Job Description
Do you love cars, have a knack for mechanics, or just a curiosity about what makes an engine hum? Here’s your chance to get your foot in the door of the automotive industry, with a shop that’s been a cornerstone of the Ithaca community for over 70 years.
About Us
Our story began in 1947 when a dedicated veteran returned from WWII and founded a small service station with big dreams. Over the years, the shop grew under the care of a family committed to quality service and strong community ties. In 2016, the shop transitioned to new ownership that continues to honor its multigenerational roots by delivering exceptional service, heartfelt connections, and the kind of quality workmanship that makes us a neighborhood favorite.

We’re looking for an Automotive General Service Technician to join our team. If you’re fresh out of high school with a passion for cars or have a couple of years of mechanical experience, we want to invest in you. This isn’t just a job—it’s the start of a career.
What You’ll Do
- Learn the ropes from our dedicated foreman and experienced team.
- Perform essential maintenance tasks like oil changes, tire rotations, and inspections.
- Develop the skills needed to grow into a full-fledged automotive technician.
What You Bring

- Mechanical Ability: Whether it’s tinkering on your own or some professional experience, you’ve got the knack.
- Eagerness to Grow: This is a training ground for your future.
What We Offer
- Hourly Wages: Start at $17-$19/hour.
- Health Benefits: We pay 75% of your health coverage, including family plans.
- Retirement: Simple IRA with a 3% match (up to 15%).
- Paid Time Off: Sick time accrues weekly, plus one week of vacation after your first year (two weeks after your second!).
- Certifications: We’ll support and pay for your ASE certifications and New York State Inspection certification.
- Training: Access to NAPA and ASE training programs—and bonuses for attending.
