Duties & Job Description for Advanced Auto Techs in Decatur

What’s it like being an auto technician in Decatur? As an advanced technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care, 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 mechanics in Decatur have a number of responsibilities including diagnosing and repairing vehicles to specifications by taking care of things like transmission repairs and alignments, as well as inspections and brake checks. Additionally, advanced technicians mentor their less experienced teammates, assisting them with hands-on tasks such as battery checks and oil changes. Most importantly, you’ll help support our brand’s commitment to delivering cars that are fixed right, priced right, right on time.

Requirements for Advanced Technicians in Decatur

Wondering if you qualify for a Decatur advanced technician position with Firestone Complete Auto Care? You must have at least five years of experience doing car repairs and proof of completion of a Vocational-Technical program in the automotive field. Having a valid driver’s license at all times, combined with the ability to drive customer and company cars is a must. You should also have good writing, math, reading, 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. If Illinois calls for extra certifications, you must also obtain and maintain those. Lastly, you should be able (and patient enough) to mentor entry-level mechanics and advise non-mechanical individuals on services and car lingo!
