About Gitano NYC:
Gitano NYC is a tropical escape in the heart of Manhattan, blending modern Mexican and Mayan-inspired cuisine with high-energy nightlife, design-forward spaces, and world-class hospitality. Set in a lush, waterfront oasis at Pier 17, Gitano delivers an immersive guest experience where food, music, and culture intersect.

This role is essential to delivering consistent, high-quality dishes that reflect Gitano’s elevated take on coastal Mexican cuisine.

- Sanitation & Compliance: Ensure proper food handling, storage, and station breakdown in strict compliance with NYC Department of Health (DOHMH) regulations. Maintain a clean, organized, and professional workspace at all times.
- Kitchen Discipline & Flow: Practice excellent inventory rotation protocols (FIFO) and actively minimize food waste at the station level. Collaborate seamlessly with the kitchen team and stewarding staff to maintain a smooth service flow.
- Teamwork: Maintain a professional, positive, and collaborative attitude with fellow cooks, stewarding staff, and front-of-house teams.
Qualifications & Experience:
- Experience: 2+ years of line cook experience in a high-volume, upscale restaurant or premium hospitality environment.
- Technical Skills: Strong understanding of kitchen operations, excellent knife skills, and advanced cooking techniques. Familiarity with modern Mexican/Latin culinary profiles and experience with wood-fired cooking or open-flame grills is highly preferred.
- Adaptability: Ability to maintain intense focus, attention to detail, and speed while working under pressure during peak nightlife and event hours.
- Certifications: NYC Food Protection Certificate is highly preferred (or a willingness to obtain it within the first 30 days).
- Schedule: Flexible availability required, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
- Physical Requirements: Must be able to stand for long periods of time, move quickly in a hot kitchen environment, and lift up to 40 lbs.
What We Offer:
- Financial Value: Competitive hourly pay + potential overtime.
- Daily Perks: Complimentary staff meals and employee dining discounts across the portfolio.
- Environment: A creative, energetic, beautiful, and team-oriented work environment.
- Global Mobility: Opportunities for permanent placement and professional growth within our expanding global hospitality group (NYC, Tulum, Dubai).
