Cook

Line Cook & Dough Specialist | Jerry’s Roast Pork (FIDI SF)

Location: 2 Embarcadero Center, San Francisco

The Mission: Help us revitalize Downtown SF with artisan roast pork hoagies and unique pizza/focaccia/al-taglio style doughs.

Jerry’s Roast Pork is growing, and we need a versatile, craft-focused Cook to join our crew. This isn't a "back-of-house only" role. We are looking for a teammate who is equally comfortable mastering a high-hydration dough as they are interacting with our FIDI lunch crowd. If you want to help build a new small business from the ground up and leave your mark on the city, we want to meet you.

The Role

You’ll be a vital part of the daily engine at Jerry’s, handling everything from the day's prep to the lunch rush.

• The Dough Program: You’ll lead the production of our focaccia/pizza dough. If you love working with high-hydration, focaccia-style crusts—focusing on fermentation, structure, and that perfect crunch—this is your station.
• The Line: Execute food production during our peak service hours. You’ll be responsible for assembling our signature roast pork sandwiches with speed and precision.
• Guest Interaction: We’re a neighborhood spot in a big city. You’ll be front-and-center, greeting guests, taking orders, and ensuring every customer feels the Jerry's energy.
• Operations & Inventory: You’ll play a key role in the business by taking inventory, helping with orders, and participating in the daily setup and closing of the shop.

Who You Are

• Dough Driven: You have experience with bread or pizza dough (specifically focaccia or Sicilian/Roman styles -- grandma pie) and understand the patience and technique required for a quality bake.
• FIDI-Fast: You enjoy the "controlled chaos" of a downtown lunch rush and stay calm under pressure.
• A People Person: You’re happy to jump from the prep table to the register to help a guest.
• Growth-Minded: You want to do more than just follow a recipe—you want to help a new small business grow and thrive.

Why Join Jerry’s?

• Build Something New: You’re getting in on the ground floor. Your input and hard work will directly shape the future of Jerry’s.
• Revitalize SF: We are proud to be part of the downtown San Francisco comeback. Your work helps bring life and flavor back to the FIDI.
• No Late Nights: Benefit from the FIDI schedule—work hard during the day and have your evenings back.
