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.

- Prepare and serve espresso-based drinks, coffee, and other beverages to a high standard, consistently and quickly

- 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 fast 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 — great 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
