Automotive Technician

Zabor Automotive | Naperville, Illinois | Full-Time

We pay 100% of your health insurance premium • Monday–Friday, never a weekend

About Zabor Automotive:

Pull into any of our shops — Rockdale (Joliet) , Crest Hill, or Naperville — and you'll notice the same thing: people who actually like working together. We're a family-owned, ASE-certified team that handles everything from daily drivers to European imports. We share tools, share laughs, share what we know, and nobody gets left fighting a stubborn diagnosis on their own. We keep things light, we keep each other honest, and we hold a high bar on every job that rolls out the door. If you do great work and want to be part of a crew instead of just another number, you'll fit right in.

Our owner, Stephen, is an ASE Master Technician with 24 years in the trade. He still knows what's under the hood, he sets the standard here, and when a car genuinely stumps you, you're not calling a hotline — you're calling someone who has already fixed it.

Naperville is our third store, opening this fall. Everything in it is new — the bays, the equipment, the crew — and the people who build it are the ones who grow with us.

What We Pay:

Flat rate, with a guaranteed weekly minimum.
Fast-paced shops. We stay busy and we move. You won't be standing around waiting on a car, and you won't be watching the clock to get to quitting time.
We're not a shop where techs compete for the good tickets. We are a team after one goal. The person next to you isn't your competition — they're the reason you're both getting out on time.

Health Insurance — We Pay The Full Premium

This is the part most shops won't put in writing, so we will:

Zabor pays 100% of your health insurance premium.

Not a stipend. Not half. Not a “plans available” line you have to call HR to decode.

Go read the other technician ads in this market. One of them tells you flat out that half the premium comes out of your check. Most of them don't tell you anything. Depending on your coverage, that difference is worth thousands of dollars a year real money that never shows up in a quoted pay range. We'd rather you compare.

The Rest of the Goodies:

401(k) with company contribution.
Paid training, and we cover your ASE certification costs — you keep the credentials.
Toolbox moving assistance if you're coming to us from another shop.
9 paid holidays — plus your birthday off, paid.
Paid time off that grows with tenure: 7 days to start, 13 days at years 3–4, 20 days at 5+.
Air-conditioned shop. Every bay.
Factory-level scan tools, alignment rack, and full digital inspection setup on tablets.
Uniforms provided.
Annual shoe allowance.
Monday through Friday. Closed weekends. Every one of them. The shops down the road are advertising Saturdays, second shift, and “Sundays off.” We're closed both days, every week.

What You'll Do:

Diagnose and repair across all systems: engine, transmission, drivetrain, brakes, steering and suspension, A/C, electrical, hybrid, and advanced diagnostics.
Work a real mix — daily drivers, trucks, fleet vehicles, and European imports. You won't be doing oil changes all day.
Complete digital vehicle inspections with photos on every car, so the customer sees what you see and the work you found actually gets sold.
Document findings clearly — the write-up is part of the repair, not an afterthought.
Communicate diagnostic time honestly and early, so we charge for the work you're actually doing.
Road test before and after every repair to confirm the fix and catch anything new.
Work independently and get it right the first time — and know the team will jump in when you're stuck.
Keep a clean, safe, organized bay and follow all OSHA and EPA protocols.

What We're Looking For:

3+ years of professional automotive diagnosis and repair experience.
ASE certifications preferred, Master Technician a real plus — and we'll pay for the ones you don't have yet.
Strong diagnostic ability, drivability and electrical especially.
Proven ability to work independently across mechanical, electrical, and advanced diagnostic systems.
A complete set of professional hand tools (we supply the equipment, scan tools, and specialty tooling).
Comfortable documenting work on a tablet — digital inspections with photos are how we operate.
Familiarity with Tekmetric, Mitchell, or ShopWare a plus.
Valid driver's license and clean driving record.
Able to pass a background check and authorized to work in the U.S.
Able to lift 50 lbs and perform physical shop work through the day.

Training and orientation happen at our Crest Hill location before the Naperville store.

We look forward to meeting you.

Zabor Automotive is an equal opportunity employer.
