A‑Level Transmission & Engine Diagnostics Specialist

Specialized Talent Acquisition Recruiting Team (START)

Job Description

Job Description

Can You Crack the Tough Cases?

Do intermittent drivability issues excite you more than they frustrate you? Can you methodically pinpoint an electrical fault and communicate a repair plan with confidence? If that’s you—and you prefer an independent shop over dealership politics—let’s connect. Even if you’re happily employed and just testing the waters, we’re open to a conversation.

About Us

We’re a Rochester Hills shop that’s been earning trust since 1992. Our crew is small, experienced, and serious about craftsmanship. Here, mastery is noticed—and there’s a real path to step into roles like Lead Technician, Shop Foreman, or Technical Manager as we grow.

The Challenge
  1. Own advanced diagnostics and electrical troubleshooting with a quality-first mindset.
  2. Diagnose, repair, and replace transmissions with confidence.
  3. Tackle engine diagnostics and major mechanical repairs.
  4. Take on complex repairs that others avoid.
  5. Pitch in on general A-Level work to keep the shop running smoothly.

You’ll have the autonomy to do it right—diagnose thoroughly, recommend accurately, and stand by the repair.

What’s In It for You
  • Comp: $45–$55/hour with weekly pay
  • Hours: Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (zero weekends)
  • Time Off: 80 hours PTO plus 72 hours paid sick time
  • Holidays: 6 paid holidays
  • Health Coverage: Employer pays 50% of health insurance
  • Development: ASE tests and certifications fully covered by the shop
  • Welcome Bonus: Up to $5,000 signing/retention bonus
What You’ll Need to Succeed
  • 5+ years of professional automotive repair experience
  • Exceptional diagnostic and electrical aptitude
  • A-Level/Master-level mechanical skills
  • Transmission experience strongly preferred
  • Valid driver’s license and your own professional tools
  • ASE certifications preferred—proven performance matters most

Bring your expertise to a place that respects it. We’ll handle the politics-free environment—you handle the fix.
