About Fieldwork Brewing Company

Founded in Berkeley, California in 2015, Fieldwork Brewing Company is an independent craft brewery known for exceptional, honest beer making and an ever-changing lineup of fresh releases. Over the past decade, Fieldwork has grown across Northern California, building community-driven taprooms that pair award-winning beer with thoughtful hospitality.

Our Mission Rock Taproom is Fieldwork’s newest San Francisco location, situated in the heart of Mission Rock; one of the city’s most exciting new waterfront neighborhoods. The taproom will feature a full kitchen alongside an ever-rotating taplist of fresh beer. We’re building our team from the ground up and looking for motivated, team-oriented individuals to help deliver a high-quality guest experience from day one.

Join The Grand Opening Team!

This is a rare opportunity to be part of something new. As a founding team member of the Mission Rock Taproom, you will help shape the culture, standards, and guest experience of Fieldwork’s newest San Francisco location. Team members who join ahead of opening will participate in the Fieldwork Mission Rock Grand Opening and carry the tenure and institutional knowledge that comes with building something from scratch.

We are also committed to growing our team from within. As the taproom establishes itself, we will identify Fieldwork Associates who demonstrate leadership and reliability for Shift Manager roles.

We are seeking enthusiastic, hospitality-driven Fieldwork Associates to join our newest San Francisco team. This is a hands-on role in a high-volume, fast-paced environment, ideal for individuals who enjoy engaging guests, working collaboratively, and supporting both front-of-house service and kitchen operations.
