BystroBarista is a marketplace for staffing in the coffee industry across Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Baristas find shifts and permanent positions near home; coffee shops find motivated candidates without recruiters or commissions.

FOR BARISTAS • Job feed filtered by metro station and distance • Permanent positions and one-off shifts — switch the filter to match your need • Detailed profile: experience, skills, equipment (espresso machine, V60, AeroPress, Chemex), portfolio, and your desired hourly rate • Direct chat with the coffee shop after you apply • Shift history and reliability rating — your reputation travels with you • Shift confirmation and dispute resolution via our moderation team • Completely free: no subscriptions, no per-application fees

FOR COFFEE SHOPS AND CHAINS • Create a vacancy in a couple of minutes — permanent or temporary • See candidate profiles with experience, skills, and preferred metro station • Accept, reject, or invite candidates; chat directly inside the app • Manage multiple locations from a single account • Candidate reliability rating from past shifts — fewer "didn't show up" moments • Vacancy posting is free

MODERATION AND SAFETY • A "Report" button on every profile and vacancy — reports are reviewed by moderators within 24 hours • Block any user in chat • Delete your account directly in the app: Settings → Delete account • Data is transmitted over a secure channel (TLS); personal data is processed in accordance with applicable Russian data-protection law • Sign in with Apple, Google, or Yandex ID

ACCOUNTABILITY ON BOTH SIDES • If someone doesn't show up for a shift, the venue logs it and a moderator follows up • Repeated violations temporarily limit the ability to apply or hire • Transparent reviews on both sides: baristas rate venues, venues rate baristas
