Guaranteed salary. Monday–Friday, 8–5. No weekends. Ever.
We’re looking for one exceptional technician. Not five. Not whoever applies first.
We want the tech other techs go to when they’re stuck. The one who reaches for a scope and a wiring diagram instead of throwing parts at a problem.
Please read this first: This is not an entry-level, quick lube, or tire position. If you don’t have at least 5 years as a full-time automotive technician and you aren’t comfortable diagnosing electrical and drivability problems with a scope and wiring diagrams, this isn’t the right job for you. We’d still love to hear from you for future openings, but please don’t apply for this one.
Tired of flat rate?
At Dave’s you get a guaranteed salary plus commission. No feast-or-famine weeks. No working warranty jobs for free. No sitting around unpaid waiting on parts or work. You get paid well for being good, and you get paid on slow weeks too.
Who we are
Dave’s Complete Auto Service is a family-owned independent shop that’s served Council Bluffs since 2013. We don’t want to be the biggest shop in town. We want to be one of the best, for our customers and for the people who work here.
Dave isn’t an owner who hides in the office. He’s a Master Technician with 20+ years of experience who still works alongside the team and helps with tough diagnostics. He knows exactly what technicians deal with every day.
