Automotive Diagnostic Technician – $83K–$104K | Strong Tools, High Volume, No Flat Rate Stress
Top Reasons Techs Join Our Shop
- $40–$50/hr hourly pay (not flat rate games)
- $83,000–$104,000 annual earning potential
- Steady 230-car/month workflow (you will stay busy)
- Strong diagnostic and programming capability
- 4-bay independent shop with loyal customer base and excellent reputation

How to Apply (Important)
We move fast — and so should you.
Step 1: Apply
Step 2: Complete a quick phone interview with our AI assistant “Paige” (takes about 10 minutes)
After you apply, you’ll receive an automated text message with a phone number you can call at your convenience to complete the interview.
Candidates who complete the Paige interview get priority in the hiring process.
About the Shop
We are a 40+ year established independent repair shop with deep roots in the community and a strong Google reputation. We recently transitioned into new management under a long-time technician who has effectively run the shop for years and brings real-world experience into leadership.
This is a small, focused 4-bay shop that is actively improving systems, workflow, and technician experience while keeping things simple:
Do good work. Stay productive. Be supported.
We are not a high-pressure production mill—but we are busy, consistent, and serious about quality.
Pay & Schedule
- $40–$50/hr hourly (not flat rate)
- $83K–$104K yearly potential
- 40 hours per week
- Consistent workload with ~230 cars/month
What You’ll Work With
We invest in tools that allow technicians to succeed:
- Factory programming tools for Ford and GM
- Snap-on and Autel diagnostic platforms with oscilloscopes
- Xhorse key cutting system
- Multiple key programming platforms
- Mitchell ProDemand
- Identifix
If you are a diagnostic-minded technician who likes solving problems instead of guessing, you’ll have what you need here.
What We’re Looking For
We are hiring an A or strong B-level Automotive Technician who can:
- Diagnose and repair vehicles efficiently and accurately
- Work independently without constant oversight
- Stay productive in a steady-flow environment
- Take pride in quality workmanship and accountability
This is a strong fit for technicians who want consistency, support, and real diagnostic work—not flat rate pressure or inconsistent hours.
Shop Culture & Environment
- Small, 4-bay independent shop (tight-knit, not corporate)
- Laid-back environment with clear expectations for productivity
- No micromanagement
- Strong community reputation and loyal customer base
- Office is air-conditioned, shop bays are not
- Leadership includes a working technician with 30 years experience
We know what it takes to fix cars—and we respect the people who do it well.
Equipment & Technology
- Ford & GM factory programming tools
- Snap-on and Autel diagnostic platforms with oscilloscopes
- Xhorse key cutting and multiple programming tools
- Mitchell ProDemand and Identifix for repair information
You will not be stuck without information or equipment here.
Time Off & Benefits
- Approximately 3 weeks PTO annually
- Full week off for Christmas
- Full week off for July 4th
- Additional PTO flexibility after tenure for strong performers
How the Process Works
- Apply to this posting
- Complete the Paige AI phone interview
- Short interview with the shop
- Working interview for selected candidates
If you’re a strong technician, you won’t be waiting long for a response.
