Tinley Auto Repair is looking for an Automotive Technician with hands-on shop experience who is ready for their next opportunity.

We are not looking for a master technician.

We are also not looking for someone brand new to the industry.

We're looking for that technician in the middle—the person who can confidently handle maintenance and general repair work on their own, has started tackling more involved repairs, and wants to keep building their skills.

Maybe you're doing brakes, steering and suspension, batteries, maintenance services, tires, inspections, and other general repairs today—but you want to become capable of much more.

That's the person we want to meet.

What You'll Be Doing

Depending on your experience and abilities, your day may include:

• Oil changes and scheduled maintenance
• Brakes
• Steering and suspension repairs
• Batteries and starting/charging system repairs
• Fluid services
• Tire services
• Belts, hoses, filters, bulbs, and other general repairs
• Vehicle inspections
• Digital Vehicle Health Assessments with photos and documentation
• Basic diagnostic work based on your current skill level
• More advanced repairs as your abilities grow

We aren't expecting you to know how to do everything on day one.

We are expecting you to know your way around a repair shop, work independently on the jobs within your skill level, recognize when you need help, and want to learn the things you don't know yet.

You Might Be a Great Fit If...

You've been working in automotive repair and you're thinking:

"I know I can become a really good technician if someone gives me the opportunity, training, and support to get there."

That's exactly what we're looking for.

You should:

• Have previous hands-on automotive repair experience
• Be comfortable performing maintenance and general mechanical repairs
• Be able to complete quality vehicle inspections
• Understand basic shop procedures and repair processes
• Take pride in doing things correctly
• Be dependable and show up ready to work
• Be willing to ask questions instead of guessing
• Accept coaching and feedback
• Want to continue learning
• Work well with the rest of the shop
• Respect your coworkers, our customers, and their vehicles
• Have a valid driver's license and good driving record

ASE certifications are great, but your attitude, ability, work ethic, and willingness to grow matter more to us than letters on a certificate.

Grow Your Skills — And Your Earning Potential

We want you to become more valuable as a technician, and we want you to benefit when the team succeeds.

Once you're up to speed with our systems, processes, inspections, and the way we work as a team, you'll have the opportunity to participate in our Team Pay Plan , giving you the ability to earn additional bonuses every week.

It's not about one technician competing against another.

We win as a team.

When the shop performs well and the team reaches its goals, you have the opportunity to earn more.

As your skills grow, the work you're able to take on grows. Your responsibilities grow. And so does your earning potential.

Sound Like You?

Don't overthink the application. Text Tammy at View phone number on ziprecruiter.com.

Tell me a little about what you're doing now, what you're comfortable working on, and what you'd like to learn next.

What You Won't Find Here

No weekends.

No being thrown into repairs you're not ready for and told to "figure it out."

No expectation that you magically know everything.

No being treated like you're "just the new guy."

And no expectation that you stay at the same skill level forever.

We want you to grow.

What You WILL Find Here

• $3,000 sign-on bonus
• Weekly bonus opportunity through our Team Pay Plan once you're up to speed
• Monday–Friday schedule
• No weekends
• Competitive pay based on experience and ability
• Employer-paid medical insurance

• Employer-paid vision insurance
• Employer-paid life insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off
• Paid holidays
• Sick days
• Technical training and continued education
• Hands-on coaching from experienced technicians
• Professional shop equipment and repair information
• Digital inspection technology
• Opportunities to take on more advanced repairs
• A family-owned shop where the owners are involved in the business
• A team that believes good technicians are developed, not just found

Who Is Tinley Auto Repair?

We've been serving Tinley Park and the surrounding community for more than 55 years.

We're a family-owned, full-service automotive repair shop working on all makes and models.

But fixing cars is only part of what we do.

We believe customers deserve to understand what's happening with their vehicle , see what we're seeing, and have a clear plan for what needs attention now and what can wait.

That means our technicians aren't just replacing parts.

They're an important part of earning our customers' trust.

We use thorough inspections, photos, documentation, good communication, and quality repairs to help our customers make informed decisions about their vehicles.

And we believe our employees deserve that same level of care and respect.

We invest in training. We help people develop. We work as a team. And when someone wants to become better at their craft, we want to help them get there.

You Don't Have to Be a Master Technician to Work Here.

You need a solid foundation, pride in your work, a willingness to learn, and the desire to become a better technician than you are today.

If you're looking for a shop where you can build your skills, earn more as you grow, work with a team instead of competing against one, and still have your weekends...

We should talk.
