Now Hiring! The Dome at Hi-Lawn (Part-Time + Full-Time)
The holiday season on the roof is about to get busy, and we're building our Snowglow crew. We're hiring for both front and back of house, part-time and full-time.

About Us

Hi-Lawn is one of DC's biggest rooftops, situated atop the historic Union Market building. In the summer, it offers a lawn, city views, lawn games, live music, and a retro, come-as-you-are vibe. For the holiday season, we're home to The Dome, a 50-foot heated dome with 360° projected art overhead. Each winter it becomes Snowglow, and this year we're turning the whole roof into the Snowglow Alpine Hotel: think a 1970s European mountain lodge, classic hotel-bar cocktails, and plenty of cozy après-ski energy. We're part of Blagden Hospitality, the group behind Tiger Fork, Calico, The Royal, and Lulu's Winegarden.

About the Team
We're a tight, hardworking crew that enjoys working together. Our chefs and bar team build menus from scratch every season, our creative team transforms the space a few times a year, and our floor staff are the reason guests keep coming back. We look out for each other, keep it real, and no one is above helping out. You'll be part of a team that throws some of the most memorable parties in DC—from night markets to a snow globe on a roof to NYE parties—alongside people who care about doing things right.

As a Line Cook, you will be part of the culinary team, supporting a seamless kitchen workflow, following health and safety standards, and prep and cook our seasonal menus, from rooftop favorites to Snowglow's alpine small plates. You’ll work closely with our Executive Chef/GM to uphold our standards in food quality, presentation, and execution in a fast-paced, upscale setting.

  • Prepare station for service (setup, food prep)
  • Overseeing that line cooks prep, clean, and stock stations pre- and post-service
  • Proper maintenance of wok
  • Minimize waste of product
  • Rotates product according to “First In, First Out”
