Assistant Baker

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Thursdays — Prep: Weigh and mise ingredients, mix and portion each of our doughs to exact gram weights, and prep fillings and toppings. Hand-form our stuffed cookies — pressing fillings into the dough and shaping tight, even cookies.
Fridays — Bake & Decorate: Run multiple ovens at once, staggering and rotating trays so nothing comes out over- or under-baked, then decorate each cookie the moment it leaves the oven. Finish & Package: Box the cookies to presentation standard, so every box looks perfect.

WHAT IT TAKES

Decorating is the heart of this job, and most of it happens in the short window while the cookie is still hot. You need real baking and decorating experience, an artistic eye, steady hands, patience, and the speed to work precisely under time pressure. You should be comfortable following highly detailed recipes, standing all day, and safely handling hot trays, ovens, and a torch. You will be operating within a startup environment as the business is actively scaling.
