Job Description

Pay: $50-$67 an hour

Stress-Free Auto Care | Full-Time | Hourly pay + Weekly bonus up to $600

Your Skills. Your Experience. Your Career.

Stress-Free Auto Care is looking for experienced A-Level/Master Automotive Technicians who can diagnose complex problems, perform quality repairs, and take pride in their work.

If you're the technician other technicians turn to when the diagnosis gets difficult, we want to meet you.

What You'll Do

  • Own the diagnosis: find what is wrong and what the customer needs, then repair it bumper-to-bumper

  • Handle complex drivability, electrical, diagnostic, and intermittent concerns

  • Diagnose CAN/network and no-code faults using proper testing methods

  • Use professional scan tools, scopes, OEM service information, and diagnostic equipment

  • Take on the shop's hardest jobs, including comebacks and repairs other technicians are stuck on

  • Perform quality repairs and thoroughly document your work

  • Work with service advisors to accurately diagnose and communicate customer concerns

  • Maintain high standards for quality and safety

What We're Looking For

  • 7-10+ years of professional automotive repair experience preferred

  • Proven A-Level/Master Technician experience

  • Strong diagnostic and electrical skills

  • Experience with professional scan tools and OEM/aftermarket repair information

  • L1 Advanced Engine Performance strongly preferred

  • Hybrid/EV and ADAS experience is a plus

  • Professional tool set

  • Valid driver's license and ability to drive manual-transmission vehicles

  • Strong communication, documentation, and troubleshooting skills

Certifications are not required to be hired. We support ongoing training and certification testing.

Tools That Work for You

Our technicians work from shop-floor tablets running software we build ourselves, shaped by feedback from our own techs. It's there to cut the paperwork so you spend your day on cars, not at the counter.

  • Available in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Chinese, AI assistant included. Pick your language once and it stays that way.

  • Your jobs and notes on one screen, right at your bay

  • Digital inspections with photos that go straight to the customer, so you explain once and get fewer trips to the front

  • Your hours and your weekly bonus, updated as you earn them

  • An AI diagnostic assistant that can suggest next tests and draft your write-up. Use it as much or as little as you like: the call is always yours.

If you can use a smartphone, you can use our tablets, and we'll show you how. If you like new tools, you'll help decide how ours get better.

Compensation

  • Hourly pay within the range posted for this location, based on experience and skills

  • Weekly performance bonus of up to $600 a week, on top of your hourly pay

  • Paid hourly for every hour worked

  • A clear path to the next level, with paid training along the way

Our pay is designed so your earnings aren't limited by a traditional flat-rate system.

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision

  • PTO and paid holidays

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Paid technical and manufacturer training

  • ADAS training opportunities

  • Employee discounts on parts and services

  • Technician referral bonuses

Physical Requirements

Ability to stand, walk, bend, kneel, crouch, crawl, and reach throughout the workday; occasionally lift 50+ pounds; safely operate lifts, tools, equipment, and vehicles; work in a fast-paced automotive environment; and wear required PPE.
