Work the line as a regular part of every shift
Handle daily prep and production
Lead and organize the kitchen during service
Train staff and maintain strong standards
Maintain consistency, quality and portion control
Help manage inventory, ordering and food waste
Keep the kitchen clean, organized and service-ready
Help troubleshoot problems and keep service running smoothly
Contribute ideas for specials, recent dishes and occasional menu development

Previous experience as a Kitchen Lead, Kitchen Manager, Sous Chef,



Senior Cook or similar position is preferred.

Pizza and/or Italian restaurant experience is a strong asset , but we're open to someone from another busy kitchen who has the right experience, work ethic and leadership ability.

We are looking for someone who is fast, organized, dependable and genuinely comfortable working the line . This isn't a desk-management position — we're a small operation and everyone works.

Full time | Approximately 40 hours/week
Pay: $20–$25/hour, based on experience and capabilities
