• Working knowledge of espresso machines, grinders, and related equipment
• Strong troubleshooting skills and mechanical aptitude
• Professional customer service abilities and communication skills

Bonus points for:

• Background in hospitality, food service, or specialty coffee
• Experience with water filtration systems
• Familiarity with multiple equipment brands
