five values:

  • Warm. Kindness in action — toward guests and the teammates working beside you.
  • Fun. We’re serving doughnuts, not curing cancer. The work is serious; the spirit is joyful.
  • Fresh. Stylish, refined, and original. What we make is distinctly Sidecar — never a copy.
  • Creative. We experiment and refine so we never grow stale, while staying true to our roots.
  • Excellent. High standards, no compromises — in product quality, consistency, and cleanliness.
What You’ll Do

Our dishwashers keep the whole kitchen running and grow their skills over time. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Dish & ware washing. Wash, sanitize, and organize dishes, doughnut trays, pans, utensils, and small wares by hand and machine, batch after batch.
  • Kitchen sanitation. Keep sinks, the dish machine, floors, and work areas clean, sanitized, and food‑safe throughout the shift.
  • Stocking & flow. Return clean wares to stations fast so bakers and baristas never wait — keep the line moving during the rush.
  • Trash & recycling. Empty, break down, and haul trash and recycling, and keep the back‑of‑house clutter‑free.
  • Deep cleaning. Support opening and closing routines and periodic deep‑cleaning of hoods, shelves, equipment, and storage areas.
  • Cleanliness & safety. Follow all health, sanitation, and safety standards, and handle cleaning chemicals correctly.
  • Teamwork. Communicate clearly, jump in where you’re needed, and help the next shift start strong.
What You Bring
  • Work ethic. A dependable, hard‑working attitude — no task is beneath a great teammate.
  • Care & detail. Genuine pride in a clean, organized space and an eye for the spots others miss.
  • Pace. Ability to stay steady and quick when it’s busy and the dishes are stacking up.
  • Reliability. Dependable, on time, and ready for early or flexible shifts.
  • Physical readiness. Comfortable standing for full shifts and lifting or moving racks, bins, and equipment, often wet.
  • Standards. Knowledge of food safety and sanitation (or willingness to get certified). No experience required — we’ll train you.
Compensation & Growth

At Sidecar, your pay grows as your skills do. The more you learn, the more you earn. Starting pay varies by location and follows the local market.

  • Start strong. New team members begin at minimum wage (by location) with full, hands‑on training.
  • Earn tips. Once you’re trained on two skills, you become eligible to share in tips.
  • Earn raises. Learn additional skills and stations, and your hourly base pay increases.
  • Grow into more. The dish pit is a launchpad — cross‑train into prep and baking, or front‑of‑house roles like server and barista, and grow toward leadership.
Benefits
  • Health insurance. Available to full‑time employees.
  • Paid vacation. Available to full‑time employees.
  • 401(k) with match. We match up to 4% of your contributions.
Perks
  • On us. A free doughnut and coffee beverage every shift you work.
  • Employee discount. On product and merch.
Why You’ll Want to Stay

A spotless kitchen is where great doughnuts begin — and your work is what keeps the whole operation moving. The team notices, the standards are real, and there’s a genuine path forward. If you take pride in doing a job right, you’ll be at home here.

Sidecar Doughnuts & Coffee participates in E-Verify. We will provide the Social Security Administration and, if necessary, the Department of Homeland Security with information from each new employee's Form I-9 to confirm work authorization. Sidecar Doughnuts & Coffee does not use E-Verify to pre-screen job applicants and complies with all E-Verify program rules.
