About Shy Cow

Shy Cow is Bali’s leading artisanal cheesery, supplying handcrafted cheeses to many of Indonesia’s top restaurants and resorts. We work in a clean, structured production environment where discipline, hygiene, and consistency matter.

This is not a restaurant kitchen.
This is a professional food-production role with real craft and a clear growth path.

We are looking for someone experienced in food production — bakery, pastry, chocolate, gelato, or kitchen — who enjoys hands‑on work, clean routines, and precise processes.

You will train daily with our Senior Cheesemaker, and learn the full methodology and standards developed by our French Head Cheesemaker, who oversees production quality.

This role suits someone who takes pride in discipline, hygiene, and consistent results.

What You Will Do

Hands‑on production

Support daily cheesemaking: milk prep, curd handling, molding, pressing, salting, aging

Follow recipes and processes accurately

Measure and record temperature, pH, yield, and production data

Clean and sanitise tools, equipment, molds, and work areas

Quality & hygiene

Maintain strict hygiene and CPPOB food‑safety standards

Keep equipment clean and ready for production

Assist with batch records and traceability

Daily training with our Senior Cheesemaker

Learn milk chemistry, acidity, cultures, and aging

Gradually progress to managing more complex tasks

Build toward running parts of a cheese make independently

Work under the standards set by our French Head Cheesemaker

Teamwork

Work as part of a disciplined, supportive team

Communicate clearly about timing, tasks, and ingredient needs

Help colleagues with cleaning, setup, and prep work

What We Offer

Monday–Friday schedule (8 hours/day — stable hours, no late nights)

Skill‑based pay increases — grow your salary as your skills grow

Daily hands‑on training from the Senior Cheesemaker

Production standards overseen by our French Head Cheesemaker

Respected and stable company supplying leading restaurants and resorts

Long‑term career development, not a temporary kitchen job

Salary is based on experience, with guaranteed increases as skill levels develop.

Who We Are Looking For

2–3 years in culinary, bakery, pastry, chocolate, gelato, or production kitchen

Disciplined, reliable, and serious about learning

Strong hygiene habits

Comfortable with physical work

Able to follow procedures and record data

Committed to long‑term growth

English is a bonus
