Department: Service – Service Technician

Three Great Brands. One Growing Team.
At Hawk Auto Group in Peru, you'll work on three of the best brands in the business, all under one roof:

  • Chevrolet: Silverado, Duramax diesel, and the trucks that keep America working.
  • Mercedes-Benz: world-class luxury vehicles and Sprinter vans, built on precision engineering.
  • Nissan: reliable, popular cars, trucks, and SUVs that keep your bays full.

Three brands means steady work, a variety of vehicles, and factory training across all of them.

Busy Used Car Department = Steady Work
Our used car department sells about 80 vehicles a month, and every one of them comes through our shop for inspection and reconditioning before it hits the lot. We need techs to keep that flow moving, so there are plenty of hours and plenty of work.

We're Growing and Expanding
Our Peru campus is growing. We've added a brand-new detail center and have more expansion on the way, and we're building our service team to match. Get in now and grow with us.

Union Shop
We're a union shop, which means strong representation, clear pay standards, and the security of a union workplace.

Positions Available

  • Journeyman Heavy-Duty Diesel Technician: Experienced, certified diesel technicians. Top pay for top talent.
  • Semi-Skilled Technician: Some tools and basic shop experience preferred. Maintenance, brakes, tires, used car reconditioning, and light repair, with room to grow.
  • Apprentice Technician: No experience required. We train you and pay for your certifications.

What You'll Do

  • Diagnose, maintain, and repair Chevrolet, Mercedes-Benz, and Nissan vehicles
  • Inspect and recondition used vehicles for our pre-owned lot
  • Perform maintenance, inspections, and repairs to factory standards
  • Document work clearly on repair orders
  • Work alongside experienced technicians and service advisors
  • Keep a clean, safe, and organized work area

What We're Looking For

  • A strong work ethic and a willingness to learn
  • Valid driver's license
  • Journeyman: diesel experience and certifications (ASE a plus)
  • Semi-Skilled: some shop experience and your own basic tools
  • Apprentice: mechanical interest; no experience needed

What We Offer

  • Full-time union position with competitive pay
  • Health benefits, 401(k), and paid vacation
  • Factory training on three brands and a clear path to Master Technician
  • We pay for certifications
  • Steady work from a busy service and used car operation
  • A professional, team-first shop that's growing
