  • Experience with oil changes, brakes, tires, and general maintenance
  • Strong work ethic and reliability

  • Team-oriented mindset with professional communication

We value mechanics who show up consistently, work well with others, and focus on getting the job done right the first time.

Schedule & Growth

  • 30–40 hours per week (part-time to full-time)
  • Hours are very likely to reach 40 hours, though not guaranteed
  • Opportunity to grow into a larger role as the fleet expands
