Join a High-Quality, Growing Auto Repair Shop

Lakeshore Tire & Auto Service is a well-established, family-oriented shop focused on doing the job right, not rushing volume.

What We’re Looking For

  • A-Level Technician (or strong B-Tech ready to step up)
  • State of Michigan certifications (or actively pursuing)
  • Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting skills
  • Experience with scan tools and modern diagnostic equipment
  • Ability to handle jobs independently from diagnosis to completion
  • Pride in quality work — not shortcuts


Compensation & Bonus Structure

  • $25–$33/hour base (based on experience and capability)
  • Performance bonus based on:
  • Productivity (hours produced vs. available)
  • Quality of work (comebacks matter)
  • Team contribution

Benefits

  • Ongoing training & certifications
  • Investment in tools and equipment
