Automotive Diagnostic Technician/ Master Technician

We are looking for an experienced technician who specializes in diagnostic work who's tired  of limited earning potential.

We’re seeking a motivated, experienced Automotive Technician to join our team. If you have a focus on quality and fixing something right the first time, our shop might be a good fit. We have significant overtime opportunities and weekly performance bonuses. While we are open to all talented techs, our ideal candidate has a 15+ years of automotive repair experience and 10+years of automotive diagnostic experience.

 

We have a great team at Jess Lewis Transmission, and if you are willing to put in the work, your effort will be rewarded.

​

Important to note: We pay hourly with time and a half for overtime with a performance bonus structure (see below). We believe flat rate results in lower quality work and lower earning potential overall.

​

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Advanced Diagnostics: Your focus will be on identifying and troubleshooting complex issues utilizing shop-provided tools and diagnostic software (if you happen to come with your own preferred diagnostic software or tools, that just gives you more options to work with). You will also be responsible for communicating/documenting recommended repair procedures.

  • Complex Repair Work: Take ownership of complex automotive repairs from diagnosis through completion, using advanced diagnostic equipment, wiring diagrams, service information, and electrical testing procedures to accurately identify and repair difficult vehicle concerns.

  • Quality Control: Inspect every vehicle to ensure it meets our rigorous safety and quality standards before it hits the road.

  • Shop Excellence: Maintain a clean, organized bay and collaborate with the team to keep the shop running like a well-oiled machine.

  • Continuous Growth: Stay ahead of the curve by keeping up with the latest automotive tech and procedures.

​

BENEFITS:

  • Competitive Base Pay: Our pay range is based on your experience and abilities. The right candidate will see consistent growth in wages. We will provide a written offer for you to review prior to employment, so you can decide if the job is right for you. Instead of flat rate, we pay an hourly rate with time and a half for overtime, along with a performance bonus structure (see below), as we believe this results in better wages for our techs.

  • Significant Overtime Opportunities: We have significant OT opportunities available, paid at 1.5x.

  • Weekly Performance Bonuses: After 90 days, you’re eligible for up to $100/week in a weekly performance bonus; That’s up-to an extra $5,200 per year just for doing great work.

  • We recently launched an IRA program for our tenured employees. Eligible employees will have up to 3% match (more details provided upon enrollment/eligibility).

  • Continuing Education - With demonstrated performance and commitment to the role, we will offer company-sponsored continuing education opportunities.

​

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE:

  • Proven Experience: A solid background as an automotive diagnostic technician or master technician.

  • Technical Mastery: High proficiency with diagnostic-specific tools/software and a deep understanding of vehicle systems (including powertrain and ADAS).

  • Continuous Learning: A commitment to staying current with the latest developments in automotive technology, software, and maintenance procedures.

  • Problem-Solving Skills: The ability to diagnose complex, "hard-to-find" issues independently.

  • Team Player Mentality: You work well solo but know how to collaborate to get the job done efficiently.

​

GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES:

The right candidate will have the opportunity to work towards a leadership/educator role that involves training our next generation of technicians. The additional responsibility comes with additional pay.
