Lead / Master Technician – Back Shop Leadership Role

Precision Tune Auto Care – Opelika, AL

Precision Tune Auto Care – Opelika is seeking an experienced Lead / Master Technician to step into a key leadership role within our back shop. This position is designed for a technician who wants more than a traditional flat-rate role — someone who values leadership, accountability, teamwork, and performance-based upside.

---

Role Overview

The Lead / Master Technician serves as the technical and cultural leader of the back shop, supporting production quality, mentoring technicians, and helping drive consistent, profitable performance.

This is not a traditional hourly or flat-rate role. Compensation is aligned with results and overall shop success.

Compensation Structure (Performance-Based) Technician Labor Pool

• Weekly labor pool equal to 20% of customer-billed labor

• Shared among all production technicians

• Pool size scales directly with shop performance

Lead / Master Technician Share

• The Lead / Master Technician receives a primary share of the technician labor pool, reflective of leadership responsibility, experience, and impact

• In the current staffing model, this equates to approximately 50% of the technician pool, plus a $300 weekly leadership stipend

Dynamic Scaling Provision

• Technician pool percentages are not fixed entitlements

• As additional junior or mid-level technicians are added, individual pool percentages may be adjusted to reflect:

  • Team size

  • Skill mix

  • Hours worked

  • Overall contribution

• Any such adjustments are made to ensure:

  • The relative weighting of the Lead / Master Technician role remains intact

  • The structure remains fair, scalable, and sustainable as the shop grows

Earnings Potential

• Historical average earnings: ~$2,000+ per week

• Earnings scale upward with increased billed labor and shop growth

• No artificial cap on upside

---

Schedule & Work Expectations

• Schedule is set by the shop operator to ensure coverage and workflow consistency

• This role operates on a full-time schedule consistent with leadership responsibilities

• Some flexibility may be available based on operational needs and performance

• Occasional early starts or extended days may be required depending on workload

While this position offers more flexibility than an entry-level role, it is not self-scheduled. Reliability, availability, and presence are essential.

---

Why This Role Is Different

• No hourly wage

• No overtime pay

• No flat-rate competition

Instead, this role offers:

• Leadership responsibility within the back shop

• Compensation tied to real results

• Alignment with team success rather than individual isolation

• Long-term growth potential as the shop grows
