What are the responsibilities and job description for the Master Automotive Technician (A-Tech) position at Family Automotive Center?
Master Automotive Technician - Diagnostic Lead
Family Automotive Center - Port Jefferson Station, NY
$2,000/week guaranteed for your first 60 days
$112,000-$135,000 at 45-60 billed hours after that
Family-owned repair shop and used car dealership on Route 112, open since
2011. Five bays, seven lifts, and about 340 cars a month coming through the
door.
We're busy. 340 cars a month through five bays, and the diagnostic side has
grown faster than we can absorb it. Our techs are good and their bays are
full. What we need is somebody to take the hard diagnostic work and own it.
That's this job. The driveability problems, the electrical faults, the
intermittents that came back twice already. You work them with a scope and
a wiring diagram and you get to the actual answer.
If you're the tech other shops call when they're stuck, this is the seat.
THE WORK
Hard driveability and electrical diagnosis, start to finish. Scope work.
Wiring diagrams. The jobs that need somebody who can think, not somebody who
can look up a code and order the part it points at.
We diagnose before we replace. If you've ever been pushed to throw a sensor
at something you knew wasn't the sensor, that's not how we work here.
Steady volume. 340 cars a month means the work is there - you're not going
to be standing around waiting for something to come in.
PAY
$2,000 per week, guaranteed, for your first 60 days while you learn our
customers and our cars. You don't eat the ramp-up. That's on us.
After 60 days: base plus per billed hour. At 45 to 60 billed hours a week,
that's $112,000 to $135,000 a year.
Straight answer on that guarantee, because you've probably seen guarantees
that were bait: $2,000/week is exactly what our pay plan pays at 40 billed
hours. It's not a promotional number. It's the plan itself, at a pace we
think is realistic while you're getting up to speed. We'll show you the
whole calculation in the interview and you can run it yourself.
W-2, on the books, taxes withheld.

- 5 years A-level experience, strong on electrical and driveability
- Comfortable with a lab scope - Pico or Autel - and reading wiring
diagrams
- Diagnoses before replacing
