Job Description

Automotive Diagnostic Technician / Lead Mechanic - Paid Hourly Up to $80K/YR

Smithville, OH | Hourly Pay—Not Flat Rate | Up to $80,000 Annually

Tired of losing pay when the schedule slows down or a difficult diagnostic job takes longer than expected? AutoShop Recruiting is partnering with an established Smithville repair shop seeking an experienced Automotive Diagnostic Technician for a full-time, hourly position.

What’s in It for Me?

  • Straight hourly compensation—not flat rate
  • Earn up to approximately $80,000 annually , based on experience
  • Get paid for the hours you work—not only the labor hours you flag
  • No fighting over repair orders or rushing through difficult jobs to protect your paycheck
  • Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM
  • No nights or weekends
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance after 30 days
  • Employer-paid individual insurance coverage
  • Employer covers 50% of dependent coverage
  • 401(k) eligibility after 90 days
  • Company-provided uniforms
  • Clean, well-equipped 6.5-bay facility
  • Shop-provided specialty tools
  • Relaxed, team-oriented environment

What You’ll Do

  • Diagnose complex electrical, drivability, and network communication problems
  • Test CAN, powertrain, body-control, and related vehicle networks beyond basic OBD-II code retrieval
  • Perform engine, timing, cylinder-head, transmission, and advanced mechanical repairs
  • Work primarily on domestic vehicles and trucks, including Ford, Chevrolet, and Chrysler
  • Complete digital vehicle inspections using Tekmetric
  • Mentor developing technicians and help improve shop productivity
  • Take challenging repairs from diagnosis through completion

What We’re Looking For

  • Motivated, Energetic Leader - Willing to Grow the Shop & Team!
  • Advanced automotive diagnostic and mechanical repair experience
  • Knowledge of modern vehicle electronics and network systems
  • Strong domestic and light-duty truck experience
  • Professional hand tools
  • Ability to work independently without bringing an ego into the shop
  • ASE certifications preferred, but proven ability matters most
  • Ability to meet applicable pre-employment requirements
