Barista

Nomad Diner is a modern, fast‑paced, design‑forward neighborhood diner — and we’re looking for baristas who bring warmth, precision, and genuine hospitality to every cup. If you love great coffee, thrive in a busy environment, and want to be part of a team that’s redefining what a diner can be, we’d love to meet you. Open availability is strongly preferred, and we’re happy to train the right team members who bring the right attitude and energy.

As a Nomad Diner Barista, you’ll deliver technically excellent café service while keeping the space organized, stocked, and running smoothly.
