Job description

European Automotive Technician
German Autowerke Inc. — Oceanside, CA

If you’re the technician everyone comes to for difficult diagnostics, electrical problems, drivability issues, or the jobs nobody else can figure out — keep reading.
German Autowerke is a dealership-level independent shop specializing exclusively in BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, Volkswagen, and MINI. We are not a high-volume discount shop, and we are not looking for entry-level technicians.
We’re looking for an experienced European diagnostic technician who takes pride in fixing vehicles correctly, documenting thoroughly, and working in a professional environment without flat-rate games, chaos, or micromanagement.
What Makes This Different:
  • No weekends. Ever.
  • No nights.
  • No holidays.
  • No “sell everything” culture.
  • No rushed guesswork diagnostics.
  • No management breathing down your neck.

We focus on:
  • Proper diagnostics.
  • OE-level repair procedures.
  • High-quality workmanship.
  • Long-term customer relationships.
  • A real 4-year / 40,000-mile warranty.

If you care more about fixing cars correctly than beating book time at all costs, you’ll probably fit in well here.
Compensation:
  • Base salary starting around $5,600/month depending on experience.
  • Production bonus structure up to $70/flagged hour.
  • Typical experienced technician earnings: $92,000–$136,000+.
  • Top performers can earn substantially more.

Benefits:
  • 50% employer-paid health insurance.
  • 3% 401(k) match.
  • Paid vacation.
  • Paid holidays.
  • Closed weekends.
  • Modern, well-lit facility.
  • Factory-level scan tools.
  • PicoScope.
  • ISTA, XENTRY, ODIS, PIWIS access.
  • Strong workflow systems and support staff.

What We’re Looking For:
Required:
  • 5+ years automotive experience.
  • Strong European vehicle diagnostic ability.
  • Ability to diagnose electrical, drivability, CAN/network, and mechanical faults.
  • Ability to use wiring diagrams and scopes confidently.
  • Professional communication and documentation.
  • Pride in workmanship.

Preferred:
  • BMW ISTA experience.
  • Mercedes XENTRY experience.
  • PicoScope experience.
  • ASE or manufacturer certifications.
  • Previous European shop experience.

This Is Probably NOT a Good Fit If:
  • You struggle with diagnostics.
  • You rely heavily on parts swapping.
  • You dislike documentation or DVIs.
  • You need constant supervision.
  • You want a fast-paced “production only” environment.
  • You’re looking for the easiest shop possible.

About German Autowerke:
  • Over 35 years serving North County San Diego.
  • 250+ five-star reviews.
  • Family-owned.
  • Professional customer base.
  • Dealership-level clientele without dealership politics.
