AllState Auto Repair has partnered with AutoShop Recruiting to hire an experienced, high-level Automotive Diagnostic Technician for our busy independent general repair and transmission facility in DeSoto.
If you are the elite technician that other mechanics turn to when a vehicle doesn't make sense, we want to talk to you. We are looking for a true diagnostic specialist who thrives on tracing complex electrical, network, and drivability issues—not a parts changer who simply reads a trouble code. This position offers excellent stability, state-of-the-art resources, and clear career path advancement into foreman responsibilities.
- We Value Your Diagnostic Mind: Stop giving away your diagnostic time for free. We authorize one diagnostic hour upfront on testing orders, and our service team actively sells additional diagnostic time when complex tracing is required.
Why Consider AllState Auto Repair?
- Premium Earning Potential: $40.00 – $65.00 per flagged hour, paid out weekly.
- Strong, Consistent Volume: A busy 11-stall facility turning 60–80 vehicles weekly, fully supported by 5 dedicated service advisors to keep your bays loaded.
- Shop Comfort: Work comfortably year-round in a fully air-conditioned shop.
- Certification Bonuses: Get rewarded for your knowledge—receive an extra $150 for each new or updated certification you hold or achieve.
- Immediate Benefits: Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance options (HMO & PPO) available beginning day one.
What You'll Do (Responsibilities)
- Diagnose complex electrical, drivability, network/CAN, and advanced mechanical concerns.
- Utilize modern scan tools, lab scopes, wiring diagrams, and diagnostic equipment to isolate vehicle faults.
- Identify the definitive root cause of a failure and recommend exact, accurate repairs (no shotgunning parts).
- Complete advanced mechanical and transmission-related repairs with a high attention to workmanship.
- Communicate diagnostic findings, testing documentation, and additional fluid/repair needs clearly to service advisors.
- Verify all completed repairs thoroughly to ensure the original customer concern is fully resolved.
What We're Looking For (Requirements)
- Experience: 4 or more years of professional automotive technician experience in a full-service commercial shop environment.
- Skills: Expert-level diagnostic, problem-solving, and advanced automotive systems knowledge.
- Tools: Complete set of professional technician tools and diagnostic equipment appropriate for an A-Level pro.
- Credentials: Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record are mandatory. High school diploma or equivalent.
Preferred Qualifications (Not Required)
- Current ASE A1–A8 and/or L1 certifications.
- Completion of an accredited Automotive Technology program.
