Glen, PA Full Time
POSTED ON 8/24/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/20/2026

If you’re an experienced, self-sufficient automotive technician who is tired of chaos, shortcuts, poor communication, and being treated like just another number, Cain & Sons Automotive may be the shop you’ve been looking for.

We areNOT looking for an entry-level technician or someone who needs to be constantly supervised.

We’re looking for a professional automotive technician who can diagnose problems, make quality repairs, manage their workload, and get the job done right without needing someone to look over their shoulder.

Cain & Sons Automotive is a family-owned, busy, well-equipped repair shop in Southern York County. We believe in doing things correctly, taking care of our customers, and giving good technicians the tools, information, and support they need to succeed.

What You'll Like About Working Here

  • Monday–Friday day shift
  • Consistent, steady workflow
  • Clean, heated and air-conditioned shop
  • 4 bays with modern equipment
  • ADAS and alignment equipment
  • Shop-provided scanners, diagnostic equipment, specialty tools, and test equipment
  • Paid training and continuing education
  • You are trusted to do your job without being micromanaged
  • Family-owned shop where your contribution matters

Compensation & Benefits

$60,000–$150,000 per year

Earning potential is based on experience, skill level, productivity, and flagged hours.

Benefits include:

  • Performance bonuses
  • Health insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Life insurance
  • IRA with company match
  • Paid vacation
  • Paid holidays
  • Paid training and continuing education
  • Paid licensing
  • Employee discounts

What You'll Be Doing

This is a hands-on diagnostic and repair position, not a basic maintenance role.

You will be expected to:

  • Diagnose drivability, electrical, mechanical, and vehicle system problems
  • Perform repairs accurately and efficiently
  • Handle challenging diagnostic and repair work
  • Follow a job from diagnosis through completed repair
  • Communicate clearly with service advisors
  • Document findings and recommendations professionally
  • Verify repairs before returning vehicles to customers
  • Maintain quality, safety, cleanliness, and organization in your work area
  • Manage your time and workload without constant supervision
  • Assist or mentor less-experienced technicians when needed

Who We're Looking For

This position is for an experienced professional technician who can work independently.

You should have:

  • 5 years of verifiable professional automotive repair experience
  • Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting skills
  • The ability to diagnose problems instead of simply replacing parts until something works
  • Strong electrical and drivability skills
  • PA State Inspection & Emissions License
  • Valid driver's license
  • Your own basic hand tools
  • Good communication and documentation habits
  • Professional attitude and appearance
  • Pride in the quality of your work
  • The ability to stay productive without constant direction

Most importantly, you need to be someone we can hand a vehicle and a repair order to and trust that you'll take ownership of the job.

We provide the workflow, equipment, specialty tools, information, and support. We're looking for a technician who brings the experience, professionalism, accountability, and drive.
