Full Job Description

5 Star Automotive is a growing collision repair center looking for an experienced, hands-on Collision Repair Technician to join our team.

We are looking for someone who truly understands the collision repair industry from the inside out.

This is more than a position for someone who can simply repair dents. We are looking for a well-rounded technician who can look at a damaged vehicle, understand what needs to be done, solve problems, and help move the repair from damage assessment through completion.

You will work closely with our shop manager and repair team. The right person will be someone who can take initiative, think independently, and say, "Let's figure out how to fix it."

What You'll Do

Depending on your experience and skill level, responsibilities may include:

Body Repair & Collision Work

Perform structural and non-structural collision repairs.
Repair dents, dings, creases, and collision damage.
Perform metal straightening and panel repair.
Pull and straighten damaged areas.
Perform frame and structural pulls.
Replace and install body panels, bumpers, doors, fenders, hoods, quarter panels, and other components.
Perform welding and metal repair.
Properly align body panels and vehicle components.
Use body filler and other repair materials correctly.
Sand, shape, and prepare repaired areas for refinishing.
Identify hidden or additional damage during the repair process.
Understand how different components of a vehicle work together.

Paint & Refinishing

Prepare vehicles and panels for painting.
Sand, mask, prime, and seal repaired areas.
Perform paint preparation and refinishing.
Color match and blend when necessary.
Identify and correct imperfections before final delivery.
Maintain professional-quality paint and bodywork.

Frame & Structural Repair

Perform frame and structural pulls when required.
Understand vehicle structure and proper measuring procedures.
Identify structural damage and determine appropriate repair procedures.
Properly position and secure vehicles on frame equipment.
Follow manufacturer and industry repair procedures.

Welding & Metal Work

Perform automotive welding and metal repair.
MIG welding experience preferred.
Understand proper welding techniques for automotive applications.
Repair and fabricate metal when necessary.
Maintain safe welding practices.

Scanning & Technology

Perform or assist with vehicle pre-scans and post-repair scans.
Understand the importance of electronic diagnostics after a collision.
Familiarity with automotive scan tools is strongly preferred.
Understand that modern collision repair involves both mechanical and electronic systems.
Recognize when additional diagnostics or calibration may be necessary.

Mechanical Knowledge

Mechanical experience is a strong plus.

The ability to understand or assist with items such as:

Suspension components
Steering components
Brakes
Cooling systems
Electrical components
Sensors
Lights and wiring
ADAS-related components
Basic mechanical troubleshooting

You do not necessarily need to be a full mechanic, but the ability to understand how mechanical systems interact with collision repairs is highly valuable.

Problem Solving Is Extremely Important

At 5 Star Automotive, we are looking for someone who can think beyond the obvious repair.

Sometimes a vehicle does not go exactly according to the estimate or the repair plan.

We need someone who can:

Look at a problem and determine what is causing it.
Identify additional damage.
Think through different repair options.
Communicate problems to the manager.
Help determine the best way to complete a repair.
Troubleshoot issues instead of simply stopping when something doesn't go as planned.
Work with the team to find solutions.
Understand the difference between a quick repair and a proper repair.

What We Are Looking For

The ideal candidate will have experience in several areas of collision repair, including:

Auto body repair
Collision repair
Frame repair
Welding
Dent repair
Body filler
Panel replacement
Body alignment
Sanding and preparation
Automotive painting or paint preparation
Structural repair
Mechanical knowledge
Vehicle scanning
Pre-scan/post-scan procedures
Troubleshooting and problem solving

You do not have to be an expert in every single category.

However, we are especially interested in someone who has multiple skills and wants to continue learning and expanding their abilities.

Qualifications

Previous professional experience in an automotive body shop or collision repair environment.
Strong understanding of collision repair procedures.
Hands-on body repair experience.
Frame/structural repair experience is highly preferred.
Welding experience is highly preferred.
Paint preparation and/or automotive painting experience is strongly preferred.
Experience using body fillers and repair materials.
Experience with vehicle scanning is a plus.
Mechanical knowledge is a plus.
Ability to diagnose problems and find solutions.
Ability to work independently.
Ability to work as part of a team.
Strong attention to detail.
Reliable and dependable.
Takes pride in quality workmanship.
Ability to follow repair procedures and safety standards.
Valid driver's license preferred.

The Person We Want

We're looking for someone who can walk into a body shop and understand what is happening around them.

Someone who knows:

"This vehicle needs to be pulled."

"This panel needs to be replaced."

"This damage is structural."

"This needs to be welded."

"This needs to be scanned."

"This isn't going to line up correctly unless we address the damage first."

"There is another problem here that needs to be looked at."

That type of experience and problem-solving ability is extremely valuable to our team.

We want someone who can work closely with our shop manager, communicate clearly, and help keep repairs moving forward.

Compensation

$20.00 – $35.00+ per hour, based on experience and skill level

Pay will be based on the candidate's actual experience, abilities, and level of independence.

Highly experienced technicians with strong skills in body repair, frame work, welding, paint, diagnostics, and problem solving may qualify for higher compensation.

Benefits

Employee discount
Flexible schedule
Paid time off
Parental leave
Referral program
Opportunities for advancement
Ongoing learning and skill development

We are looking for someone who wants to become an important part of our team—not someone who simply wants to punch the clock.

If you are an experienced collision repair professional who knows bodywork, frame repair, welding, paint, problem solving, and the day-to-day reality of a body shop, we want to hear from you.

If you can look at a damaged vehicle and know how to figure out what needs to happen next, we want to meet you.

Apply today and tell us about your collision repair experience, your strongest skills, and the types of repairs you are comfortable performing.
