We take care of the people who take care of our guests.

At Q39, you’ll grow your career, be rewarded for your results, and thrive in a culture built on engagement, feedback, and genuine investment in your future.

Training & Development

Growth at Q39 starts on day one. Our structured onboarding, hands-on culinary coaching, and hospitality skills training give every team member the foundation to excel — from reading a guest to mastering a station. We invest continuously in developing the skills that make great careers.

Real Growth Opportunities

We are growth minded — committed to getting better every day through feedback, coaching, and refining our craft. Q39 is expanding across Kansas City and the Midwest. We promote from within and build clear pathways for the team members who bring continuous improvement to every shift.

Championship Standards

We bring championship-level excellence to every shift — from our award-winning competition BBQ recipes to the way we serve each guest. Working at Q39 means holding the same standards that earned our reputation as Kansas City's premier BBQ destination.

A Team That Has Your Back

We show up prepared, on time, and ready to support one another. In our full-service, made-from-scratch kitchen, we succeed together — jumping in to help teammates who are slammed and celebrating collective wins over individual accomplishment.

Schedules That Respect Your Life

Sustainable hospitality is our standard. We believe the best people stay when their time is respected. We build schedules that work for real life, because a team that can recharge shows up better for our guests every single day.

A Brand You Can Be Proud Of

We are grounded in a deep understanding of our history and what built our reputation. Every team member shares in that ownership — bringing care to every detail so the Q39 brand is experienced, not just talked about.
