A-Level Automotive Technician (Master Diagnostic)

A well-established, multi-location automotive repair group in the Twin Cities is seeking a top-tier A-Level Automotive Technician to help bring high-performing shops to full capacity. This role is built for a technician who thrives on diagnostics, values clean processes, and wants to be rewarded for skill—not micromanaged.

This opportunity is ideal for a flat-rate producer who wants strong pay, modern systems, and a workplace that respects technicians as professionals.

The Opportunity

• Work in a modern, full-service repair environment

• Focus on advanced diagnostics and complex repairs

• Join a growing shop group prioritizing quality over volume

• Be part of a culture centered on community, teamwork, and continuous improvement

What the Technician Will Do

• Perform advanced diagnostics and electrical troubleshooting

• Service Subaru, Toyota, and other Asian import vehicles (2005+ only)

• Handle repairs ranging from maintenance to engine replacement

• Use digital vehicle inspections through Tekmetric

• Maintain high-quality repair standards and clear documentation

• Participate in a team-oriented, professional shop environment

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Master or A-Level Automotive Technician

• Proven flat-rate producer billing 45–55 hours per week

• Strong diagnostic and electrical skillset

• Experience with Asian import vehicles preferred

• Comfortable using digital inspection and shop management software

• Solid personal tool investment

• Clean driving record

• Strong communication skills and positive team attitude

• Culture-focused mindset aligned with community-driven values

Compensation

• Hybrid flat-rate pay structure

• A-Level technicians earn $45–$50 per flat-rate hour

• Typical annual earnings of $110,000–$120,000

• Performance-based pay progression

• Additional $1 per hour for each active ASE certification

• ASE testing and online training paid by the company

Benefits Package

• Health insurance (HSA-eligible plan)

• 50% of employee premium covered after 90 days

• 401(k) with 3% company contribution after 12 months

• Paid time off

• 48 hours in year one

• 80 hours in year two

• Five paid holidays

• Boot and clothing reimbursement

The Work Environment

This shop group emphasizes professionalism, collaboration, and long-term technician growth. Team members participate in community events, internal shop activities, and continuous training. Culture fit and quality workmanship are non-negotiable.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Strong earning potential without unrealistic expectations

• Modern tools, systems, and processes

• Respect for technician expertise and autonomy

• Stable work environment with growth opportunities

Experienced A-Level technicians looking for a professional, well-run shop with top-tier pay and culture are encouraged to apply.
