This role is ideal for someone who takes pride in craftsmanship, enjoys solving unique technical challenges, and wants to work on a diverse range of vehicles — from vintage builds to modern exotic and performance platforms.

This is not a production-line technician role. Every vehicle and project is different, requiring attention to detail, creativity, and a commitment to delivering exceptional results. The ideal candidate is highly organized, self-motivated, and genuinely passionate about automotive performance and customization.

    • Intake and exhaust systems
    • Performance enhancements
    • Electrical and electronic integrations
    • Mechanical repairs and troubleshooting
  • Conduct detailed vehicle inspections and accurately diagnose complex technical issues
  • Work collaboratively with fabrication, electronics, and project teams to support custom vehicle builds
  • Maintain clean, organized, and professional work practices at all times
  • Ensure all work meets high-quality craftsmanship and performance standards
  • Assist with prototype installations, custom modifications, and specialty automotive projects
  • Contribute to maintaining a safe, efficient, and detail-oriented shop environment

Required Qualifications

  • Diploma or degree in Automotive Technology, Automotive Repair, or related field
  • Minimum of 5 years of technician experience supporting luxury, exotic, European, or performance vehicle brands
  • Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting experience across mechanical and electrical systems
  • Experience with performance modifications including suspension, intake, exhaust, and related upgrades
  • Broad knowledge across multiple automotive manufacturers and vehicle platforms
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively within a team environment
  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and organizational skills
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-quality workmanship
  • Must provide personal technician tools
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with custom vehicle builds or aftermarket automotive modifications
  • Fabrication or metalworking experience
  • Familiarity with advanced vehicle electronics and integrated systems
  • Experience working with collector, exotic, or specialty vehicles
  • Passion for automotive craftsmanship and enthusiast culture

What Makes This Opportunity Unique

  • Opportunity to work on rare, high-end, and highly customized vehicles
  • Clean, organized, and technology-driven workshop environment
  • Exposure to cutting-edge tools, fabrication methods, and custom automotive technologies
  • Collaborative team culture focused on craftsmanship and innovation
  • Diverse project work with no repetitive production-line environment
