Lead Automotive Technician / Shop Master Mechanic

Job Title: Lead Automotive Technician / Shop Master Mechanic

Location: Seven Hills, OH 44131

Job Type: Full-Time, Monday to Friday (No Weekends Required!)

Salary: $38.00 - $45.00 per hour (Hourly, non-flat rate) + Year-End Performance Bonus

Benefits: 50% Employer-Covered Health, Dental, and Vision | Earned PTO Plan

AutoShop Recruiting has partnered with an established independent automotive group to locate a high-performing Lead Master Technician for an incredibly busy, high-volume service center in Seven Hills, OH.

This role is structured entirely on an hourly basis to completely eliminate the high-pressure sales quotas and unstable paycheck cycles of standard flat-rate dealership flags. You will work alongside an exceptional Service Manager to maintain floor flow, diagnose advanced vehicular concerns, and directly guide a highly enthusiastic junior crew.

What We Offer You:

• Stable Earnings: Guaranteed competitive hourly wage up to $42/hr with unexpected bonuses treated with respect.
• True Work-Life Protection: Complete Monday-Friday operations—your weekends belong completely to you.
• Future Infrastructure Growth: Direct involvement in our multi-year facility plans, including an upcoming two-bay shop expansion.
• Drivetrain Diversification: Take part in launching our newest pipeline focused on European diagnostic lines (BMW, Mercedes, Audi).

Core Accountabilities:

• Execute precision electrical diagnosis and trace complex malfunctioning components using advanced diagnostic equipment.
• Document systematic vehicle checkups clearly through our modern digital shop management network (TekMetric).
• Provide active shop-floor mentorship and skills coaching to apprentice mechanics and a fast-learning loop technician.

Position Requirements:

• 6+ years of documented professional auto-repair service experience.
• Superior familiarity with diagnostic software, electrical tracing, and multi-system mechanical overhauls.
• Deep pride in teaching others; you enjoy actively lifting up younger techs on your floor.
• Valid driver’s license with a clean driving abstract.
• Master ASE certificates are strongly preferred.

Compensation & Perks

• Up to $45/hr based on experience and production
• Performance-based bonuses and earning potential
• Updated equipment and diagnostic tools
• Paid training and continued education
• Health benefits, PTO, and holidays
• Steady workflow — no shortage of hours

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is a well-run, growth-oriented shop where technicians are respected, supported, and kept busy. Leadership understands that great techs don’t come from job boards — they come from environments where they can produce, grow, and make strong income without the headaches.

If you’re tired of bouncing around or being underutilized, this is a chance to step into a role where your diagnostic ability is the centerpiece — not an afterthought.

How to Apply

If you’re a Technician looking for steady work, clear expectations, and a well-run shop, we’d like to speak with you.
