Job Description

Senior Automotive Technician

Great American Tire & Auto Repair ~ 1890 E Grand Ave. Lindenhurst, IL 60046

Join a Team That Values Skill, Integrity, and “GREAT-ness!”

Great American Tire & Auto is a family operated full-service repair facility serving northeastern Illinois since 1999, and southeastern Wisconsin since 2021!

Yes, we are a family business; but we are not just a two-bay garage off of a main road. We have an established presence in both of our respected communities allowing for constant workflow and upbeat experiences.

Our Lindenhurst, IL facility includes ten service bays that see roughly 500-600 cars a month, plenty of room for more toolboxes, and the necessary materials to welcome a new member to our team!

We are looking for an experienced technician to join our operation in Lindenhurst, IL. We service domestic, import, and European vehicles, taking pride in delivering honesty, quality workmanship, and first-class customer service.

If you're tired of being treated like a number at your shop/dealer, and want to work in an environment where your experience is valued and accounted for, we'd love to meet you!

What We Offer

• Consistent year-round workload
• Professional work environments
• Supportive management understanding roles and operational organization
• Paid time off (PTO)
• Health and retirement benefits
• Hands on role development opportunities

Who We're Looking For

We are not looking for a parts changer. We are looking for a technician who enjoys diagnosing problems, takes pride in fixing vehicle errors correctly the first time, and wants to be part of a team that drives quality over quantity.

If you're an experienced technician looking for a shop to call 2nd home, apply now!

What You'll Do

• Diagnose and repair all makes and models
• Perform advanced drivability and electrical diagnostics
• Repair engines, suspension, steering, brakes, HVAC, and driveline systems
• Complete maintenance according to manufacturer recommendations and customer requests

• Maintain efficiency while producing high-quality work
• Consult needs and your unique expertise with the team to ensure efficient operations
• Remember, you are at the heart of a vehicle’s service process; we value our technicians here as the individuals that can be accredited for greatness!
