Automotive Service Technician

There are automotive shops where a technician spends most of the day moving through the same narrow range of jobs. This isn’t one of them.

Burlington, ON | On-Site

Our client is an established Burlington automotive service business handling everything from routine maintenance and diagnostics through brakes, suspension, steering, transmission work, electrical concerns, HVAC and more. That variety makes this a good environment for an experienced technician who actually enjoys diagnosing vehicles and figuring out what is going on rather than simply replacing whatever part appears on a work order.

Quality matters here. So does doing the diagnosis properly, communicating clearly with the people around you and sending vehicles back to customers knowing the work has been done well.

, healthcare, dental and vision coverage, and you have a strong opportunity for an experienced 310S technician who wants good automotive work without giving up the rest of the week to do it.

You’ll be joining an established shop where the work is varied enough to keep your diagnostic and mechanical skills sharp. One vehicle may need straightforward preventative maintenance; the next could require you to work through a drivability problem, electrical fault, brake issue or suspension concern.

For someone with at least five years behind them who is comfortable taking a vehicle from initial complaint through diagnosis, repair and final verification, there should be plenty here to keep the work interesting.

You’ll be responsible for diagnosing, servicing and repairing cars and light-duty vehicles across a broad range of systems.

• Troubleshooting mechanical, electrical and electronic vehicle concerns.
• Using scan tools and diagnostic equipment to identify faults accurately.
• Performing scheduled and preventative maintenance.
• Diagnosing engine performance and drivability problems.
• Servicing and repairing brakes and ABS systems.
• Repairing steering and suspension components.
• Completing transmission and drivetrain service and repairs.
• Diagnosing charging, starting, ignition and electrical system concerns.
• Working on cooling, heating and automotive HVAC systems.
• Inspecting vehicles and identifying worn, unsafe or failing components.
• Reviewing technical information and manufacturer repair procedures before completing repairs.
• Verifying that repairs have corrected the original concern.
• Recording findings and completed work clearly and accurately.
• Working with service staff and fellow technicians to keep jobs moving through the shop.
• Looking after your work area, tools and equipment and maintaining a safe shop environment.

We’re looking for someone who has already spent enough time in the trade to be comfortable tackling problems without needing every step mapped out for them.
