Santa Monica, CA Advanced Mechanic Job Description

So, what does the day-to-day life of mechanics in Santa Monica look like? When you join the Firestone Complete Auto Care team as an advanced mechanic, working on cars will take up most of your day, from road testing and fixing vehicles to explaining technical repairs to non-mechanical clients.

Advanced auto technician job responsibilities include troubleshooting and repairing cars to manufacturer guidelines by performing services such as fuel ignition and electrical repairs, as well as brake checks and A/C recharges. Advanced mechanics also mentor their less experienced teammates, overseeing them as they perform everyday services like oil changes and battery installations. Above all, you will help us uphold Firestone Complete Auto Care’s brand promise: to deliver vehicles that are fixed right, priced right, right on time.

A valid auto driver’s license along with the ability to drive customer and company cars is required. You will also need excellent reading, writing, math, and communication skills. A stand-out applicant also has A.S.E. certifications in at least five of A1-48 (L1 counts toward the five, too). Don’t have these qualifications… yet? No worries, you’ll have up to two years from the date of your employment to comply. Santa Monica, CA may also require extra certifications, in which case you’ll be expected to get those, too. Last but not least, you must have the ability (and patience) to mentor your less experienced teammates and advise non-mechanical individuals on inspection findings and service recommendations.
