If you can diagnose the actual cause of a check-engine light, electrical problem, drivability concern, or unusual HVAC issue—not simply recommend parts—this shop needs your expertise.

AutoShop Recruiting has partnered with Big O Tires and Central Arizona Auto Group to hire an experienced A-Level Automotive Diagnostic Technician for its busy Glendale location. You will step into the role of the shop’s trusted diagnostic authority, commanding steady work without the unpredictable drops of a commission-based flat-rate system.

• Massive Backlog of Work: This location serviced 564 vehicles last month and drove over $194,000 in monthly sales with a strong $330 average repair order. We are currently turning away high-paying diagnostic work because we need your technical brainpower on the team.

Why Join This Shop?

• Financial Stability: Guaranteed hourly compensation—say goodbye to flat-rate fluctuations and unpaid diagnostic time.
• Premium Support: Work alongside an experienced front-counter team boasting more than 30 years in automotive service who know how to sell diagnostic time.
• The Facility: High-volume 5-service bay shop equipped with a dedicated alignment rack.
• Work-Life Balance: Dedicated family time with flexible Monday through Friday scheduling available.

Benefits and Employee Perks

• Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, prescription, dental, and vision insurance.
• Financial Protection: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D insurance, plus voluntary short-term disability and life coverage.
• Retirement & Long-Term Wealth: 401(k) with employer match + potential profit-sharing contributions.
• Time Off: Paid Time Off (PTO) and sick time.
• Extra Perks: Generous employee discounts, ongoing technical training, and clear advancement opportunities.

What You'll Do (Responsibilities)

• Diagnose check-engine lights, complex electrical systems, and drivability concerns.
• Troubleshoot EVAP, fuel-control, HVAC, and difficult intermittent problems.
• Verify root causes using scan tools, meters, scopes, and diagnostic equipment before recommending parts.
• Complete advanced mechanical repairs and component removals/replacements.
• Clearly document your testing, findings, and repair recommendations.
• Perform quality-control inspections and road tests, helping developing technicians improve their diagnostic process.

What We're Looking For (Requirements)

• Experience: Proven A-Level or strong B+ professional automotive repair and troubleshooting experience.
• Skills: Expert-level diagnostic ability with a proven track record of independently testing and verifying system failures.
• Tools: Complete set of professional automotive tools appropriate for the position (advanced diagnostic tools are a major plus).
• Credentials: Valid driver’s license and an acceptable driving record are mandatory.
• Mindset: A reliable professional with a solid work ethic and highly dependable attendance.
