About the Opportunity

Are you currently employed and simply curious about a better opportunity? We would still like to talk.

We want great technicians spending their time diagnosing and repairing vehicles-not dealing with corporate dealership politics. Join an established Rochester Hills shop serving the community since 1992, featuring a small, experienced team where your expertise truly matters. For the right person, this role offers a clear path to grow from A-Level Technician to Lead Technician, Shop Foreman, or Technical Manager as the business expands.

• Competitive Pay: $45 - $55/hour with weekly pay
• Schedule: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM (No Saturdays or Sundays)
• Paid Time Off: 80 hours PTO + 72 hours paid sick time
• Paid Holidays: 6 paid holidays
• Health Benefits: Health insurance (employer pays 50%)
• Career Growth: ASE testing and certifications paid for by the shop
• Welcome Bonus: Signing / retention bonus of up to $5,000

You'll handle the type of work that requires real experience and diagnostic ability, focusing on quality over rushing cars through the shop:

• Advanced vehicle diagnostics and electrical troubleshooting
• Drivability concerns
• Transmission diagnosis, repair, and replacement
• Engine diagnosis and major mechanical repair
• Complex repairs other technicians may not be equipped to handle
• General A-Level automotive repair when needed

You'll have the independence to diagnose vehicles properly and recommend the right repair every time.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of professional automotive repair experience
• Strong diagnostic and electrical abilities
• A-Level / Master-level mechanical skills
• Transmission experience strongly preferred
• Valid driver's license
