If you have strong diagnostic abilities, take pride in accurate repairs, and want to work in a shop that values your experience and provides the tools and environment to do your best work, we want to hear from you.

And guess what, our shop has A/C. Because sweating should not be part of the diagnostic process.

• Communicate findings and recommendations clearly to service advisors
• Assist other technicians with diagnostic and repair challenges when appropriate
• Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work bay and shop environment — an A/C shop environment, we might add

Requirements

• 5–10 years of professional automotive repair experience preferred
• Strong experience diagnosing and repairing modern gasoline vehicles
• Diesel diagnostic and repair experience
• Proficiency with advanced diagnostic scan tools and OBD-II systems
• Strong electrical and drivability diagnostic skills
