Chef de Cuisine

Mujō is a one Michelin star modern, Edomae-style Sushiya. We are inspired by the Japanese concept of ichi-go ichi-e, 一期一会, or “one time, one meeting.” Every service is a singular moment, never to be repeated, and we approach it with precision and focus.

Our team is expected to deliver an exceptional omakase experience through attention to detail and refined, professional service. As the Chef de Cuisine, you will be responsible for the overall management of the kitchen, including menu creation, food quality, staff leadership, and operational efficiency.

We value individuals who approach service as a disciplined craft — thoughtful, composed, and exacting. Guest connections are genuine, grounded in respect, warmth, and a deep appreciation for the guest’s experience.
