Barista / Wellness Beverage Specialist

• Prepare specialty coffee using organic, sustainably sourced Mexican beans

• Prepare morning smoothies and juice blends alongside coffee service
• Maintain organic café environment

Requirements

• 2–3 years barista experience with wellness beverage knowledge
• Genuine interest in functional food and adaptogenic ingredients

• IMSS, Aguinaldo, vacation + premium
• On-site accommodation
• Organic staff meals and beverages
• Tips

Work environment

Eco-café in Tulum's jungle or beach zone. Tulum's café environments are some of the most visually extraordinary in the world — open-air, bamboo structures, jungle canopy, or ocean view.

About the role

Coffee as ritual. In Tulum, the morning café experience is intentional — guests sit with their organic latte or their ceremonial cacao and watch the jungle wake up. The barista who creates that moment — with quality ingredients, care, and genuine knowledge — is delivering something closer to a wellness ritual than a standard café transaction.
