Experienced Auto Tech

Description


Master Techs: You ever sit in your truck at the end of the shift... engine off... and just feel it?

That thing you can't quite name. Not anger. Not exactly burnout either. Just... this isn't it.

Now…

Maybe your shop's fine. The check clears. Nobody's yelling at you. But somewhere underneath all that, you know you're better than what you're doing right now.

Or maybe you've watched the gravy work go to whoever's buddy-buddy with the front desk, while you get stuck with whatever's left. And maybe, deep down, you're just tired of being good enough to rely on but never good enough to actually get ahead.

If any of that sounds familiar... keep reading.

That’s because The Mechanics Tire & Auto isn't your typical shop.

Here, you get 3 bays to yourself. Not shared. Not fought over. Yours. Work gets handed out based on skill and availability, period. No pet techs. No politics. Your foreman actually turned wrenches for years and taught diagnostics at UTI's NASCAR tech school, so he knows exactly what you're dealing with. He's out in the shop with you, not hiding behind a desk.

And we're not stuck in place either. We're growing fast... up 40% in revenue this quarter alone... with real plans to expand. That means steady work, real opportunity, and an actual path toward ownership if that's where you want to go.

No weekends. Ever.

Not "usually." Not "unless we're slammed." Closed, on purpose, so you get your life back.

You don't have to settle for "fine" anymore.

So, if that feeling in your truck is telling you it's time... then keep reading.

✅ HERE'S WHAT WE PROMISE OUR TECHS:

  • $90K–$110K+/year – base salary plus hourly commission on every billed hour, so your work actually pays you back
  • Weekly team bonus on top of your production, because when the shop wins, you win too
  • Health insurance – 50% employer-paid
  • Life insurance policy, fully covered
  • Voluntary dental, vision, and even pet insurance if you want it
  • 10 paid vacation days plus 5 paid sick days, accrued annually
  • Paid holidays
  • No weekends. Ever. Monday–Friday, 8 to 5, and that's it
  • 401(k) available to contribute to
  • 3 bays to yourself. No fighting for lift time, no waiting your turn
✓ NO WEEKENDS, EVER – We're closed on Saturdays and Sundays. On purpose. Monday through Friday, 8 to 5, so you actually get your life back. No mandatory overtime, no last-minute weekend call-ins.

✓ WE'LL KEEP YOU BUSY – We're up 40% in revenue this quarter alone and still growing. That means steady work, full bays, and a paycheck that reflects it, not slow weeks where you're standing around waiting on the phone to ring.

✓ YOU'LL LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY – Domestic, import, Euro, fleet, light-duty diesel. We work on just about everything that rolls through the door. If you like variety and hate doing the same job on repeat, you'll fit right in.

✓ YOUR VOICE ACTUALLY MATTERS HERE – Decision-makers are on-site, not stuck at some corporate office three states away. Got an idea or a problem? The desk you'd walk up to is right by where you turn your keys in.

✓ NO GRAVY WORK, NO PET TECHS – Work gets handed out based on availability and skill. Period. No playing favorites, no politics, no wondering why the easy jobs always land on someone else's bay.

✓ NO MICROMANAGING – If things are running smooth, you're left alone to do your job. If something's off, someone will actually say something instead of letting it fester into a bigger problem.

✓ A REAL PATH TO OWNERSHIP – We're growing, and for the right person, there's a legitimate opportunity to invest in the business as we expand. This isn't just a job. It's a place you can actually build something.

✓ YOU'LL BE PART OF SOMETHING SPECIAL – We run a charity car show every spring, throw a real Christmas party with the whole team, and recognize an Employee of the Quarter. It's a team-and-family shop, not just a punch-in punch-out gig.

✓ A BOSS WHO'S ACTUALLY TURNED WRENCHES – Your foreman spent years working as a tech himself (and even taught diagnostics at UTI's NASCAR tech school). He knows what you're dealing with because he's lived it, and he's still out in the shop with you every day.
