Job description

AUTO MECHANIC / AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN — LUGOFF, SC

In Lugoff, cars don’t just “need service.” They show up acting like they’ve survived a full‑contact sport.

Lugoff drivers bring in vehicles with attitude. You’ll see trucks that have hauled more firewood than a lumber mill, family SUVs that smell like last summer’s lake trip, commuters who swear their car 'only rattles when I pass the high school,' and the South Carolina classic: 'It started acting funny after I drove through that mud hole… but it looked shallow, I swear.'

This shop wants a technician who can handle the chaos — the mystery clunks, the 'my cousin tried to fix it,' the dashboards that light up like a Carolina State Fair ride, and the engines that sound like they’re begging for retirement. They want the tech who can diagnose a problem before the hood even pops, who doesn’t flinch when a customer says 'Google said it might be the alternator,' and who can bring a vehicle back from the brink with skill, speed, and a little mechanical sorcery.

Ready to work somewhere that doesn’t make you want to drive into the Congaree River?

What You’ll Be Doing

• Real diagnostics — not “swap parts until something works”
• Repairs on domestic & import vehicles
• Maintenance, brakes, suspension, electrical, and engine work
• Keeping customers safe and their vehicles road‑worthy
• Staying busy — this shop does not believe in slow days

What You Bring

• Experience as an Automotive Technician, Auto Mechanic, or ASE Tech
• Ability to diagnose and repair modern vehicles accurately
• Pride in doing the job right the first time
• A team‑focused mindset
• Certifications are great, but not required

What You Get

• Strong pay based on experience & skill
• A shop culture that actually respects technicians
• Updated tools, diagnostic equipment, and support
• A stable, reputable dealership group in Lugoff
• Real opportunities for advancement
