We are opening our Huntsville location and looking for talented team members to start with us in early February!

Barracuda Taco Stand is currently seeking applicants interested leadership roles! Are you a natural leader with a positive attitude, willing to learn both kitchen and front-facing roles, take direction, and enjoy teaching others?

WHO WE ARE // Barracuda is a neighborhood taco stand & margarita garden, offering outdoor dining and takeout, serving high quality tacos on fresh tortillas. We believe that great food and drinks should be prepared simply - at an accessible price point - and foster fun and memorable experiences for a diverse community of people.

WHAT WE'RE ABOUT //

Quality & Integrity – Fresh ingredients, honest work, and respect in everything we do.

Connection – Hospitality that’s laid-back, thoughtful, and genuine.

Growth – Building strong teams and strong communities as we expand.

Team Strength – Showing up for each other, owning mistakes, and keeping things moving forward.

THE JOB // As a member of the team you provide our customers an exceptional, consistent experience by implementing Barracuda's standards of service, product quality, and cleanliness. Every member of our team works to create an environment where everyone is treated with respect and dignity. Barracuda Huntsville will be open seven days a week: Opening Hours are 9am--9pm; Operating Hours are 6am--11pm.

Key Components:

Training: The position is designed to offer training and development opportunities. We're committed to preparing you for leadership by honing your skills in day-to-day management of customer experience, team management, and collaboration & execution of high-level strategic initiatives.

Learning All Stations: While you'll be trained on what the Shift Lead position looks like in your first 2-4 weeks, you'll be exposed to all aspects of our operations, from the kitchen to front-facing roles, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of our business. This learning process typically takes approximately 90-180 days, and depends entirely on the candidate's performance.

Open Availability and Timeliness: Dedication and flexibility are crucial in this role. Your commitment to open availability will contribute to the success of our team and your personal development.

Assessment and Progression: Your performance will be consistently assessed as you learn our operations. This ongoing evaluation ensures that you are well-prepared and ready for advancement to the next level before formally placing you on our leadership team.
