You should be comfortable using factory information and professional scan tools to work through a problem instead of just throwing parts at it.

Key Responsibilities:

• Handle larger repairs such as engine and transmission replacement or repair.
• Diagnose advanced electronic systems and driver-assistance systems.
• Perform ADAS calibrations when required.
• Help other technicians with difficult diagnostic problems and repair procedures.
• Work with Service Advisors to explain what you find and what the vehicle needs.
• Keep up with Nissan training and changes in vehicle technology.
• Stay familiar with Nissan EV systems, including LEAF technology, as well as newer driver-assistance systems.
• Follow Nissan procedures and warranty requirements.
• Keep jobs moving without sacrificing the quality of the repair.
• Speak up when you see something that could be done better or more efficiently in the shop.

Who We’re Looking For:

• 10+ years of automotive repair experience.
• At least 5 years of experience working on Japanese vehicles. Nissan experience is preferred.
• Nissan Master Certification is preferred. If you don't have it yet, you must be willing to work toward it.
• ASE L1 certification is a plus. Other ASE certifications are also a plus.
• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Automotive technical school or formal training is preferred.
• Strong diagnostic skills and the ability to work through a problem logically.
• Good electrical and mechanical troubleshooting skills.
• Mentoring other team members.
• Able to work in a busy shop and stay productive without cutting corners.

Qualifications: Jeff Wyler Benefits:

• Competitive flat-rate pay based on experience and certifications.
• Medical, dental, vision insurance, 401(K) and more!
• Paid vacation and holidays.
• Paid training
• Growth opportunities
• Modern shop and diagnostic equipment.
• Performance and recognition programs.
