We’re looking for a Shift Leader —a strong, experienced diesel technician who can lead by example and keep the shop running smoothly during their shift.

This is a working lead position . You’ll still be on the tools, but you’ll also help guide the crew, keep jobs moving, and handle day-to-day issues when management isn’t right there.

If you’re already the tech others look to for answers, this role was made for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

Leading technicians during your assigned shift

Keeping bays productive and jobs moving

Prioritizing work and handling workflow issues

Assisting techs with troubleshooting when needed

Coordinating with Service Advisors

Making sure safety and shop standards are followed

Opening or closing the shop (as assigned)

Communicating issues or needs to management

You lead while working , not from an office.

What We’re Looking For

5+ years diesel or heavy-duty experience preferred

Have you own tools

Strong diagnostic and repair skills

Respected by other technicians

Reliable, calm under pressure, and professional

Comfortable making decisions during the shift

Willing to take responsibility and ownership

Reliable transportation

This is not a management or desk role.

What This Role Is NOT

No hiring or firing

No payroll or HR duties

No policymaking

No micromanaging

Pay (Baton Rouge Market)

$2–$4/hr. more than base technician pay

Typical range: $28–$33/hr. , depending on experience

Overtime eligible

Raises and bonuses available for consistent performance

Why Work With Us

Busy shop with steady work

Clear expectations—no guessing

Respect for skilled technicians

Opportunity to grow into senior or master-level roles

No corporate nonsense—just real work and real pay
