Automotive Technician, Automotive Mechanic
Benefits:
- Competitive salary
- Opportunity for advancement
- Paid time off
- Training & development
Let’s set expectations:
This job includes cleaning bathrooms, organizing the shop, and yes—sometimes mopping up oil spills. It’s not all test drives and high-fives.
If you’ve got basic car knowledge, aren’t afraid to roll up your sleeves, and want to actually learn the business from the ground up—keep reading.
WHAT THE JOB ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE The Foundation Stuff:- Keep the shop clean and organized (techs can’t be productive in chaos)
- Clean lobby and bathrooms (someone’s gotta do it)
- Handle scrap metal and trash (exciting, we know)
- Organize parts for technicians
- Quality control test drives after repairs (you’ll learn what “right” sounds like)
- Help techs when they need an extra hand (this is where you learn)
- Put parts in the right place at the right time (flow matters)
- Make 48-hour follow-up calls to customers
- Ask for Google reviews (our reputation depends on this)
- Answer phones and help check in vehicles
Think of yourself as the person who keeps everything running smoothly while learning what it takes to move up.
WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE- You have basic automotive knowledge (you know a brake rotor from a serpentine belt)
- You understand that clean shops = productive shops = everyone makes more money
- You’re a self-starter who doesn’t need constant direction
- You’re good with customers when the situation calls for it
- You want to LEARN and ADVANCE
- Physical work doesn’t scare you (lifting, bending, standing all day)
- You can start this week
This job is perfect for:
Current lube techs, high school automotive students, quick lube workers, or car enthusiasts ready to level up in a real independent shop.
People expecting a purely customer-facing role, folks with zero automotive experience, or anyone “too good” for grunt work.
WHAT WE OFFER- Competitive pay
- M-F, 7:45 AM - 5:00 PM (Your weekends are yours)
- PTO and paid holidays
- Opportunity to advance based on what you put in
- Learn from experienced techs in a shop that actually stays busy
We need someone who gets it: every job matters. The follow-up call that turns a one-time customer into a regular? That’s you. The clean shop that keeps techs moving? That’s you. The QC that catches an issue before the customer does? Also you.
Do the work. Learn the business. Prove yourself. Move up.
