Responsibilities

• Perform minor automotive services for fleet and commercial accounts, including tire changes, oil changes, and related basic maintenance.
• Work on a wide range of tire applications, including agriculture, forklift, lawnmower, truck, and automotive tires.
• Use jacks to safely hoist vehicles and remove, bolt, and unbolt tires according to proper procedures.
• Move tires throughout the shop and organize the warehouse to ensure an efficient and orderly work area.
• Maintain a clean and safe environment in the warehouse and service areas.
• Support the service department in handling both appointments and walk-in customers on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Fulfill customer service requests promptly and professionally, addressing service needs and answering basic questions.
• Drive the company service truck as needed to complete on-site customer service calls once trained and comfortable with tire applications.
• Gradually take on customer service calls outside the shop after becoming proficient with agriculture, fleet, and auto tires.
• Collaborate with other service technicians to manage workflow in the shipping/receiving, service, and retread areas.
• Follow safety guidelines when using hand tools, power tools, and air tools during service and repair work.
• Demonstrate reliability and consistency in day-to-day duties, contributing to a strong record of longevity in the role.
• Remain open to the possibility of overnight service calls once hired on permanently, supporting customer needs as required.

• Mechanical aptitude with the ability to perform basic automotive and tire-related service.
• Previous mechanic experience or prior tire service experience.
• Ability to use hand tools, power tools, and air tools safely and effectively.
• Capability to perform physical labor, including lifting, moving, and installing tires in a demanding environment.
• Customer service skills to interact with fleet and commercial customers regarding their service needs.
• Reliability and readiness to work Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience as a service technician in automotive, tire, or general labor environments.
• Familiarity with brake pad work and basic auto service procedures.
• Comfort working with production-style workflows in a warehouse and service setting.
• Willingness to learn and handle every tire application, from small equipment to large truck and agriculture tires.
• Openness to eventually support overnight service work once hired on permanently, if needed.

Why Work Here?

This opportunity offers a clear path for growth in a specialized trade, with pay increases tied directly to your ability to handle a wider range of tire applications and responsibilities. You join a close-knit service team where hard work, reliability, and mechanical aptitude are recognized and rewarded. The environment encourages independence, hands-on learning, and long-term career development for those who are willing to take on challenging work and expand their skills.

Work Environment

The role is based in a basic warehouse facility divided into shipping/receiving, service, and retread areas. The environment can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter, and the work is physically demanding, often leaving you sore after a full day. The standard shift runs Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with a one-hour lunch break and occasional shorter breaks. Once hired on permanently, you must be open to the full-time schedule and may be asked to work some Saturdays or support overnight service calls, though overnight work is not guaranteed. You will work alongside a small team of service technicians in an active, production-oriented setting, using hand tools, power tools, and air tools to complete service tasks. The dress code requires work shoes, jeans, and eye protection; ear plugs are available if desired. Uniforms are ordered after permanent hire, with employees contributing to part of the uniform cost.
