Highwire Coffee Roasters Careers and Jobs
Robert Myers and Rich Avella first met in the mid-1990s and share an approach to coffee we call "approachable excellence".
Our shops are welcoming spaces where we connect around our enthusiasm for coffee, our communities, and our love of music. Our coffees are always the freshest green coffees available in any season and we roast them along a roast spectrum that captures the range of coffee lovers' tastes from lighter, bright Single Origins, to the deeper chocolatey body-forward coffees typical of a darker roasted coffee.
