Raya is looking for an energetic, detail-oriented Barista to join our front-of-house team. This is a hands-on, all-around role — you'll be behind the espresso machine, on the floor serving guests, and keeping the space spotless, often all in the same shift. If you thrive under pressure, love great coffee and specialty drinks, and take pride in a clean, welcoming space, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Do
Prepare and serve espresso-based drinks, coffee, and other beverages to a high standard, consistently and quickly
Greet and serve guests at tables and the counter, taking orders and ensuring a great customer experience
Work as part of the front-of-house team — assist with seating, bussing, and general service as needed
Maintain a clean, organized, and sanitary workstation, dining area, and equipment at all times
Restock supplies and manage inventory during service
Handle cash/POS transactions accurately
Keep up with a quick pace during rushes while maintaining quality and friendliness
Follow all food safety and cleanliness standards

What We're Looking For




Prior barista or café experience preferred (not always required — outstanding attitude matters most)
Comfortable working as a server/FOH in addition to making drinks
Strong multitasker who stays calm and organized during busy rushes
A genuine passion for cleanliness and maintaining a great-looking space
Friendly, guest-first attitude with strong communication skills
Reliable, punctual, and a team player
Able to stand for extended periods and move quickly during service

Why Join Raya
Supportive, fast-moving team environment
Opportunity to grow your skills across coffee, service, and hospitality
