The role

As our newest Chef, you'll help set the standard for quality across everything we do. Frame it as Costco trusting your 4 years with $80,000 - $106,000, a general mandate, and the room to grow into leadership.

Key Responsibilities

  • Notice the endlessly-iterating gap between the spec and the shipped thing
  • Keep Costco's Hospitality Sales pipeline humming without constant hand-holding
  • Coach newer mid-level teammates through their first messy general project
  • Find the flexible workaround when the official path is blocked
  • Defend the Barista Skills fundamentals when speed tempts everyone to skip them
  • Read a Night Audit system you didn't build and improve it anyway
  • Build the Problem Solving habits a mid-level role can lean on for years

What You'll Bring

  • Fluency across Problem Solving and Micros POS, with strong opinions on both
  • An OR sensibility, or genuine curiosity about this market
  • Comfort steering general conversations toward a decision
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent

Few people outside OR realize that Costco powers a surprising slice of the general infrastructure running across Hillsboro, OR today. Giving and receiving direct feedback is a skill we practice openly across every level.

Expect $80,000 - $106,000, yes, but also expect the kind of benefits and remote flexibility that make Mondays in Hillsboro feel lighter.

Nothing stale here: the Chef slot was re-confirmed open earlier today.
